foot fetish or odd behaviour?

i believe she’s just cleaning but i’ve never seen multiple legs constantly moving while cleaning?

i see her venom dripping and licking her toes, so i’m sure it’s all good

twitchy leg or just pissed?

lol my HP was sold to me as a “feisty one”
welp there she was wiggling her fangs at me when i picked her up at the expo.

this is my first old world rehousing and im nervous and this enclosure is going to be hard to get her out of without any escapes 😅 although, i noticed her leg twitching? i have tried a few times to cup her and she throat posed sooooo is she just pissed off?

rehousing my avic took a lotttt longer than expected lol…

she’s so stubborn and will wiggle her butt and her spinnerets will start going 🥹 is so cute but omg to get her into the cup took like 15min and then she sat in the cup for another 10.

even my gentle taps with a paintbrush didn’t work. she’s adorable❤️

hello! i want to try new substrate combinations that can hold humidity.

right now i’m only using coco coir but it doesn’t seem to hold humidity too well alone.

are different substrate mixes used for different species? i only have arboreal and 1 terrestrial T’s, i want to get into fossorial as well.

please tell me what works best for your set ups!

thanks in advance :))
