A little spider piloting a human in order to make art and play videogames! Website/Shop: artsycraftsyspider.ca Streaming: twitch.tv/ArtsyCraftsySpider Streaming/Videos: youtube.com/@ArtsyCraftsySpider #art
I GOT SOME GOOD PICS OF THEM THOUGH CAUSE THEY DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY HIDE LOOK
Took a bit to set up this room enough to do so but MANEKI NEKO COLLECTION FINALLY HAS A HOME AGAIN
Also don't tell my partner if a game had GameBoy Printer capabilities in the past apparently because he found out a particular screen was printable, waited for it to show up again on stream, screenshotted it from the stream, printed it out, and handed it to me irl the next time it happened on stream
SURPRISE! Giving y'all 10 minutes to join me in my Quest.... for Camelot! The game I never beat as a child was inexplicably one of the games NSO added a while back, so let's see if I was just terrible as a kid or if the game actually is THAT difficult lmao twitch.tv/ArtsyCraftsySpider
Accidentally hit the button while trying to switch back to photo mode but lol, idk maybe this is better quality than the photos ended up being anyway
Sunflower starting their victory walk! (I know it's also not great but you can see them moving which is a treat! Tarantulas love to be stationary or in their holes lol)
Sunflower did SO GOOD getting their cricket! First pic is right after they successfully got it, others are after when they decided to take in on a victory walk with them lol
I'm happy to report that using the red light to check up on Sunflower is working well! They've been out of their hide every night now so they must be feeling ok about their space! I did manage to get a good picture of them yesterday though since they were randomly out before it got too dark!
I need to actually print this out and post it on a wall somewhere because it's basically the thing that has stuck in my head forever
I LOVE SPIDERS SO MUCH YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I WANNA CRY BECAUSE I LOVE SPIDERS SO MUCJ 😭😭😭
Also when I was at the bead store for more spider ornament supplies, I found the cutest little Sunflower charm so of course I had to get it for them! Not sure exactly how I'll put it by their enclosure, might be attached to their curtain stuff later or something but, it for them!
The light disturbed them but Sunflower was out and about again tonight, so I'm going to assume not actually in pre-molt rn, they just did their big burrowing and didn't open it back up until the next day cause it's hard work lol
Sunflower before I put the cricket in, Sunflower after I put the cricket in, Sunflower when the cricket went behind their hide but too far away to properly snatch
Thanks for coming to the stream! Managed to complete this beautiful Japanese Maple lego set from start to finish!
Sunflower made a little opening at the top of The Mound and I can see the stripes of their legs in the dark so they're just chilling but no longer 100% blocked I guess lol
GUESS WHO BLOCKED THE ENTRANCE TO THEIR HIDE WITH DIRT
Room was darkish after dinner so photos might be blurry (I didn't want to light blast them when I was really just peeking in on my way to go lay down again) but hopefully y'all can see Sunflower is out and chilling on the substrate!
Managed to get a better photo before dinner of Sunflower peeking a few legs more out of their little hide there
Hard to see cause they're still far back enough to be in the dark but I can see Sunflower moved up from the depths of their burrow and is just chilling under their hide but juuuuust barely visible
SUNFLOWER IS NOT ON THE WALLS OF HER ENCLOSURE AND HAS BURROWED INTO THEIR HIDE I'M SO GLAD
The lighting wasn't good enough to get a clear picture of Sunflower's underside for an attempt at figuring out a sex (I think they might be too young to show anything clearly anyway) but I DID manage to get a couple photos that showed off their very pretty leg patterns!!
Sunflower decided to give me about a minute of heart attacks because they decided to climb upside down on the top of their new enclosure above the cork bark despite the fact that a leg would slip every 2 steps 😰
1) refuse to move into new home 2) ATTACK Pen BEFORE threat posing and surprise Humans 3) continue to refuse to enter new home 4) oh is Pen? I wanna touch Pen, not scary but instead, friend, I follow Pen 5) wait why am I in new enclosure i'm scar- EXPLORE TIME, HELLO WALLS Certified Silly Behaviour
Ok this enclosure is WAYYYY too big for her but shhhhhhh, Sunflower has a new home
If this enclosure was square I'd be less worried about it being too big but dhdhshshhd, Sunflower deserves a good space for a bit and will eventually need to get a bigger enclosure so like, praying they like the bigger space vs "oh no too big, can't catch food good" fhdhshheheh
On one hand boooo the reptile expo had 3 sellers for jumping spiders but they all felt like they were part of the same mlm and charging $80 for older spooders that would only last a few months, compared to a younger spooder that would last longer On the other hand uhhhh, say hello to Sunflower
The ai software bot account telling on itself in the funniest way lmaooooo
