Hey, has anyone got the number for the weather delivery people? I think they have sent the wrong climate pack 🥵
Keep an eye on your spider enclosure temps over the next few days, you can share your fans or pop the enclosure into your coolest room if their temp is peaking above 29°c.
It's also a good idea to give them a second mist in the evening.
Something to be cautious of is double checking enclosures are closed and perhaps not handling them, only because if a spiders decides to make a break for it, it is highly likely to make a beeline for the warm, bright window that will most likely be open. I mean, I could just be paranoid because my spiders would relish the chance at giving me extra stress like that.
Crikey... I can hear the neighbours questioning my sanity already if I had to stand in the garden shouting demands and insults at my house because there is a spider off on a jolly towards the roof.
I know the fire services rescue cats from trees... but what about jumping spiders in my guttering? 🤔
The upside of the weather for me is that spiders get rather frisky when it's warmer. Hopefully, Pegasus here fancies a date with Spud; see if we can make some more silver Floridas.

There are currently only virgin spiders here at Arachnamoria. I haven't started to pair yet, so a wait for a baby is at least 3 months.
I am always happy to let people know when the babies are available, but I will always let you know how long you may be waiting. This is just the decent thing to do in my humble opinion.
This is in case you really wanted one sooner, and you may want to find another breeder and not need to be notified in 3 months time. I have a list of breeders to help you get your new little spiders on hand in that case.
It does not mean I don't want you to sell you, I'd love to sell to you but I really don't have any babies.
However, I hate to be negative but rudeness about wait times will indeed mean I will not want to sell to you.
I wish I could make spiders on command but alas, that's not how it works 😆

I'm here. I'm alive. AND I'm 100% back to work.
Hopefully, I'll have some updates on summers breeding project for you very soon, because I miss having bibby spoods giving me hassle. So close to finishing this darn colouring book, had to make the lines thicker which was basically like drawing every single page again.
Hope you are all doing okay, surviving the weather.
Thanks for hanging in there while I recovered x
Here's Demi asking where her 2nd breakfast is.

I managed to get 3 Goblins to sit for their photos today. I hope to add more as they finally show their faces.
Shipping will be late next week (i have scans, tests, and pre-op booking up at the beginning of that week.
Please note that once this weekend is done, there will be no more baby spiders going online. It's a tearful thought that I won't be packing off babies to new homes, and seeing the excited messages come in when they arrive at their destination.
I'm going to miss the crud out of my work.
I have to get going cause I'm making myself sad.
Hopefully, I can reawaken Arachnamoria with a 💥BANG💥 once I'm back on my feet.

Now I remember why I didn't give dates for the next upload of babies; because they are unpredictable balls of chaos who like to remind me that they will be ready when they are ready.
2 baby spiders out this morning, 3 still laughing their legs off at me, and one who hasn't even tried moulting yet.
Troublesome Goblins!
For any new comers to the hobby I shall explain. Up to 200 (Thalassia had 70) baby spiders can hatch over two days, they spend 4 weeks in the web where they will have their first moult, and disperse the nest over 4 days (typically)
From here, they will each moult (how they grow) at a VERY individual rate. Some may take 8 weeks to reach 5th instar, some 10, some 13 or 14, others even longer. I can see when they are getting ready to moult, but this too is a case of "how long is a piece is string" some bosh it out in 24hrs, some 3 days, other 5 days to a week, some even bail out at 4 days, act normal for 2 days then saunter off back into their moult hammock.
So I can only apologise to those waiting for the last baby upload before I shut up shop temporarily on the 2nd, but I made an educated guess and the goblins decided to remind me who's really in charge around here.
They are.
Always.
All hail the chaos Goblins, descendents of Neil the great, rulers of Arachnamoria, conquerors of the Spider Wrangler and all her puny plans.

I'll try again tomorrow 😒

Todays planned baby upload had been postponed due to uncooperative Goblins.
The 6 who I'm waiting on are still lounging in their webs.
I will try again tomorrow.

Managed to harass my first wild jumping spider of 2025.
In my defence they were trespassing and I was very sure I hadn't lost any babies around the house.
Only 7 legs but still adorable, and so teeny.
From the lighter bar marking, I'm going to guess a juvenile Pseudeuophrys Laniger

Hey Spider Addicts!
I have been quiet for a while as I have been very unwell, darn tumours creating more havoc than the spiders. There is light on the horizon, though, as I am hoping to have a date for my surgery in the next few weeks. After surgery, the recovery is about 12 weeks, so I'll be closing up the online shop, and messages will most likely be unanswered until I start feeling more human. I will give you all as much notice as possible as to the dates everything will close. I'm hoping to be back on my feet about 6 weeks, but it's hard to judge. I'll keep you up to date.
Please note there is also a small chance that the babies I currently have growing might not be ready before my surgery date comes in. I'll pester them to grow faster. If they don't grow fast enough, I will enlist help to rehome them while I convalesce. Once again, I'll keep you all updated.
Thanks for all your support.
Kind regards
Sian the Spider Wrangler
