Acanthoscurria Geniculata | Molting 11/3/2022

Here's a molting video of Anna, my Acanthoscurria Geniculata - right from her making a molt mat all the way to her getting her first post-molt roach. She's one of the fastest growing tarantulas in my collection. She only spent 3 weeks in premolt whereas my other species spend months preparing to molt. She was around 5+ inches in legspan before she molted, now she's around 6+ inches. The size she put on in just one molt is insane!
Thank you for watching!

She's so cute man

[@JujuManson]

that spider is GOREGEOUS ! I was thinking that she might be very comfortable around you, because I don't know if tarantulas molt like this in the open, as they are prey in the wild. Plus, she completely flips on her back, which is not a very convenient position, so I thought, what a comfortable spider ! Very impressive and beautiful !

Exfoliation!!

casually scrubbing the entire thing off lol

[@MrTrigun1]

Gorgeous spider! Definitely next on my wishlist. Great video!

[@arachnotherapy7322]

When my collection gets boring, she's always the exception. Adding a Geniculata in your wishlist is definitely a good idea!

Great video! I wonder, is the music from the Witcher 3? Sounds familiar

[@arachnotherapy7322]

Sorry I don't know if it's used in the witcher, I've just known the music from quite some time ago then I learned I can use it as long as I credit the right people in the description box, you can see the details of the misuc there. :) and thank you for watching! :)

Beautiful! I always feel so proud of them after they've molted 😁

Absolutely beautiful spider, lovely to see how her markings got more defined each day following her moult. How clever of you to capture the entire, fascinating moulting process from start, to first meal in her fresh skin. Bravo! I found it so cute how she made herself that comfortable silken blanket, then lay on it on her back to begin the exhausting process of shedding her old skin. Clever creatures! Of course they are pretty much defenceless to predators while moulting, so its a risky business. Had to smile as she pushed off her old skin - it reminded me of someone impatiently pulling off a sweater when they're too hot! She's in beautiful condition - it's great to see someone who takes such excellent care of their arachnids. Respect to you.

Natures awsome 🕷🕸🕷🕸

[@scarf_and_the_squid]

I’m so glad I watched this. I actually have a plushy of this kind of spider! (I named it Teddy :))

[@gabriellachavez46380]

its Morphin Spider

[@seansspoods9521]

Will never get bored of watching them molt, just fascinating no matter how often you watch it 😊

[@glamdolly30]

Have you checked out the English KZbin channel 'Dave's Little Beasties'? I think you'd like it. Like you, Dave takes wonderful care of his spiders and really respects them. I love to see that. He has an amazing array of different arachnids, plus other creatures like scorpions and mossy frogs (which are tiny and cute - they look just like little clumps of fuzzy moss). His enthusiasm for his exotic friends is infectious!

NEW SUBSCRIBER ALERT! 🤗 Edit: I chuckled when it flopped onto its back 😂

[@arachnotherapy7322]

[@tarantularamblings3149]

Got to love the a.gen my first one died after a bad moult out had only just gotten the white knees . Just bought another though .

[@arachnotherapy7322]

Hi! sorry to hear that, It's always painful to lose a sling, emotionally and financially lol. I hope your new one lives a long and healthy life!

[@tarantularamblings3149]

I live in the UK so slings are very inexpensive but i just hate the fact i am not sure what i did wrong .

[@arachnotherapy7322]

@@tarantularamblings3149 probably nothing, sometimes I guess it's just a biological issue

[@tarantularamblings3149]

@@arachnotherapy7322 I didn't realise it was a bad moult till i looked back at the pictures and counted the legs .I was trying to be hands off and leave it alone.As far a i can tell the conditions were just right not too dry or too wet . But it just retreated into its hide and didn't come out . So far the new one is still selling in but it did eat on day two.
