I believe it to be in heavy pre-molt as it hasn't eaten in 2 weeks and move VERY sluggishly during the rehousing efforts. I tried my best not to stress it too much and I believe things went very well.

What size is the P.ornata round about? Because I think mine came from the same sack but don't think it's anywhere near a molt. Would be interesting to see how different their molt cycles are?

Also the B boehmei is looking good!Nice

I reckon the P ornata sling is about 2.5cm. Perhaps slightly larger.

I got it from scarab who in turn got a few from Cerat.

Got mine from Scarab too. Let me know when it does molt, want to see how far apart their molting cycles are i.e. how it is affected by temp, humidity, feeding and light.

Will do.

I had a similar request on the previous forum.

A friend of mine bought G pulchripes slings from the same sac that I did, his sling molted about 2 weeks before mine due to heating differences.

Will keep you posted when my P ornata sling molts.

I received my 3 from Cerat, and so far none of mine have molted. They are all active and out on their cork bark hides until I move close to them, then they all disappear under the wood and I don't really get a good look at them. I would say mine are also about 2-2.5cm and I cannot really tell if they are close to a molt or not at this time.

But I will post in the molt section as soon as I find they've molted
