I'd expect a Mexican Red Knee to start showing colour at approx 2cm .

Ven(ezeulan) red stripe? If that's Avicularia minatrix then they kinda have something akin to their adult colours from hatching... I don't know when the loose the booties, mine just moulted and still has them at ~2cm (well, I think, I'm a horrible judge of these things).

I should be so lucky It hides in it's tube web in a piece of bamboo all the time.

Also I'm a terrible photographer, seriously very bad... I tried to snap a pic of the moult and even that I couldn't get it to focus on.

Just think an adult minatrix, but with a pinker carapace and legs, with little black shoes. Abdomen stays the same throughout life.

OK, I have no idea, do you have scientific names for these spiders? I mean common names are useless/confusing.
