"My son is human, but my daughters are spiders" Created by @edgeofthefreak.ca to show off and discuss the amazing qualities of spiders, specifically but not limited to tarantulas. XD I have 4 tarantulas currently, and eagerly post pics and stories here.

Proper-ish update: the kiwi butt has a VIDEO! STILL no molt, but this should give you an idea of what my little Monocentropus balfouri has been able to do. She can fetch crickets! XD Also, I call her Latches 🕷️💜

Escape into some wisteria with me #positivity #endgenocide

Kiwi butt shots! #MonocentropusBalfouri #TarantulaBum

Go to the pet shop for "just a few crickets", and the perky sales associate gets me a "12 pack" instead... ...turned out to be 30 crickets of literal every size in an 8oz deli. 🤢🤮 They now live in two 20oz delis with a veggie buffets XD (dino mat not incl) #Tarantulas #SpiderLife

Smallish update! She's been buried under the cork slab for about 2-3 weeks, and has no visible openings at all. She went in at the purple circle, and dirt has piled up at the orange circle over time. These are about 6" apart, so she's got something big happening XD 💜🕷️

Okay, not a tarantula, but found something very interesting, and needed to share! Have any of you found an ant mimic in your house? Made sure to set them free near the "other" black ants XD

I haven't posted in a bit, so here's a silly vid of my Brachypelma auratum taking her cricket 500 miles to her borrow. She is still not happy in this home, so seeing her decide her burrow is best... is awesome 💜 XD #Tarantulas

🎵Oh, what a feeling When tarantulas on the ceiling 🎶Oh, what a feeling When tarantulas on the ceiling

Those toes tho 👀 #BrachypelmaAuratum #Tarantula #ShyGirl

I know I know, these aren't spiders or tarantulas, and they have WAY too many legs XD My starting brood of Porcellio expansus isopods has arrived! Tough to tell but I might not have boys, or they are heckin immature. We'll see! So excited!

Approaching two months since getting this lil beast, and thought I'd chance a video! XD Note that only leg #3 on the left has full functionality. The rest are basically pool noodles lmao. Still hoping for an early molt! Saga of her journey in my pinned. XD #MonocentropusBalfouri #Fighter

Each one of those legs plays a crucial role in helping Mosaic look like she's just floating these effortlessly. #GBB #Tarantula

Dave White - Tarantula.

Wanted to show off how much my "septapeligic" tarantula has been able to travel! Under that leaf is where she started, and over 6 weeks has made it about six inches! That raised leg is her only good one, but she has palps, fangs and spinnerets! Molt soon plz?? 🕷️💜 bsky.app/profile/arac...

Canadian strawberries! Nope, they aren't in season, but HECK YEA we have greenhouses! 🍁🍓💥
