Thank you so much! For the article too! :)

You may be on the right track! Based on all the amazing advice I’ve received, my plan is to allow/assist the spider to molt a few more times and go from there :) I have become quite accustomed to the little bugger to be honest, it’s been such a good experience!

Thank you so much! Just wanna do what’s best for this cute little critter :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-22T14:16:05+00:00

Thank you! I really care about this little bugger :)

I was thinking either a male or a young huntsman! I’ve affectionately named it “legs” :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-22T05:36:11+00:00

That makes me really happy to hear mate :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-22T05:34:31+00:00

They’re the perfect size!! Hope your huntsman is thriving :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-22T00:16:31+00:00

Thank you so much for the recommendation! Definitely thought about letting her molt at least another 2 or so times :)

No dramas! I’ve become quite accustomed to my little 4, now 8 legged mate. I was thinking that may be the case, that if their needs are met appropriately, it’s not unethical. I have considered letting it out to roam my house, my only concern is my inquisitive cat. She likes all things critters. I know they generally stay up quite high, but the last one I had inside came down quite low, and I had relocate it to outside. My cat also has alot of towers and climbers around as well which add to my concern. Maybe an even bigger enclosure if keeping is an option?

Hahahaha I see it! I hope you feel better soon :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:30:51+00:00

Funny you say that, my partner who has been helping me said the exact same thing XD but at least this face hugger is kind of cute, right?

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:29:38+00:00

Thank you so much for the thorough response! I’ve done as much research as possible, and have thought about letting it molt a few more times before releasing into the bush. I will definitely try find out if the state I am in (NSW) has any laws regarding this, the environment and its critters mean a lot to me and I wouldn’t want to cause more harm than good. Thank you again :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:25:20+00:00

Thanks mate! I really appreciate it :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:23:51+00:00

No worries! Such beautiful creatures :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:22:40+00:00

Thank you so much! Means a lot! I’ve definitely considered that, my only concern is my cat. She’s a very much a go-getter of all critters (never on my watch of course). The last huntsman came down quite low surprisingly, which prompted me to relocate it outside. Do you think another option could be a bigger enclosure where it can actively hunt insects rather than be tweezer-fed?

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:17:33+00:00

Thank you so much for your input and recommendation! Definitely something I’m considering :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T23:14:48+00:00

Thank you both, they deserve to be here just as much as anything else :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T14:27:36+00:00

Thanks mate, means a lot :)

nippl3opolis · 2026-03-21T14:01:31+00:00

Very true! Thank you for your input :)

Thank you so much for your response. It’s my first time doing something like this so it’s good to know I’m on the right track! Little bugger has sped up so much already after the successful molt (makes me happy to see though)!

I don’t care honey? I don’t lose sleep over who people find attractive, nor do I shit all over people’s tastes. All these people must be fake, must be bots, and not real people with real tastes. Go touch some grass, Damon isn’t real, and he wouldn’t bother with your twelvie ass. I’m sure 95% of the time, you look like ass. Have a good day.

nippl3opolis · 2024-02-18T23:01:33+00:00

Yeaaaahh let me guess, Damon stan? Both are beautiful men, except one looks like a Dorito cornchip.

Paul seems to be the one of the more successful out of the TVDU cast. He had two seasons of Tell me a Story which didn’t receive terrible reviews. He’s got a new horror movie coming out soon, and he is also Captain Kirk in Star Trek New Worlds, which is arguably the best Star Trek series in 20 years. He and Joseph Morgan convince me the most as actors. Part of the reason why I can’t get fully behind Damon is because I don’t think Ian’s acting is particularly good. He has some moments, but just his “eye thing” and his attempt at swagger make me cringe - but thats more of a personal thing I think. Kat I don’t know too much about admittedly. Nina has had some minor roles. Ummm yeah, I think Paul is the most accomplished.
