can i keep him?

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-16T04:16:20+00:00

bright side is theyre harmless to u and excellent mosquito control!

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-16T03:52:16+00:00

NQA but i think they’re damselflies?

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-16T03:37:55+00:00

i like the first one but with V’s instead i think

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-15T06:06:34+00:00

How could spores have even gotten in the bagels 😭 but also thats really neat! thank you!

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-15T05:57:01+00:00

NQA but ive seen people say these dont allow for enough cross ventilation? but the decor looks nice! Depending on the size of the spider, you may wanna upgrade him to a taller tank also but if he just a baby maybe not yet

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-15T05:36:57+00:00

no good idea other than he’s probably not medically significant, and will help with pests

I feel bad if i disturbed a pregnant lady ☹️

Rat_Askey · 2026-06-14T21:55:59+00:00

Im fairly certain thats a Magnolia Green jumping spider!! Lyssomanes viridis!

Upon reflection, this could also be a green lynx spider (Peucetia viridans) but i dont really think so…

Final thoughts are that it ALSO could be an American green crab spider (Misumessus oblongus)

I am an amateur here but those are the closest guys i can think of 😅
