I got in trouble when I was young and went away on a state paid holiday for a few years. It was not fun, and I wouldn't recommend it. One day I saw one of these little guys on my desk and caught it we made a terrarium for him and fed him flies. It was not allowed to "keep pets" as it could cause jealousness from the other inmates, but the guards laughed and let it stay. We kept him for most of the summer then let it go. I was surprised at how interesting these little spyders can be. That was thirty years ago, and I recently started watching Lucus the spyder with my little grandson. We caught one and have had him for about 2 weeks now. Thanks for the tips on keeping them. I learned a lot from just the few mins watching. Well done.
"I was saving a bee from drowning and it stung me" is probably the most relatable story for me!! An animal is a living being no matter how small and we must protect them at all costs!!!!
If I ever see a Bee that seems lethargic, and unable to fly, I try to feed it sugary water, and that usually perks them up a bit! (Take 1/4 teaspoon of sugar, add some water, and let the sugar desolve, then try to get the Bee to drink the liquid)
THEYRE SO FUCKIN CUTE I really want one. They seem really adorable, and relatively easy to care for. This would be one of the only pets I can get away with in an apartment as well
Jumping spiders look so polite! Edit: The videos of a Peacock Jumping Spider dancing to YMCA already converted me. And Lucas the Spider made me fall even deeper into the rabbit hole.
I am scared of most spiders, but am considering a Jumping Spider (8 legged puppy) as a pet. I love your little "pumpkin butt"!❤ I currently have a Bold Jumping Spider somewhere in the apartment. She keeps the flies out of the sunroom❤❤
Thank you so much for posting about Betty Sue! My 3.5 year old son loves animals and has recently started watching Lucas the spider on Netflix, which is about a cute jumping spider. I am doing research about getting one for our family and I find these videos super helpful. I have always been there of spiders but Betty Sue is so adorable that I’m changing my tune. Thanks again!
Has she ever just unexpectedly jumped from your hand and ended up on the floor or somewhere hard to find, or will she only jump to something right nearby like how she hopped onto the camera there? I would be a little paranoid about losing track of them while handling but other than that I'm def considering getting one some day! Thanks for the update she is adorable, and that "helmet" was amazing!!
Yes! It’s terrifying haha. It’s only happened once or twice and fortunately I was sat on the floor so she landed just under my leg but for a split second I thought I lost her.
Oh god this definitely happens. My jumper loves coming out to roam since there's a lot to jump on, he especially loves my cactus, but there's been a few times where I genuinely thought I had lost him.
I have 20 tarantulas and my daughter’s jumping spider is the only one that’s ever escaped on me. You just have to keep a cup handy. I don’t handle any of them and all my interactions are done with cups. It’s less stressful for them.
I got my first jumper a few weeks ago! Phidippus regius as well- she's so precious, and I love her so so much. Such special and curious little critters!
Got 2 randomly found around the house. Where I am there's no sites or nobody I found selling such enclosurs. So I bought plastic spice or whatever containers and made holes but it sucks so I might change it. 1 eats perfectly and layed eggs already. The other doesn't eat much so working on that rn
My wife just gave me an early christmas present 2 days before christmas of 2 baby jumping spiders. Unsure of the breed for now, too small for me to be able to see and tell for sure. But im so happy and so excited to have them and watching all these videos from you has helped me out a lot so thank you!
I really like these updates. As I currently have a leopard gecko, fruit beetles, and isopods, I have pushed people to the limits of their tolerance and think a spider would tip them over the edge! As such, treating it like a spectator sport and enjoying your videos is as good as it'll get for me!
Great info! Thank you! I have had my Phoebe for 9 days now. I just love her! I was always terrified of spiders but she is too cute to be afraid of her.
Since I've seen more and more CZcams videos about jumping spiders, I decided that I want one. Even though my wife and me are really arachnophobic. But these little guys are really cute. Even my wife finds them cute, and she is the one of us who is REALLY scared of spiders. I already bought an enclosure, but I hesitated to buy one because I was scared that I couldn't get the temperature right for them. But now that I heard, that they can be kept at room temperature, this is one point less to be concerned about :D I hope I get a cute little fella like Betty-Sue. She is really adorable
I used to hate spiders except for jumping spiders! The only ones I've seen outside of my house are little black ones and I've always thought they were so adorable!! This summer is the 1st one that I haven't seen even one and I miss seeing them!!!
