Iris is up!

This was her first molt with me. She was down 59 days. Short molt for a boarderline jumbo. :crabbigsmile:

What a lovely lady :D ! So glad she had a successful molt -- it seems the larger they are, the trickier it is for them. It's now 57 days for my medium PP Harry. Felix (a bit smaller than Harry) went down the same time but came up at 39 days, all nicely molted. C'mon, Harry!!!
PPs are Big Enzo, Charles Paris and Mr Pinch

I was really surprised that she came up so quickly. She is so hairy. C'mon Harry!

Borderline jumbo? Try more, borderline beauty. :) Such a pretty crab, love the large claw she has.
