Here's some pictures of my T's from today, my true and jumper,and my scorp.

Starting with my jumper, here's my little one. She's a salticus scenicus (zebra jumping spider). I feel like she's in the process of building an egg sac in her container, but I don't want to disturb her too much to make sure. She's adorable.

And my beautiful true. I was told he was a mature male black footed wolf spider. I found him in my basement sink, when I brought him upstairs my dad pointed out that was the spider he was trying to drown earlier that day.

Here's Reggie, my asian forest scorpion. I was re-doing his enclosure and got some pictures while he was in the kritter keeper.

And T pictures...

And my favorite of all my T's, my G.Rosea, Ross. Who was originally Rosie, but I'm not positive if he's a female or male yet. Waiting for him to molt.

do you catch your collection when you can? jumping spiders have been some of my FAVORITE spiders ever since I was a kid. we have a few types that Ive seen where i live in new mexico. Im sure theres more but i just havent seen them. I love watching them in nature.

I usually will find smaller spiders in my house or around my house outdoors and take them. I had three jumping spiders (all the same species as the one I have), I ended up letting one of the adults back outside, and one of them (a sling) escaped somewhere in the house. This summer I'll be going out to a ditch near one of my friends house and seeing what spider I can find there.

I either cut up a mealworm into smaller pieces, and for those who refuse to eat mealies, I'll cut up a cricket or take off one of their legs. There's also feeding them flyless fruitflies but I've been having a hard time finding those.
