I'm not a HUGE fan of spiders, but I feel I could make an exception for these spiders lol

[@whisperingwooper1763]

Me too! Might be the only spiders I would ever get but I’m not super keen at feeding flies I would be afraid whey would go everywhere would have the get the non flying ones for sure

You are not only a gecko channel now, the eight legs are taking over😂loving the spider content tho

[@leopardgeckotalk]

😂😂 it’s okay there will be gecko content but I just want to diversify a little. I’ve been making gecko content for almost 10 year now 🙊 that’s a lot of gecko content.

[@gingerlygingerlee3023]

Betty and Bertie! I love it. They are so cool. I loved the way he cleaned his face. At first it looked like he had a handkerchief. I cannot believe how big Betty looks. Thank you for the video! 😀

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Ikr I love when they clean their eyes 🥹. Yeah it’s crazy how quickly she’s grown from a tiny speck of a spider to a little chonk monster.

[@codaboi138]

I'm a fully grown man and I almost cried when I saw Bert's face. I've never done that in relation to a cute animal before, he's so great.

[@ingesexton811]

Hey! I glue a lot as well and the glue on my fingers makes me absolutely nuts! If you take an nail file you can file it right off. I use a medium to light grit and file it right down, it doesn’t bother my skin at all.

[@videosbythemadanimalhouse]

Love him😍 I'm now up to 3 spoods😳 I want more...😅 I've been trying to make my own little enclosure at the moment😊 it's half done, just have to finish it😊

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Aww nice! It is fun putting together their enclosures :)

[@TheBlondebaby80]

I had the same surprise with spoodernest thinking the spider would be in the paper and then out comes the little cup and lid haha, the tension!

[@znail4675]

I saw it as a tip if you want to breed them that it's good to put their enclosures next to each other so that they can get used to each other before you let them meet.

[@joannenolan319]

Ive just ordered my 1st spider an your videos have answered alot of the questions I had, thankyou so much. I hope you put more videos up because I want to learn everything about the cuties possible. Ive got a feeling I'm gonna end up having more than just the 1 🕷❤🕷, I honestly cannot wait for my little boy to arrive

Hello Rebecca 💖🤗, its been a long while but I'm still watching and checking in. I'm subscribed to so many creators there's no way to keep up like I did years ago. The spiders are so stinking adorable 😍. How many more do you think you will add to your family or little ones?😉 You probably don't even remember me but I had a Veiled Chameleon, Kenny. He moved to Heaven this spring. He was a true grumpy at times buddy. He lived to be 6 yrs old. Reptile friends were amazed he lived that long. Miss the little guy🥺. You have a fantastic weekend. Will be hanging around.😉💐🤗🥰. May Jesus bless you and yours, Lin ✝️🐕🐕🐕🐦🐢🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎💖🦒🐧🐲

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Aww thank you Lin, yes I do remember, sorry to hear about Kenny 🥺 but yes 6 is a great age! Haha I’m going to stick with 2 spiders for the moment but it’s certainly a slippery slope 😅

[@dianazaalberg1993]

As far as I know room temperature is enough, just an led light would be great because the spiders like it bright

[@Lawton-Talks]

I love the jumpies! I see lots of males here in Florida. The green fangs and black and white I fancy a lot.

[@JolynJessica]

In the video caption, am I seeing things, or is that actually a heart on the spiders behind????

[@Elgicnola]

He is adorable, I've been looking for a light for mine for ages! Where did you get yours? X

[@clairedelune377]

Ok, Bertie is way too cute of a name. Congrats on your new little guy!

[@justachonkyspider]

I love these tiny spodes so much.... But I need advice. Every time I've tried to keep one they always escape and hop away and that makes me sad 🥺 ..... how do you stop tiny spider from escaping????

[@aspxctspots]

Just for my first leopard gecko, it’s still quite small but not too bad just wanna make sure I’m doing everything good I’ve done so much research but still feel like I need it perfect perfect, I have 3 hides, one moist, other on top of heat mat and one in middle , I have water dish, calcium/food small dish thing I have a heat lamp, and that’s kinda it (paper towel for substrate, I’ll upgrade to 20g long eventually when it’s larger and some Coconut fiber substrate is everything I have good?

[@crystal8280]

Your in the UK- do you have to use a heat mat to keep them warm? Or do you find they’re okay- I’m really thinking of getting one to keep in my living room lol

[@laurawilson5666]

Omg ☺️☺️ that would be quite a complex build but we’ll think about it lol

[@tanyasimpson6144]

I am scared of spiders but I do love their CUTE faces. I'm considering it. Also lately I've become really sensitive to any creature bug small creepy whatever, I will find a way to save them instead. Sorry but before I had no idea even bugs can be so cute. Like a Japanese beetle, their faces are just so sweet. I cry if I can't save a lil bug. I've been very careful at work cause we do have "daddy long legs" and I have even held them to get them to safety. Took an emergency to do it but I've been fine with it since.

[@susanwaltman2607]

Who do you buy your spiders from?

[@Allan_aka_RocKITEman]

FWIW: As long as it does not bite or sting -- or at least is not likely to do so -- I have no problem with insects. I had a pet boa constrictor for a couple of years in the late 80s/early 90s.

[@christophersbass]

When they get bigger, which live plants do you recommend for their enclosure?

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Hmm I’ve never really explored that too much, just because I’m a tad worried of increasing the humidity too much, but I think that’s why I like air plants because you can take them out and water them separately. I know Serpa Designs did a planted tank for his spood.

[@jillzord]

So cuuuute! I heard jumping spiders like to bask in the sun in warm walls, do you ever notice a need for them for a little sun and warmth? Or is that just south American spiders? Curious

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Not particularly but the reptile room is generally quite nice and warm, so I think heat wise they’re happy, but I did notice a big change when I added the LED. I only had Betty a few days without it, but she wasn’t as active or as hungry without it.

I was wondering if these spiders bite? I want one but if they can hurt me I’m good 😅

[@meowthekitty321]

They could bite, but with how tiny jumping spiders’ fangs are, it probably wouldn’t even break the skin.

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Yeah I’ve never felt them if they’ve tried. I read that they’re too weak to break the skin.

[@leopardgeckotalk]

Yeah I might have to put something between the tank 🙈 not sure if I’ll breed just because they produce soooo many babies 🙈 and they’re tiny haha but maybe I’ll look into it.

[@Agg1E91]

The sudden jump just freaks me out too much. Otherwise I think they are great. But the sudden jump? Show-stopper I'm afraid. I am thinking of getting a black tree skink. That's about as active as I want my pets to be!

☺️ yeah ngl I had Bertie out last night and he suddenly jumped onto a black surface and for a split second I thought I’d lost him 🙈 it’s a tad easier when they’re bigger and you can keep track of them better haha
