In reptiles - it's the process of sloughing (shedding) the outer layer of skin.
It's called molting
Leaves the arachnid vulnerable
Molting in snakes involves shedding their outer layer of skin in one piece, while molting in arthropods involves shedding their exoskeleton in multiple stages. Snakes shed their skin to accommodate growth and remove parasites, while arthropods molt to grow and repair damage to their exoskeleton. Additionally, molting in snakes is generally less frequent compared to arthropods.
Hens stop laying eggs. The main reason is because they need extra energy to produce new feathers, and another reason is that the pigment in their eggshells comes from the pigment in their feathers. Molting can take between three and six weeks.

Hermit crab molting is a very important part of your new little friend’s life and is vital if he is to grow and even replenish damaged or lost limbs. It refers to shedding of the exoskeleton and formation of a new exoskeleton. I know a lot of new owners really worry about the molting process and are concerned if they have had their crabs for a while and no molting has occurred.As a rule, crabs will molt about once a year, although smaller crabs may molt more frequently. The following site will give you more information about molting and other important topics related to hermit crabs. :)http://www.hermitcrabcenter.com/hermit-crab-molting/
