Smudge moulted today, making that the second time she's moulted in my care! Smudge holds a special place in my heart, because she was the first tarantula I ever witnessed in the wild 💕 keep growing stronger, little one!

Tiny Spider on Flickr.

I think this may be an immature Paidiscura pallens or similar species. It was about 1mm long and I mistook it for the spiderling of a larger species at first. This spider is so small and delicate looking, as if its legs are tiny strands of glass. Such a small predator must be feasting on even smaller prey to survive.
