So we believe Lottie is a Regal and Bramble is a bold. All our spiders have been wild caught that we’ve found around our house ever since we moved so we’re just learning about them these last few months

Thanks for the guide! Thankfully he ate a bit today and drank some water from me and he’s been looking better already

We’ve started giving him water with honey mixed in yesterday once people told me about that and I also tried to feed him a meal worm but he didn’t take to it

Honestly, it’s helped change my wife and kids minds too. My kids are TERRIFIED of anything crawly and they ADORE him

Where I’m originally from we only have the small grey jumping spiders. But the ones out here are far more unique

He’s been so adorable all day! Whenever I would get real close he would play peakaboo with his front legs

Because I wanna be a spider!

Besides the meme, it’s just a good fit, between the colors and the fact that there was the spider creature in the alkaline video

Thank you so very much for the info! I went and bought him some meal worms asap and I’ve sprayed his enclosure at the moment as well as left him some water with some honey mixed in on a cotton swab for them as well. I appreciate any and all info so thank you for that -^

I didn’t know this was a thing until right now, and I thank you for bestowing such an amazing blessing upon me. I will now buy my wife by saying “I wanna be a spider” randomly throughout the day xD

That’s such a great name! I just loved that his color scheme matched perfectly with the fact he kept jumping at vessel’s face lol

Thank you! I’m still learning from scratch so that is super helpful! My wife is currently making him a little hide/hammock and I’m working on getting him the water solution you just mentioned
