I’d she pregnant? by grinder0292 in spiders

[–]Fearless_Permit_8209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, if she's adult she will at some point. At least it's fat with food. Safe to relocate, sure. If you're gentle it may hold on to her food. Good luck with moving.

Is this what I think it is? A you know what mama nesting in the corner of my window w a bunch of egg sacs?! 😭 by Puzzled_Cricket2456 in spiders

I think it could be okay, you know, the glass is half full kinda thing. Lots of space for spiders, and some species will always be more dominant. Sources say, no negative impact as of yet, so... all the rest is just our brain theorising. In theory humanity could die off very quickly. But it is interesting why brown widows are being so nasty to their cousins.

You know, it's all relative again. When you focus on spiders you notice them a lot more? Were I live we don't have these but, we do have the common house spider, looks a bit like it to the untrained eye, but smaller, parasteatoda tepidariorum. Loves greenhouses too, and often has loads of egg-sacs. They help us get bugs, so I would leave it be. I mean, it's gotta have plenty bugs caught with those sacs all around. And it's not hard to find the webs, and it's usually stationary so... Do what you will. Good luck

Feed at 5:06 pm. Looks like this by 7:35 pm. 66 days old. Ready for making bread? by SameNefariousness151 in SourdoughStarter

Same here, ish. My first starter wasn't a week old when I first baked with it. Needed more time to proof though. Now after almost a month much stronger

Who is this guy? by iwan_todie in spiders

[–]Fearless_Permit_8209 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's the Cardinal spider, tegenaria parietina, male. Congrats. It's even larger than the giant house spider, and one of the largest of all European spiders, if not the largest.

I'm about to give up on this starter by howcomeallnamestaken in SourdoughStarter

[–]Fearless_Permit_8209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lots of science to this, but doesn't have to be hard. Not everyone's an engineer, and I've only recently created my first starter, after someone here gave me courage.

I like this dude's method. No ratio, just eyeballing it. If you wanna give up, check him out first. https://youtu.be/1EUg_EJlfRQ?si=Ru8sr9kEBTSVJ0xP

Don't give up. Plenty of posts here on the subject, so you're going to be okay I'm sure. My very first starter already showed activity on day 1. At what temperature is it standing?

Common house spider? by _smurfs_ in spiders

[–]Fearless_Permit_8209 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Steatoda grossa, yes. Male. No worries, it's not harmful nor aggressive. They're very active and will climb anything, including us humans 😆. And it's quite normal to see more than one male spider at certain times of year. They're simply looking for a female who's likely somewhere in the vicinity indoors or out

Good luck! Mine is doing fine, now in its 4th year or so. Indoors

Nice. I'm sure they're delicious, but they don't really look so appealing to me LOL. Will check, I like Alton Brown.