I have been exploring the possibility of getting one. But my major concern is the length of life they have… I’m a bit of a baby and tend to get attached to my pets so a year is a bit intimidating. My other concern is my location because I live in a small town and I do not have access to insects to feed since ones out in the wild could be contaminated. So I think a bit of putting together an insect farm before hand might be my best option since I wouldn’t just get one spider. Anyhow..I definitely live this video because you are a beginner and she is so adorable! Thank you for sharing! Any tips/suggestions welcome and appreciated!
Hi I am in the U.S. In calif. I have raised 1000's of regal jumping spiders, and even was a supplier to some stores for a while. I found that the males were more active, where the females after a while tended to make a really big nest in the upper corner of there house, and then would stay put. Every now and then you would see a flap open, and they would sit with a couple of legs hanging out. I would put a fly in, and it would go in to her nest; she would close the door, and then I would not see her for another couple of weeks. The males did not make very elaborate nests, and would be more active hunters. I wish you well with yours, and a happy life together. wes. 09-03-2022
i havent kept jumping spiders myself yet, but interacted with one at a friends place, and it's amazing just how inquisitive, interactive, observant and lively they are, and just really fun and cute. kinda reminds me of keeping betta or green spotted puffer fish. both definitely watch everything happening in the room. but fish don't tend to behave anywhere near as personable and ... just friendly as spoods. (betta are lazy, showy divas, that prefer to chill on a leaf near the surface untill it's feeding time, and can get REALLY upset if you're wearing something more colorfull than them .. this goes mainly for males, which are inbred to be ridiculously territorial. puffers look adorable, are super inquisitive and active ... and at feeding time, turn into what you'd imagine cartoon piranha to be like. they rip and tear within seconds, and when you're cleaning the tank, your fingers better not smell like clam!)
I've never used a food bowl for jumping spiders, but I mostly feed mine flies, and tiny crickets and tiny grasshoppers and they jus won't stay in a bowl. Plus they get good exercise hunting also teaches them how to b effective hunters. They are a trip tho lol I jus can't get over how intelligent they seem, they are very smart for a invertebrate
Food bowls are mostly for the ones that are less active (and therefore less visible) or ones that have a risk of burrowing into substrate and coming back to hurt your spider when you're not expecting it anyway, so that is perfectly fine.
they seem like such a neat little creature to co-exist with :'))) though I have to wait until I move out because my room-mate has extreme arachnophobia hdfjhkl
When I was little, I was afraid of spiders. Where I live, you don't encounter them, like at all, you would have to go look for them. Later on in my life what happened was, I was idly listening to some video, radio or something where they described how the portia would spend time planning on how to solve a maze to get to its food, before starting the trip, having _memorized_ the route. I was like... It does _WHAT???_ That thing the size of a pea solves a MAZE? In its HEAD? Needless to say, I was awestruck, fascinated. They have like some hundreds of thousands of neurons, all in all, and holy hell they make the best out of them!
so funny years ago I found ur channel when I was looking for tips on jumper care and ended up getting two leos. I ended up getting a Aviculara T as well. Not the typical gangly spider. wild but docile in a way. I wish jumpers lived longer. I would have a phidippus audax wander into my office every year and just roam about for a couple weeks. constantly curious and inquisitive. adorable animals.
Really enjoyed this, I have a little jumping spider but I am too scared to handle her in case she escapes, so it was interesting to see you doing it. Maybe one day I will be brave!
@@leopardgeckotalk Thank you. This kind of contant quite rare. There are a lot of info videos about inverts, but not so many with that creativ geek out factor. Your spiders enclosure inspired me to make a "MooMoo Ranch"(MarioKart) themed enclosure for Dairy Cows. When I'm able to get some :)
I've bought 2 jumping spiders in the last 3 months. Everyone told me I'd be getting tarantulas soon, I said no way. I've already bought one and looking to buy another. Although I'm scared of spiders. Looking forward to a tarantula video from you
I am incredibly scared of spiders but like you said I would be open to trying to take care of one. I definitely prefer reptiles, but she’s so cute and is the only spider that doesn’t scare the crap of me. Would you recommend them to people afraid of spiders maybe as a way to help them get over their fear? I also saved a bee the other day, but he didn’t make it and it broke m heart :(
