Pumpkin update

No, not about actual pumpkins, but about my tarantula Pumpkin the Pamphobeteus sp. "platyomma". I mentioned in my last post that he'd molted, and I got a really nice photo of him (hopefully her) showing off his size and colour.


Pumpkin! The black thing is a pop bottle cap, for size comparison.


The molt. Sadly the abdomen got all curled up before I could look for lady bits!
 
I figure it's best to just get these out of the way, since I'm driving to Montreal this weekend for another Reptile Expo and I'm planning on coming back with about another half dozen tarantula spiderlings. Pterinochulous murinus, here I come!

Cheers!
