Crickets have been known to kill spiders so don't keep them together. its best to feed them one to two times a week and take the uneaten pray out 24hrs later. Jumpers have a big appetite and will normally go after pray as soon as they see it. other then that the build looks so awesome keep up the grate work.
Thank you for letting him know, I got momentarily scared for the spider. I also recommend springtails to help keep the enclosure clean in addition to the isopods. They also like a variety of food. Sometimes my jumpers will start to refuse crickets if they have had too many (even if I gut load them differently). They also like wax worms, mealworms (for adult spiders), but I find they particularly like bluebottle flies.
Awesome! I love home schooling! I'm hoping me and my wife can do the same. There are a lot of propagation and seed starting activities you can do with your child too! Good luck and have fun!
Your jumper may be hanging out more on top of the terrarium on the lid because hes afraid of the larger insects (crickets, isopods). All jumping spiders seem to be different as far as prey goes. Some will go after and eat larger insects and others wont. If they are scared of them they will avoid them at all costs and will stay at the top of the enclosure. Once you remove the larger insects you will observe them spending more time on the bottom or in other areas. I discovered this with two different male phidippus audax that I had. I do love the look of the moss in the enclosure. And it gives them something textured to grip onto, especially when they get older and the little hairs on the bottom of their feet start to flatten out.
Wow, the landscaping and color scheme of the terrarium is beautiful and dynamic! So cute! Can't wait to see short films of your pets' activities. I think it would be fun to watch!
@@TechplantChannel Awesome. Thank you! I just caught my first jumping spider in my yard and built him a makeshift enclosure. I'm trying to learn as much as I can. It's been fun watching him stalk his prey when feeding him. It may be frowned upon but I've been feeding him flies I catch and worms from the yard. (although I'm sure that's what he was eating in the "wild")
@robbye01 yeah some ppl do not like that but I fed them wild bugs as well since I caught mine in the wild. I'm guessing it's a bigger problem for a captive spider to eat wild bugs from a place it's not from where their are pathogens it's not used to if that makes sense.
I am a nesticode araneae lover and I have been keeping the nesticode since 2 years And also I am a araneae researcher and I have researched so many things about all the spiders founds in southern asia and also in Nepal. Thank you for giving me an easy and beautiful tricks and techniques for making an beautiful and cute encloser for my little jumping spider. So for this idea I really thanked you my bro
So not sure anyone said this but a few things. Jumpers are arboreal spooders. They like to hang out up top. So you want your cage to open from the bottom or the side because they like to build their nest up high. 2. Be careful getting wood or moss from outside (order it online) these can carry bugs (mites) or other things that you dont know if itll hurt your spooder. 3. Be careful with leaving crickets in. They can bite and can kill or hurt your jumper. 4. You need vents. You want at LEAST one vent on a tank/terrarium etc. They need air flow. Hope that helps for future tank building.
Jumpers are arboreal spending the majority of their time climbing. Sure your cage looks awesome, but it will spend most of it's time on top. They will build a silk hammock, or pouch to live in towards the top of the cage. Most of the time right where the lid and side meet. Causing you to disturb it Everytime you open the lid. So a front opening door can be better with some spiders. Also like already said. You don't want to leave food in it's enclosure. Crickets are known to munch on the spiders.
Thanks for the tips! luckily he made the hammoc under the log since it was pressed up against the screen. Thanks for taking the time to let me know though I will take your advice for my next spider build!!!
You shouldn’t have the top as the lid because that’s how they make their webs on the top so make the front or make a longer top so they have space and you don’t break their web
Just got into jumping spiders. I have no problem with them on the top, I have small wood pieces with large holes that they love! Seen so many ppl say they make webs on top, not mine
He probably likes the roof of the terrarium because jumping spiders like to build their webs/nests in the top of their home, which is why it's preferred for them to have homes with a kind of front-door feature. The best thing I can find explaining it is the jumping spider video by the channel Snake Discovery. They say it's best for the door/ halfway / 3 quarter opening terrariums so when you open the terrarium you don't destroy their nest.
Wow its beautiful but you could've used screen mess instead of leaves to seperate the false bottom because as the leaves break down the gravel mixes in with the substrate and that kinda defeats the point
Hows he doing? I think I heard too much moisture can kill spidie. Once a days seems excessive. Just a though. I found one two weeks ago. He’s in a fruit fly, plastic jar with the mesh lid. He has a piece of bark standing up,with inch peat bottom. Makes his home on the back of the bark at top. They love to sun bath. Stays on warm kitchen window sill and gets sun. About ur size too. Good luck.
Hes alive and well, hard thing for me is knowing if hes eating well tho. the bugs go missing but i dont know if they just burrow somewhere and die! his terrarium actually gets pretty dry. some of the moss is straight up drying out so he should be ok. Thanks for commenting, I hope yours continues to do well too!
It looks awesome! I hope your lil guy is doing well. I just wanted to say: be careful with introducing foraged plant matter and insects because they could have been exposed to pesticides, which causes neurological problems in spiders.
Your Terrarium looks Awesome and your starter one was also good. That little guy is adorable and I am not a spider fan. I am glad he has a cool home! Let's name him!
Hi! I've seen a lot of videos about people training them to crawl on their hands and hang out with them. So my question is: do they suddenly start running or jump down from your hand? I’m afraid I would lose it in the house, but they never talk about it in the videos 🤔
generally they wont jump off without kind of seeing that they will be successful. So its unlikely that they will jump off if there's nothing around for them to jump to. If they do, they always shave a safety thread of web to hang on if they fall so it's likely that they will just hang from their thread, giving you a chance to get them. But as with all bugs, just be careful when handling.
I randomly found your channel and I really enjoy the footage I think this is a great build, I'm pleased with the result! Thanks for the great video! keep up the work (I subbed)
Christopher Chiles I bought these strips of 1/4th inch wood and sandwiched a screen between them with clamps and super glue. Should I make a video about it?
It’s usually best to not feed them bugs around your home because you don’t know what disease/germs they’ve been exposed to, just as you wouldn’t put any substrate from your yard in there because it could have pesticides or mites. Hope that’s helpful, it’s just best to have sterile things to have the best environment for your little spider:)
@@belove751 also decoration and insects very cheap, why hunt and risk spider life if you can buy it (in Russia 20 cricket cost 1$ and this enough for 2 mouth for 1 spider). If you can't afford 10-20$ for you spider, don't pet it.
@@TechplantChannel I was thinking of adding the isopods from my garden because of this. Just a quick fix. I’ve taken the molded trees out and cleaned the terrarium but - I think the isopods will help
If ur gonna get sticks and branches from outside and not a pet store, bake the sticks or boil them to kill all of the mites, pesticides and bacteria. The Mites could kill ur jumping spider. Same deal for pesticides. Be careful! :)
Sometimes foraged material ends up having some fungus, beetles, worms, etc that can potentially be harmful. Some people bake foraged wood to kill anything that may be harmful.
yeah lately my videos are getting 0 traction lol. maybe they labeled me as Alt-right or something. Ill try and do some more outdoor videos but its getting cold out again!

