[Sharing] WHO MOLTED TODAY? (Post molting pics here!)

It is scorpionweek for Sam (me)

My Parabuthus transvaalicus instar 3 moulted to instar 4. It pretty much almost doubled in size as you can see! Insanely beautiful when they just moulted. The other four will follow pretty soon!

Cheers

Spoiler:

The size increase is awesome with each molt. At 4i, his/her "thickness" of the tail is already showing.
Nice one and more to come

For sure! :-) Just need to keep the lid tightly closed now since it can almost reach out. Being able to do this makes him almost as big as my androctonus bicolor male.. if not equally big at instar 4

crazy!

love that hh moult and including pictures, sowhon

wow, it's time to change to a bigger housing then pluto.... congratez on your PT molt!

Thanks Sow, will change its housing next moult.. it will be necessary then. Atm I think its perfect (except for the height, this bugger can already sting well I presume so it is fun times) :-)

All my parabuthus moulted :-D crazy buggers! 4 on one day!

my lq molted to 5i on saturday 27 days inbetween 4i and 5i

two of my HH molted from 2i>3i today

gz on the moults, exciting isnt it.. gorgeous too

yup, patiently awaiting for the others to be following their foot steps...
thanks pluto

Great pics sowhon
Congrats those little H.h's are beautiful.

My female imp molted a few weeks ago. She's my first scorpion, but for sure not my last.
Here's a few pics to commemorate the big event.


I suspected something was up when she stopped eating and holed up down in her burrow for several days.


Plump and ready to molt soon. You can see the new exoskeleton under the old.


Two days later and the deed is done. The old exoskeleton is the black carcass on the left. Everything in grey is the new
improved scorp. No, her telson does not glow, it's just the flash. It looks like she doubled in size, but I think the camera
is playing tricks. She did get much larger, however.


Two weeks after molting, she's hard and black and shiny and hungry.


Dinner time. Yum, yum, yum, tasty cricket.

Nice. Congrats! Your first molt?

It looks like a very healthy giant for a change.

My androctonus longecarinatus moulted from i3 to i4 just now (still at it).. it would be nice to see if the final colours are coming through now.

The second one is still i3

Excellent Sam. Keep us posted...

Pics Sam!!

It is totally weird. It doesnt seem to be getting black at the legs atm. My own brood i2 is way way wayyyy darker... despite this one being i4 now.

Ofcourse time will tell and this one will darken this moult... but still, far from black!

aww it's so nice, how big is that sorry?

and reply to me please

1 of my mauritanicus just moulted to i3. Gorgeous tbh.

Snap Snap.

Is it the first one to molt from them?

Jup :-) So the other ones will follow pretty soon I think :-)

Sorry for the quality and angles, did it quite fast not to stress it out too much
