New addition :)

So there was a wolf spider trying to go into my neighbors house which would've ended with a squished spider so I caught it and put it in with a lot of eco earth so it could make a burrow excited to watch it grow

Ive been thinking of keeping those, and Ph. audax as well, since reading Enn49's thread on her regal jumper.

it's really small at the moment.. not much bigger then the lid to a water but it was fast lol... I gave it awhile then added a dubia nymph.. maybe atleast one of my spiders will eat a dubia lol

I know they balk at them at first, but they WILL eat them. Once they eat one its cool, they like them after that. Keep trying

I used to keep them as a kid! I will defietly be spider hunting once the weather warms up...I have all kinds of amazing spiders in ontario!

i want another P. audax. Had one last year but he passed, I caught him as an adult. Hopefully i can find some babies this spring. We have tons of the M. bivittatus (Grey Jumper, or Grey Wall Jumper) here. I'll have to get another one of those too

damn, the place i was hoping to order some of the more rare jumpers from is gone www.phids.net doesn't exist anymore

black with white spots is the P. audax or Bold jumping spider. I want the regal jumper (P. regius) too, but they're just in the south east states like georgia, florida, etc. they like it humid and hot. they're the largest jumper in the states, and the most colorful. instead of the neon green chilicerae that most jumper have theirs are blue to purple.

I sometimes find audax with blue chelicera but its rare, mostly green.

after a couple days of getting used to its new surroundings I finally got the wolf spider to eat.. he just took down a cricket as large as he is! I didn't have any small ones but it didn't mind.. watching it take down the cricket was awesome.. it jumped on the crickets back and went for a wild ride but never let go.. super exciting event
