Well a couple of my gals that are in premolt were out and about after i re-aranged and cleaned there tanks befour there molt. First up my pokie "India" Indian Ornamental P. Regalis, shes a whoping 11inches from tip of front toe to tip of back toe untill she molts, she just gets bigger and bigger each time, shes one of the worlds most beautiful tarantulas.
Her color is very dull just befour she molts like most Ts there color gets flunky looking. I got better pics of her i will post tomarrow.

and this is my half grown Brazilian Black G. Pulchra "Black Satin Sassy" although when she is in premolt shes a nasty icky brownish color, after she molts she will once again be a beautiful velvety jet black. Here she is wandering around, thats fresh moss from my back yard i use for the T cages after it has soaked in boiling hot water to kill everything in it then i squeez it out and it works till spring it helps to retain moisture in the T tanks.
Shes like what did you do to my old house mom!! LOL!! She up graded from a 5gal to a 10gal.

Maybe it was the home pc. All works now, while I take a few minutes break at work. They look great! At a tropical fish wholesaler I used to work for, we sold tarantulas - Red Leg and and something else.
 
The white one is really breath taking! just beautiful !

Congrats! :p
 
Love looking at these....don't think I could ever own one(a little too creepy for me, and my wife and two daughters would not go for it either, lol).

Cheers,

Joe
