Thank you, i try to hang out with them every chance i get, especially feeding time. And yes they are very friendly, but some can be a bit skiddish like my wild caught who was caught as an adult, so its best to catch them when theyre still young(5th instar or so). They really are so cute and there are so many types in my state. I have 3 Phiddipus Audax spiders(the larger species), two males and one female, all three of them with different smiley shaped designs on their butts. Lol and I can handle and stare at them all day long. Never thought I'd coax a spider onto my hand and play with them, but here I am. If youre interested in finding one or 2, spring is coming so you could start searching your area, you should see what species your state has and go out with a clear plastic box so you can safely catch see what you've got. When I started that's how I did it, I'd catch, view with a magnifying glass, and release where i found it. It was a lot of fun and I'll be doing it this spring again. I highly recommend.

So a game of Marco Polo ended with you and hubby in bed and you took the opportunity to put your babies inside your ex's corpse? That's unique. Lol where would they have been laid if the chance of killing the ex didn't present itself? In the basement?

Have you ever seen a jumping spider? I used to hate spiders, still kinda do, but I have 3 jumpers and I love them. I only handle 2 of the 3 because my wild caught one is a little jumpy(lol), and i hand feed them too. They're very easy pets and they don't bite, well, only if they feel life threatening pressure. They don't live that long though, so I'm not looking forward to losing them, my wild caught boy is obviously getting closer to his time and idk if I'm mentally prepared for what's coming. Never thought I'd have love like this for a spider, much less 3. Oops, I rambled. Sorry.

Perhaps because his wife truly favored Fiona above everyone else.

Since she holds her breath, and she has great vision, maybe she exhales air and follows the air bubbles upwards?