I've been planning on getting a jumping spider for a couple years now. I find them ALL the time outside, but I will NOT take one from the wild. If I find one inside my house, sure, but not one that's established outside.
Just FYI: Air plants need to be soaked in water for around 1hr, then water shaken off. Your air plant is getting too much "air" 😂 Once I started watering mine once a week they looked so much better. SPIDER IS SO ADORABLE!!!
I've been consuming and watching jumping spider videos for a while and have always been like 'I think I'll just watch from afar' since I'm not a big spider fan. But then I found one hanging out on my TV tonight and was immediately like... I know what that is! lol 👀 Seems like it chose me. So, I guess I'm going to give it a try myself. I think handling it is going to take some practice and I can't see myself becoming a spider person, but I'd like to try the experience!
I'm not scared of the spider, I'm scared of the food you'd have to feed them. THAT'S what creeps me out to no end. So I'll have to pass on the cute spider.
I have my first one coming in a few days just waiting on my enclosure a video of how u feed them would be great I have fruit flies coming,how do you open the container to get some with out a bunch flying out and getting in your house?
I'm an arachnophobe, but the other day in my work I seen a native jumping spider darting around on a shipping container door, I looked at it and it looked at me and then tilted it's head. Since then I've been searching about Jumping Spiders and they're actually adorable, but you did say about the fangs. Do they or can they actually bite a human?
OK I do have a spider phobia but have now got all the set up to house a jumping spider...where did you get her from as I'm looking for a reputable seller. Any tips where I could get one of same colourings.
Hey Rebecca I've had my gecko Arlo for 2 years and I've used eco earth the whole time do you think I should change to earth mix arid and is it better than eco earth as I know you've had experience using both?
Hahah no way my girlfriend got me my first spider the other day for my brithday and I was saying that the meal worm was like a frube haha. Also I have the exact same spray bottle. What genus is your betty sue?
I believe the only chemical it releases is lactide, which is non-toxic, and this is only when it's heated to 200oC. We do not recommend putting any of our PLA items over or under heating equipment, just to avoid any chance of it warping or releasing anything.
If it’s a baby (eating fruit flies stage) though you definitely want a smaller enclosure so they can more easily find the food. Supposedly if it’s too big they might go hungry. As they reach sub-adult age is where you can go big. I’ve seen videos of people using bigger reptile terrariums to create bio-active enclosures. Just depends on what you want/your available space. The big enclosures from Bigfatphids are quite nice, and PadsandPedipalps on Etsy makes quite nice large ones that resemble this one in the video. I’m housing some juveniles there.
I’m not familiar with them because I’m in Canada and not the UK, but from what I’ve heard they’re a chain. Chain petstores in North America (PetSmart, Petco, etc.) should be avoided, so I’m guessing pets are home should be avoided as well. Look for geckos being rehomed or find a reputable breeder.
I know right!! I'm so conflicted because they're so cute and I'd love to observe it but sometimes just looking at them really gives me the heeby jeebies
Aww yeah fortunately I will say that I can open her enclosure and not worry about her jumping out (I thought she would), but they’re surprisingly manageable lol
i would love to own one, but getting tiny ones means they could die and getting a sizeable one means it's either pregnant or not living for much longer.. and for the price its like 😟. wish there was a shop here in the states like the one where you got betty from
During winter my room can get to 18-19c during the night, would this be OK for a jumping spider?? I'd have it on top of my Leo's viv in hopes that would help a little
I don't "own" jumping spiders but I keep a small garden which seems to allow a good population of them to thrive. I don't use insecticides in my garden, if there are pests I prefer to manually remove them.
My first jumper was a wild caught P audax. I now own 2 P regal and love them. I started keeping them to overcome my arachnophobia and it has definitely worked.
Hey, do you have a suggestion for lights? I’ve been searching, asking people. No one has a good answer. I’m looking for full spectrum (mimics the sun), non-fluorescent, non-heating lights for my jumping spiders.
I got in trouble when I was young and went away on a state paid holiday for a few years. It was not fun, and I wouldn't recommend it. One day I saw one of these little guys on my desk and caught it we made a terrarium for him and fed him flies.

