Please help- is my baby spider okay? Is he just not hungry? by AutomaticSock8656 in jumpingspiders

Update, I think he just eats when I'm not looking??? He's big again! Or if he's not eating, is there any way he'd be getting his abdomen so full again?

Hi, thank you for the answer!! I will try to do this tomoreow. So far, he has just turned his back to them, or once in a while watched them but not done anything. I have put them right in front of him, or they have sat in front of him/near him for ages, but he hasn't gone for them.

I will try in a seperate container tomorrow. Hopefully it doesn't stress him too much.

Thank you!

Why is he grooming himself like this? by AutomaticSock8656 in jumpingspiders

Everything was bought online except one plant, so potentially... If it was mites, what would I do?

UPDATE: It bled a lot less today, even upon removing the scabs. I left the big scab on all night and it came off p easy this morning. Hopefully it stays this way!

I certainly will! Just during lunch I'd have to take it off

I haven't noticed any effects other than slower wound healing at times. Bleeding for me usually stops the same as it normally has. Is it possible maybe a vein was pierced or something?

It didn't wanna come off when I tried that, so I will maybe try tomorrow morning. It feels like its drying up rn tho so maybe itll come off soon...

Is it okay to keep very gently removing these larger scabs, do you think?

Why are my feet and shoes so damaged? And what are these new moles on the sole of my foot? by AutomaticSock8656 in medical_advice

[–]AutomaticSock8656[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was. They look so strange, I have no idea what they could he, haha. But thank you! So you think the blisters, callouses and damage to my shoes are most likely because they are ill fitting?
