Rie's Jumping Spooders

I misjudged how much Miss Pinky needed for a meal. So when I went to take the remainder from her, she said no and buried her entire face into the mealworm with such sass. 🤣 She demanded a few more minutes, so of course she got want she wanted. She has such an attitude but I love it and her.

Rehousing Pinkie today but all she wanted to do was take a nap on my hand. She also nibbled on my hand too. She doesnt bite but she definitely likes to taste my hand. Lol shes done this since i3 and She just molted into i8! Used to freak me out so bad. Pinkie is one of Esme's babies. 🩷 ᄽ°○○°ᄿ

Found a baby jumper today while babysitting my niece and nephew! They were both so gentle with this little spood! Lyla thought it was so cool how it could hang off her hand. John who is scared of bugs even held the jumper. But I didn't get a photo as I was making sure he didn't squish it. ᄽ°○○°ᄿ

Found this beauty yesterday, a three-lined maevia - Paramaevia poultoni! 😍 Sweetest thing ever. Gave her some fruitflies and released back where she was found. ᄽ°○○°ᄿ

Sweet boy Enzo 💚ᄽ°○○°ᄿ He's 17 months old and still going strong. But I can't clean his webbing anymore as that is his lifeline to get around his home. The picture doesn't even capture how many 'roads' he has created for himself. Enzo is still able to make webbing, but his grip is almost non-existent. 🥺🕷

Found this cutie outside today! Noticed there was something different about her. She is missing an eye. But that didn't stop her from catching a big caterpillar earlier today!

Found this qt in my house the other day just staring at me. She was so adorable and friendly. Jumped right onto my hand. She didn't want to leave the catch cup I had her in. I used a piece of grass so gently move her out of the cup outside and she got spicy and started biting the grass. 🤣ᄽ°○○°ᄿ I really wish I could keep them all. This little one was such a character and very photogenic! 🥹

My old girl, Mama Esme decided to come out and say Hi to me today! She is doing soooo well and eating for me! She's never shown any interest in me at all, and if she did acknowledge me, she'd give me a threat pose. 🤣 I'm so happy Esme said hi to me today. She's getting ready to lay another clutch! Her first clutch with me has 14 slings. 2 passed, but the remaining 12 are thriving at i3 now! ᄽ°○○°ᄿ
