My male has been waiting awhile for the girls to become adults. Hopefully he can wait a few more weeks to mate :) 3 girls molted to adult today, waiting on the last one. My camera kept getting fogged up from all the humidity lol.

 
Congrats she looks great! I hate how this species always moults so close to the floor...

 
I've had two of three females molt to adult this week. In my cages their only choice is from the lid so no issues with the molting location. Both have done fine. This is a great species.

 
Nice! :clap: ....all my lobatas didn't like me or something and tried to molt from the bottom every final molt...so I would always catch them and move their almost molting bodies to the top...

All the best,

Andrew

. I wonder why they do that. Mine all molted low. They Hung from the ceiling til molting time, then moved down to molt. It's crazy...

Remove the option to do so.
