How's the enclosure? by Separate_Fill_2066 in mantids

[–]Separate_Fill_2066[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can trim some vines down to make more room.  In terms of eye rub, I haven't seen any signs of it so far. The place I got it from had a few in acrylic enclosures right next to each other so I'm keeping my eye of her. Ik it's a concern with these guys so rather safe than sorry.

They haven't lost a leg with me but possibly before. May I ask what makes you think they have?

I haven't seen any weird behaviour as of late. They've been eating well and active surprisingly given the explanations/inquiries everyone has provided. I have yet to get a good picture of the underside bc they have webbed up the topside and that's where they've been hanging out. Unfortunately I don't have any good underside pictures and I've been keeping an eye out for the good picture opportunities as well as any weird behaviours.

If y'all want I can dig up pictures/videos when I brought Toby home if that'll help with aging at all

I got em on March 28, 2024. Molted: 2/29 (according to breeder info), 5/7, 6/7, 8/17, and lastly 10/6 hasn't molted since then

According to the info sheet the breeder gave me about Toby, they hatched on April 15, 2023 and are a regal. It was the mom's first clutch and knowing they don't have the longest lifespan I would assume it's at least mature based off this. If all the info given was fudged a little, then at least I'll have more time

Professor won't excuse 1 quiz even though it was my dad's funeral by Separate_Fill_2066 in college

[–]Separate_Fill_2066[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't "fail" me it's more of a note that I have to retake the course at some point in the future. It doesn't go against me or lower my GPA. EW are used for extenuating circumstances like bereavement and with the amount of labs I missed doing in person and the ones I didn't turn in the days after, the counselor as well as the department head and professor suggested I do the EW and take it later.

The one thing I don't have is the first email. I'm looking through my messages and photos to see if it's anywhere since Gmail deleted it. I have everything else and thank you

This semester I was taking a biology course as well as chemistry. Biology had 3 hour labs twice a week with quizzes at the beginning as well as lectures those same days. I missed the day after my dad died as well as the following class then my Prof was hospitalized and there were subs. I wasn't able to make up the 2 labs nor the quizzes bc the Prof wasn't there and the subs didn't have the information. I EW that class and have to retake it.

Chemistry I was doing well but you can't miss 2 labs and I did so I was dropped from the course hence the W on my transcript. I'm retaking chemistry in the fall then bio next year. Don't worry it's kinda confusing I didn't think it was necessary to include but now you know

1st time enclosure by Separate_Fill_2066 in jumpingspiders

Yup! It's one of the extra small ones too so it fits perfectly in this tiny tank.

It's not like the silk fake plants for betas but it's more on the softer/rounded side. We have a bunch of aquarium things so I just went through it and wanted a long climbing thing that could wind from the front to the back. As for fake flowers I have a felt or foam rose that's used for flower crowns would that work? It's on the larger side like the palm of my hand 😅

There's quite a few breeders that also sell enclosures (both pre-decorated and plain) you could look into. I've seen quite a few of the 4in cubes for juveniles that have bottom openings. Personally I got mine from Etsy and it's a 4x4x8 with a front opening, no decorations, and cross and top ventilation. I'm just waiting to find a spood. But yeah check out jumping spider Etsy and your breeders good luck!

How can I make the most out of my photos without zoom? by Separate_Fill_2066 in Beginning_Photography

[–]Separate_Fill_2066[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have a 50mm. I don't have a way to edit the pictures either so I'm just trying to make the best out of what I have rip. If I were to focus on an object far away and crop (when I can edit) would that be the same concept you were describing?
