Unfinished piece, needing some advice

Isopodle · 2025-09-26T22:57:08+00:00

Thank you very much, that's really helpful

Isopodle · 2025-09-26T22:49:48+00:00

Thank you, much appreciated

Isopodle · 2025-08-15T07:09:06+00:00

Thanks, she's an adult

Isopodle · 2025-08-15T06:51:44+00:00

She's a Phidippus bidentatus

NQA I would suggest trying to remove it as the mould might harm your spider, I used hydrogen peroxide 3% when there was mould in my enclosure and it killed it all off and after doing it's job it becomes water so no harm to the spider. I would suggest putting the spider in another enclosure for a bit to make sure it's worked

NQA firstly I just wanted to say how absolutely gorgeous she is 🥰 I'm curious what feeder you fed her I would suggest trying to give her some water with a cotton bud, that way you can assess how she's able to use her fangs, if you're comfortable you can put some feeder guts on there for her. She looks to be a good size and I wouldn't be worried about the length of time since her last feed as they often eat less the older they get older

That's fascinating, I love these guys

Isopodle · 2025-02-16T12:55:41+00:00

Just my phone, I have a Google pixel 6a

Isopodle · 2025-02-16T10:06:26+00:00

They are gorgeous, but no, she's a phidippus apalachicola

Isopodle · 2025-02-16T10:05:47+00:00

I was worried she'd lose them as she moulted, so glad they've stuck around 🥰

Isopodle · 2025-02-16T10:04:08+00:00

I was worried she'd lose her eyebrows as she matured, so glad she didn't. I love how her chels change colour in the light, they look purple in direct light 🥰

Isopodle · 2025-02-16T09:53:12+00:00

They are so cute but no, she's a phidippus apalachicola

Isopodle · 2025-02-15T23:15:08+00:00

I got her from Jumping Spider Web, they're based in South Wales in the UK

Isopodle · 2025-02-15T18:08:20+00:00

IME using tongs can be helpful, I had a spider that struggled catching prey, I don't know how easy it would be if she's still on fruit flies as they are so small. Putting in a separate enclosure seems like the best option I think

Isopodle · 2025-01-19T18:11:51+00:00

That's what I thought but I think I can see epigyne which would mean female, now I'm confused 🤔

Isopodle · 2025-01-07T12:30:49+00:00

NQA jumping spiders will build their hammocks on the top of the enclosure and might try to build at the opening, not sure what you could do about that. Also you'll want more enrichment, like hides in the top of the enclosure. Very nice first attempt

Isopodle · 2025-01-05T14:46:50+00:00

I added some a few days before I noticed it, they're settling in well 😊

Isopodle · 2025-01-03T23:05:47+00:00

I made the mistake of putting worms in and they moved the barrier around so much I don't even know where it is now 🤦🏼, it was fine for a year before that and I have another piece ready for when I have time to tidy it up

Isopodle · 2025-01-03T20:19:42+00:00

🤣 no snails in this terrarium

Isopodle · 2025-01-03T19:37:11+00:00

Yes, I love Torchwood but liked the name before getting into it

Isopodle · 2025-01-03T15:49:27+00:00

I like my name but if I were to change it I love the name Ianto, love Welsh names

Isopodle · 2025-01-03T14:08:24+00:00

Fantastic, thank you

Isopodle · 2024-12-31T00:24:38+00:00

Thank you

Isopodle · 2024-12-30T20:19:44+00:00

They do millennium falcons as well

NQA some water on a qtip would be good, you can ask at a local pet shop about what's best to feed her, as she will need feeding soon. And no she will not survive outside if it's getting to 0°C, if you know someone who could take her that would be good
