small update from the tarantula flipping over in my last post
i was trying to get a video of the last moments of his moult and of course when he was so close to being completely out of the old shed my phone cut it off because i ran out of storage🫤but i still got a pretty good video! this is about 35 minutes sped up 20x
think i just accidnrely watched my tarantula flip before moulting
i was just walking past the tank and saw him wiggling, sat down and recorded and he just got into this position and he’s still in it now. you can hear the disbelief in my voice LOL but i’ve been waiting for him to moult for the past three weeks so if i’m right then this is crazy. also yes i know he is kind of fat but he hasn’t eaten since the 1st of this month lol so i have had him on a diet but this is so cool
update on my moult pinning attempt
obviously it’s not perfect but i think it’s okay. in retrospect i should have made it on a different bacmground but i think it’s okay. i did lose the bottom right leg in the process so had to glue it back on lol but i think jts okay
my first attempt at pinning a moult
the abdomen didn’t make it through the process unfortunately so i’m gonna replace it with an oval stone, definitely room for improvement but i think i did okay
rescue
found this guy on my window missing a bunch of his legs. he’s a wild jumping spider, i keep tarantulas but ive never had a jumping spider before but i couldn’t resist helping him lol. i’ve ordered a small tank and some accessories . he’s literally tiny though like less than a centimetre. currently keeping him in a ventilated jar until the new tank arrives. any advice ?
another insane feeding video
i don’t know if she came back out to ask for more or show me what she caught🤣🤣i’m so glad i managed to record this well, i’ve never seen her actually have to go after the crickets because they usually walk right into her mouth so this was a nice change.
mysterious celebratory dance
what’s the occasion
male or female ?
i’m leading toward female. i have been calling him a he since i got him but that’s okay.
first time i’ve managed to get her catching a cricket oncamera
video muted because i got very audible excited. i’ve tried to get decent videos of my two catching prey but they’re never clear enough and this was my best one yet.
my second tarantula! another mexican red knee
this is my lovely lady audrey, accompanying (from a distance) seymore, my first tarantula, both names from little shop of horrors of course. the wooden hide has been replaced for a stone one, and it seems her only current interest is sitting on her doorstep and watching me…quite intimidating really
insane incel encounter ??
sometimes add randoms back on snap to wind them up because i get a kick out of it, anyhoo this was an absolute GEM. i've never encountered anyone like this and didn't think they existed outside of incel forums. this guy openly admitted to being an incel like what on gods green earth. anyway i don’t really post on here so idrk how it works so if ive done anything wrong here’s my apologies ahead of time
this is my new baby seymore
named after seymore from little shop of horrors, i’m getting a larger one next week called audrey.
hair
since actually starting to even grow hair, i’ve always shaved downstairs and it is SO annoying to do so, but every time i go over a week without shaving it gets so itchy and uncomfortable, and i can’t have a weeks worth of hair with out giving in and just shaving it because of the discomfort. does anyone else experience this ? this has been ongoing for 6 years lol (im 19)
