Good morning from The Bug Shack!
Whats happening today:
-Our wolf spider, Akeela, molted last night. I might have missed it but I caught him snacking on his old molt.
-Tansy’s babies from her first egg sack started dispersing (She’s in the butterfly net).She also laid her 2nd egg sack this morning. its huge and she didn’t spill her eggs this time.
On the agenda for today:
-Feed the freshly emerged i2 slings from Alphie (P. regius), Judy (P. johnsoni), Foxtrot (P. regius), Bettie (P. regius), and Charlie (P. regius).
-We will also be attempting to mate our pair of Phidippus nikites again, after yesterday’s failure 😝
Have a beautiful day!

I am very happy to see this beautiful P. nikites moving around! He came out of his mature molt yesterday and went straight into a death curl. He stayed like that all of yesterday while I placed him into a deli cup with a moist napkin and gave him sugar water on qtips. Today he started moving around. His movements are still sloppy but I am hopeful he will continue improving! It took him exactly 1 year and 1 month to reach maturity.

Hello, I’m Matilda. I don’t build hammocks. Nothing wrong with me, just lazy.
