It's amazing how they have their own pedicure shops down there, isn't it?

More color usually comes within the second or third molt. My E Kilimanjaro is just starting to get a blue tint and I've had him for almost a year and two molts. I think he will be much more blue by his next molt.

Congrats!

First molts always feel like such an accomplishment. It means you're getting more experienced at being a crabber!

I didn't notice before I took these pics he is actually getting some color his legs were as pale as the rest of him before the molt