Yes, protect animals at all costs until hungry
But want to bee stings The stinger gets stuck Shortly after😮😢

(Take 1/4 teaspoon of sugar, add some water, and let the sugar desolve, then try to get the Bee to drink the liquid)

im connected to my spiders too, they part of my family.....love them.....best pets =)
I really did not expect to feel so connected 🙈
I don’t know if I’d actually have one but she is super cute 💗
Not the spider carrying an old musty mealworm around like a golden retriever with an empty food bowl 😭
I was waiting for this update thanks! 🤩
No problem :) thanks for watching!
what a cool spider
Thanks :)
Yea a jumping spider is the only one i would go with. Theyre on a different level
They’re just too adorable. 🥰

I really think Betty is cute. I've never had a jumping spider,but I do find them delightful.

JUMPING SPIDERS: The _gateway drug_ of _Arachnids._ 😉🤭
definitely tempted to get a jumping spider been thinking of it for a while but not sure if i will just yet.
I love the little happy demon faces of their butts!
Yes 😂😂
AHHHHHHHH IT'S SO CUTE😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
We just bought 2 slings! We love them! We also own 4 ghost mantids and three African clawed frogs. ❤️
I ordered from your store a few days ago and had no idea it was you! I love your videos
That was great, do more, hope to take soon, just out of the hospital so moving a little slow, late morning sometimes. tootles vic
i havent kept jumping spiders myself yet, but interacted with one at a friends place, and it's amazing just how inquisitive, interactive, observant and lively they are, and just really fun and cute.
kinda reminds me of keeping betta or green spotted puffer fish. both definitely watch everything happening in the room. but fish don't tend to behave anywhere near as personable and ... just friendly as spoods.
(betta are lazy, showy divas, that prefer to chill on a leaf near the surface untill it's feeding time, and can get REALLY upset if you're wearing something more colorfull than them .. this goes mainly for males, which are inbred to be ridiculously territorial. puffers look adorable, are super inquisitive and active ... and at feeding time, turn into what you'd imagine cartoon piranha to be like. they rip and tear within seconds, and when you're cleaning the tank, your fingers better not smell like clam!)
I've never used a food bowl for jumping spiders, but I mostly feed mine flies, and tiny crickets and tiny grasshoppers and they jus won't stay in a bowl. Plus they get good exercise hunting also teaches them how to b effective hunters. They are a trip tho lol I jus can't get over how intelligent they seem, they are very smart for a invertebrate
Food bowls are mostly for the ones that are less active (and therefore less visible) or ones that have a risk of burrowing into substrate and coming back to hurt your spider when you're not expecting it anyway, so that is perfectly fine.
they seem like such a neat little creature to co-exist with :'))) though I have to wait until I move out because my room-mate has extreme arachnophobia hdfjhkl

Needless to say, I was awestruck, fascinated.
They have like some hundreds of thousands of neurons, all in all, and holy hell they make the best out of them!
My jumper has molted 3 times and each time he's kicked it out of his nest lol so now I have collected 3 of his caps

Where did you get the enclosure ? Struggle to find something with a døør on the side rather than the top. Love the video
same jumping spiders are the only spider I've ever wanted but heard they don't live too long
why is she so cute 😭
mama spidey's much cooler..❤
I have my first one coming in a few days just waiting on my enclosure a video of how u feed them would be great I have fruit flies coming,how do you open the container to get some with out a bunch flying out and getting in your house?
buy flightless ones
A-dork-able 💗
Is that a heat lamp you have your spider under or just a normal desk lamp , where did you get it ? Xx

@@leopardgeckotalk thanks for the information I'm going to make a change to it as soon as i can!
what type of jumping spider is she again!?

