Woah I hate and love those pictures at the same time! I will definitely reach out if needed, thank you so much! Name for the spooder?
the one i was handling is the same as the one in the bottom picture is named J3z after an aussie youtuber because its australian, the heteropoda venatoria was unamed she was a mature female i bought wc and i was aware of how short their lives are at that stage in their life and didnt wanna get too attached
I understand the irational part of most peoples fear of spiders but huntsman in particular are so gentle to humans sure one that large actually would be scary but i have never ever been bitten and have been keeping dozens for 2 years now
eh its fine i expect em to be villianized its a bit of a shame but its expected. oh also the only real like innacuracy in behavior for em also is focusing on sound huntsman have speced primarily in eyesight and speed sure some vibration will trigger them but it is mostly eyesight they have very well developed eyes however that comes with downsides they tend to freeze at least briefly in intense light as they are nocturnal
