"don't talk to me or my daughter ever again" edition

Found a juvenile widow in my charcoal chimney. She's still got the gold stripe down her back. I'll have to get her set up with a bigger enclosure soon but I think she's okay in the sling box for now. Also think the middle widow is working on some eggs, it's been a week or so since she ate and she's still looking thicc.

I want to get a jumping spider, but I feel like I'd do a shit job of decorating his enclosure.

This is the first jumping spider I've ever had. I found some twigs and bark outside my apartment, baked them on low heat to sanitize them. And also bought some things off Amazon. She mostly just patrols the middle/top areas. She made her new nest cocoon in the top front right. It's a 11.7x6x6 water tight enclosure.

What do you feed her? How much does she eat?

Love her. How do you let her out without fear of her jumping somewhere?

I've been giving her flightless fruit flies mostly. Like 6 or so every other day. But I let her try out a meal worm for the first time and she liked it. Left a neat empty worm tube. I'm waiting several days for her to shrink back to normal size before feeding her again.
>>5052609
Thanks, her name is Elise and she has a heart on her abdomen. Still a juvenile.
I have the little deli cup the breeder kept her in. So I use that to transport her to the bathroom. I have cats so I close the door when I let her hang out with me there. She enjoys walking on the counter or my hand. I'm glad she doesn't actually jump unless she is already close enough to hop to another surface.

How big is your enclosure for hissing cockroaches? I was planning on getting a couple, just to keep not to raise a colony, but the guides I read range from 5 gal too 20 gal, I assume 20 gal is only if you plan to breed a colony right?

Jfc that is the cutest spider I have ever seen. She’s one tiny top hat away from cartoon status.

I'm excited to see what she looks like after she molts. She started on Oct 5th and has been resting ever since.