Hi I'm bleach and i lost on Roblox but I am happy
Betty's younger relative, Muffin, says hi🙋🏼♀️🤣
aww that's so sweet!! :)

Wow! How do you do that? I got my jumping spider in May, she molted once and is still tiny 😢
Hahah no way my girlfriend got me my first spider the other day for my brithday and I was saying that the meal worm was like a frube haha. Also I have the exact same spray bottle. What genus is your betty sue?
Do you think its safe to use 3d printed parts for a warmer enclosure? ive heard that PLA can release fumes if it gets hot.
I believe the only chemical it releases is lactide, which is non-toxic, and this is only when it's heated to 200oC. We do not recommend putting any of our PLA items over or under heating equipment, just to avoid any chance of it warping or releasing anything.
How many gallons should I get for a jumping spider? I don’t want the minimum, I want to buy something like yours to make them as happy as possible!
If it’s a baby (eating fruit flies stage) though you definitely want a smaller enclosure so they can more easily find the food. Supposedly if it’s too big they might go hungry. As they reach sub-adult age is where you can go big. I’ve seen videos of people using bigger reptile terrariums to create bio-active enclosures. Just depends on what you want/your available space. The big enclosures from Bigfatphids are quite nice, and PadsandPedipalps on Etsy makes quite nice large ones that resemble this one in the video. I’m housing some juveniles there.
Is pets at home a good shop to buy a leopard gecko from?
I’m not familiar with them because I’m in Canada and not the UK, but from what I’ve heard they’re a chain. Chain petstores in North America (PetSmart, Petco, etc.) should be avoided, so I’m guessing pets are home should be avoided as well. Look for geckos being rehomed or find a reputable breeder.
I think you've just ruined Frubes for me 😂😂
I absolutely love jumping spiders! Their so cute!
but I’m way to scared to own one, the risk of it escaping is too much for me 😭
I know right!! I'm so conflicted because they're so cute and I'd love to observe it but sometimes just looking at them really gives me the heeby jeebies
Escaping is on you and your attention to detail with your enclosure. A lot of the time they hangout and dont mind being recaptured
Aww yeah fortunately I will say that I can open her enclosure and not worry about her jumping out (I thought she would), but they’re surprisingly manageable lol
i would love to own one, but getting tiny ones means they could die and getting a sizeable one means it's either pregnant or not living for much longer.. and for the price its like 😟. wish there was a shop here in the states like the one where you got betty from
Older females should not have any risk of gravidity if you are getting them captive-bred from a reputable breeder who has not mated her.
@@guiltriple not many of those around unfortunately
🕷😍
ive heard about gateway drugs but never about gateway spiders...must try ...i mean the spider
like a frube xL xL xL
1st?
I recommend using a wet Q tip to hydrate betty its much better as the fabric swallows the whole source of water so she can just suck it up
During winter my room can get to 18-19c during the night, would this be OK for a jumping spider??
I'd have it on top of my Leo's viv in hopes that would help a little
I don't "own" jumping spiders but I keep a small garden which seems to allow a good population of them to thrive. I don't use insecticides in my garden, if there are pests I prefer to manually remove them.
My first jumper was a wild caught P audax. I now own 2 P regal and love them. I started keeping them to overcome my arachnophobia and it has definitely worked.
I have 2 Phiddus regius x florida jumping spiders :). I also own one of the blue feeding bowls from you guys and its amazing x
So adorable 🥰
Your voice is so cute
Hey, do you have a suggestion for lights? I’ve been searching, asking people. No one has a good answer.
I’m looking for full spectrum (mimics the sun), non-fluorescent, non-heating lights for my jumping spiders.
when you said royal jumping spider did you mean regal?? or are there royal ones to