id make an enclosure where you dont remove the lid like mine. they will most likely make a nest at the top and oyu will disturb it. Also dont forget to mist the side every day so he has some water droplets to drink

Cute spider and great job. :D
Thank you! 😊
In the uk those other bugs u showed we call them woodlice
same here, or rolly polly
What insect you feed your spider
very very small crickets or wingless fruit flys
But i don't have crickets and fruit flys
do you have a tutorial for those aquarium lids?
i can make one, its actually really easy!
@@TechplantChannel Did you make one? :D
if you want spiders that like the ground get some wolf spiders or grass spiders.
Thanks for the recommendation
Can i use orb weavers? I have one here.
you can always try, might be hard tho because the web will most likely be on the lid as well
Great job & great vid ! Thumbs up ! Ty4Sharing

How did you make the top for the enclosure?

Question, can we use like potting mix soil or will the fertilizers in it mess w the spider ?

If I get a pet jumping spider again I'll feed it the flies and tiny cockroaches I find around my home.

Are the jumping spider trying to scape from the terrarrium?
The may not be compatible with Crikets
no he seemed to like it
hello, one question, if I take branches or leaves from the forest, will I bring with me bacteria that harm my spider?

Thanks!
I love spiders I actually keep different species
awesome! I like them too!
What's the importance of the isopods?
They look cool, plus they are good at keeping the soil healthy
dont give any limelight to people unsubbing. Don't even pay attention to it. 3-5 people joining or leaving is normal.

super late comment but do you know the Dimensions for the build looks really cool.
update on how this enclosure held up?
Really neat
Thanks!
Do you do anyhing with the pods and moss to clean it before u put it in with tarantulas?
no because he was also from the wild, but if you get captive bread you shouldnt mix wild n whatnot due to parasites

How many plants are you growing? is there money in small scale CBD
aren't crickets too loud to keep?

I cant keep moss alive. Is there a trick to it?
wet and humid
@@TechplantChannel is it possible to keep it overly wet and humid?
What do you do when you get fungus gnats? Do you replace all the soil and take out the excess water at the bottom or just replace the top ?
Maybe u could add vines up top

not a bad Idea, I want to redo this cage so maybe i will
You definitely over did you jumping spiders cage but he loves it
He likes to make a nest under the top of the log
What is the size of the tank btw good vid
im not sure about the gallons but its about 12 x 12 x 12
Wait dont jumping spiders eat isopods? My zebra does is he just weird
maybe the small babies but mine didnt seam to care
Do you have jumping spiders for sale?

Some people use the tall deli cups for them. even a large food storage container would work, they arent that picky I just went all out for fun
Ahh I’d be careful getting wood and such for your terrariums... mites can kill the spider! It looks absolutely amazing though
thats what ive heard, I might bake my stuff in the future
@@TechplantChannel that’s a good way to go!
Just a bit of info I got from reading up on them it’s not good for your jumping spider to moist it’s cage to often. They say like once every two or three days.
Is he still alive? And can you give me a link to where I could buy this terrarium?
he died sadly, I got this at hobby lobby. its a football helmet display case lol
instead of log i recommend empty cork tree, my jumping spider make a home inside of it (at the top).
oh nice!

Hey ! I really love your terrarium :)
I was wondering, do you have to keep a certain temperature and light for the spider ?
mine gets like 15 hours of light and it sits at about 75 degrees
Techplant do you mean faronhite?if not whAt heater should I use in England 🏴
Add the millipedes, trust me it's worth it, and spiders also be away from them.... Worth giving an IDEA
I will!! Right now its winter and I couldnt find any in the wild. When it warms up I will catch more!
Please be careful when you mist. Jumpers can drown easily.
will do thank you
What people hate it i have a spiders i like it
me too
I made a terrarium yesterday and it happened to have a spider in it
Just make sure there is no ants in soil
It's called arboreal dude. When the spider lives off the ground.
I see thanks!
Its so ironic how he looks like Peter Parker
lmao
Leaf litter
I added some later it does wonders!
Old fish tanks work
I have one im planning on converting!
KEEP THE SPIDER
I did, hes so cool!
Do you have a name for your jumping spider yet?
No we should name him. I think i can post a poll on youtube and the subscribers can respond. I will try it.
Here in PH there are billions of them
im jealous
