Some of the new decor is now available in the online shop.
The Explorer Tube is my favourite so far; it's just over 10 cm in length, and you can poke moss into one or two of the holes to add more enrichment for your spider. Attach it to the roof of the enclosure or the side, lengthways or slanted OR keep moving it every now and then to keep their environment new.

A little look at what I'm working on here at Arachnamoria:
A magnetic Hammock Hideaway Hole for the corner of jumping spider enclosures.
It will be available in a range of rainbow metalics once I'm happy with the design.

What's up, Spider Addicts!
Some of you may have noticed that certain products are no longer available in the online shop. There are two reasons for this: 1st is that I've cut down on products that take a lot of time to sit and make due to my ongoing battle with tumours. The 2nd is because I now have a massive 3D printer! So some of the products will now be made using this. It will take a little time as I (I say 'I', but it will be the other half) learn to design pieces.
PLEASE NOTE: Anyone who has ordered these products to go with their spider order, please don't worry, I have plenty of stock to fulfil all the orders.

Here is a picture of Floki my hyllus diardi. He's a sproingy little devil, so it's not easy to photograph, but he sure is pretty. I'm just in love his fluffy little face.

Another silver Florida fresh out of her moult to maturity, with pretty cosmic chelicerae. This is Andromeda and she's a total queen, demanding to sit on my collar most days and oversee my work.
I utterly believe she is judging me. I wonder what she would say if she could speak?

Goblin and Silver Floridas, and Apalachicolas are now available on the website.
Please note it is far too cold to post baby spiders, the weather looks to be warming up around the 13th Jan. If the warm weather creeps up sooner, I will ship. Keep an eye on emails for updates once you purchase x

I want to take this moment to thank you, every single one of you 🫵
Without your continued support, I can't do what I absolutely adore every day, and what I adore is caring for jumping spiders.
Whether I'm helping you get ready for your first or helping you with excuses to get your 30th, I am doing something I love.
2024 was hard work but massively fulfilling, and so I hope, no... I know 2025 is going to be just as awesome.
I promise you'll always see my passion for these adorable spiders no matter what year it is.
So to all my fellow jumping spider addicts and all their beautiful 8-legged lovelies, I hope 2025 is your year. I shall be sure to raise a glass to each one of you tonight.
Happy New Year 🍾🎆

That face 😆 I promise you she was actually very keen.
Deannas daughter Hestia from last years Giant breed line has accepted the handsome and equally large Hermes as her partner. Hopefully, some more giant babies will be on their way soon.

From myself and all the spiders here at Arachnamoria, have a wonderful day.
Thank you for all your continued support and custom.
Thank you for all the photos and message updates on your spider.
Most importantly, thank you for loving these extraordinary creatures as much as I do.
If you need me today, just let me know.
Lots of love and 8-legged hugs, from Sian the Spider Wrangler
P.s: Thalassia (pictured) has laid her first batch of eggs. Dark Goblins incomint!

A Christmas treat here at Arachnamoria as after many months in the fridge, and then some time in my heated baby spider drawers, our Robin moth emerged early yesterday morning.
This is Poopy, named by my daughter because he pooped on me.
It has been an amazing experience to hold them today as I have memories somewhere in the attic of my mind of my father rearing moths when I was very, very little.
Such a floofy little dude (the moth not my father) 🧡🤎💛🩶

I really do dream about spiders, a lot actually.
I dreamed last night I had a batch of eggs hatch and every one of the babies was white (and also already i5). I was so happy I brought tons of new enclosures to keep them all (sorry keepers who wanted to buy them), but I couldn't remember where I put the babies. Looked for hours and couldn't find them again. So I've woken up flustered about non-existent missing babies 🤣

Two spiders out from moult today, and I think I've been hoodwinked by both of them.
This is Artemis and Nyx; I was pretty sure they were both green chelicerae females...
But now I'm pretty sure Artemis is a silver male and Nyx... I don't actually know.
Artemis (now i7) has coning palps and no sign of the orange that made me believe they were female. I mean I should have guessed from the white markings but all that orange tricked me.
Nyx (now i9) looks like they have coning plus the diamond butt and long legs of a male, but at i9 it should be more obvious, AND they still have the peach and brown markings of a female. Waiting for her to finish her locust so I can see if there is an epigynum.
This is why I don't trust myself to sell spiders sexed 🤣

