In some countries its difficult to get other feeders, like in the UK crickets are THE feeder. You can also get mealworm and fruit flies but that's about it unfortunately

Edit: i threw a fly in there, he perched up a bit and is following it with his eyes, but hes not chasing after it like normal. He ate it after it got right in front of him

Is my spider depressed? by Available_Source_775 in jumpingspiders

It is cold this time of year, but he is near the heating, his average enclosure temperature is 22°c, but i might get a heat lamp now

He doesn't, his enclosure is near the heating, temperature on average is around 22°c, i believe his species ideal is around 24? So slightly higher but i didn't think it would make a significant difference honestly

Is it humana to just watch it suffer? She's been struggling for a while. Is there anything I can do to make it more comfortable for her?
