  • why does tarantula's molt upside down??

  • @madturtlefan: My best guess is because it's easier to push the molt up and off than do the reverse.

  • What camera do you use?

  • @KoriTamashii I use a cheap Cannon powershot LOL!!

  • Mine just moulted last night!! How do you capture ALL THAT FOOTAGE? What program/software do you use?

  • @xDeAdlYSp1Derx My camera has the trimelapse and I speed it up with microsoft movie maker.

  • this is when i think i got two spiders haha

  • why do they move their legs side to side?

  • Thats freaken amazing! its like taking off a full body costume lol

  • hi, i just have a couple questions. 1. how long does this process take once it starts? 2. what's the purpose? 3. how long does it take for the spider to recovery, if t all, becuase it looks like it would be very vulnerable after that...thanks!

  • stunning video! you've got me addicted to ur t series keep em coming! p.s anyone in the uk know a decent t vendor?

  • Your upgrad is complete. But you must build additional Pylones!