My adorable Nook just had a date with Thalassia the black Florida, and yet I'm the one getting felt-up.
Nook the Goblin was supposed to go on the website to find his forever home, but instead, he hid inside a nook in the cork bark and couldn't be tempted out. I had no choice but to build a baby proofed enclosure around a large bit of bark. And that is how I came up with the excuse to keep him 😏.
Fingers crossed for a new breedline: Dark Goblins 🧌

The online shop will be closing Wednesday this week 11/12.
With an exceptional amount of christmas orders come in over the weekend and my health taking a turn for the worst I am really struggling on my own here at Arachnamoria: the tree has only just gone up but it's still only partially decorated.
I have decided to close the shop a week early to allow me to catch up with all orders, rest, and get ready for Christmas.
Giftcards are still available to purchase and are delivered digitally, and spiders will also go online when they are ready to rehome and will travel to their new home when the weather permits next year.
Thank you all
Sian the Spider Wrangler

SHOP CLOSING DATE CHANGE
Tis that season once more. So here is some important info about Arachnamoria over the Christmas period. Please check back regularly for updates.

The online shop will be closed from 11th December till 2nd of January. You will be able to buy still but no orders will be shipped during this time.
BUT gift card codes are all online so will still be available, and will arrive as an email after checkout.

Due to the cold weather moving in there will be no more spider shipping this year. Spiders will still go online as and when they are ready to rehome.

Royal Mail starts to struggle around this time of year, so normal equipment deliveries may take longer than usual to arrive. Please allow 5 working days after you get the shipping email from me for the parcel to arrive before dropping me a message so I can chase Royal Mail.
As the month goes on, I can not guarantee parcels will arrive before christmas as once I post them, they are at Royal Mails mercy. I would suggest buying any books, gift code presentation cards, or equipment well in advance.

If you are worried about your spider and need advice I am around to help.
EVEN ON CHRISTMAS DAY
A few minutes of my time is nothing compared to a whole day for a worried keeper, I'll only be in my pjs eating mince pies so it's no hassle.

Whoops, almost forgot to say that more babies are available on the website.

Ramblings of a Spider Wrangler:

Now this might be just me, and I am on some pretty strong painkillers so I may just be a bit 🤪 alongside my normal level of spidery insanity, but has anyone else gotten to a stage where jumping spiders no longer look like spiders? Not like how they act like cats or puppies, which is freaking amazing, but as in they are now a totally new creature quite removed from spiders when I look at them. Don't ask me what this new creature might be because I can only gesture wildly at the space between beetle and bunnies, it's like trying to pick a whole new colour.
Non-spider addict folk often go "oh gosh no, that's a spider" when shown photos (whether they asked or not) and my brain is confused how they could see a spider at all, when they don't look anything like spiders to me. I get it though: sure they have an unnecessary number of eyes, a double helping of legs, a fondness for flies and web knitting butt fingers...but I can't see a spider anymore.
Perhaps it's like when you say a word so many times it loses all meaning and becomes a weird garble of sounds... like pocket.
Pocket.
Pocket.
Po-k-it,
stupid word.
I don't mean to demonise spiders, I love my tarantulas, but they are spidery still and the long legged tiger rump gives me the heebie jeebies.
But jumping spiders, they give me the urge to pet them and baby talk them and buy them a pony.
I mean if this is just me, then I probably have to accept I have gone a little mad, which would explain why I'm now sitting here thinking about designing a pocket to carry jumping spiders in.

Introducing Pegasus, my third silver Florida. She's such a little super star, and is so adorable to hold.
Hopefully she keeps her silver fluff for future breeding. One of my other silver Florida ladies is Cobweb, who has babies ready soon, and you can read all about her on the breeding page of my website.
