My plaloma just molted and it got me to wondering. Do dwarf tarantulas molt as often as other spiders thier size? Or other spiders at thier maturity level?

Like, will my 1.5" adult paloma molt once per year like a regular size adult female, or every few months like a 1.5" juvi would?

Wel thanks! The dwarves in general are vertainly my favorite Smile Next I'm wanting to get some Holothele and cyriocosmus! Eventually I want to try my hand at breeding one of the drawf species as well.
