Hey guys, I’ve been wanting to get a good ol’ spider for my birthday and I’ve been wondering if you know any good sites to order from? My budget for the spider, enclosure, ETC is from $80-$100.
Is itsybitsyfriends ethical/reputable? I’ve been considering their $80 kit (soiderjumper included)
And in terms of substrate- could I just do coconut with a paper towel under it? In case my critter wants to hide in it, although I think they don’t do that much.
Will they do fine with real plants? I’ve seen a few wild jumpers playing around in the kudzu, or would it be more beneficial to just get fake clutter from a local pet store? In case I DO decide with real plants, how would planting go? Just… paper towel, soil, plant, coconut? And would moss thrive in those conditions?

I’m not sure if this qualifies for the subreddit, but I need help.
Hello! I’m a new spider owner, and I own a small jumper. Specifically a bold jumper (not sure of the ethics of selling him but I saw he was cheap.)
He’s been sitting in his little silk hammock all day, I’d given him a cricket and I think he got it while I was at school since I don’t see that cricket anymore (rip)
He’d just escaped yesterday, btw… 🥹🥹 I’m a horrible owner… gulps.
I’m not sure if he’s going to molt since he’s been in his hammock but he also ate food so…??? If anyone can help me out pls!!!
