The stunning Minthara my new baby from Tropical Forest spiders with those fruit punch chelicerae. She's the perfect little model for my macro practice... When she sits still of course 😆

On the subject of photography My Silky Spoodies Best Photo Competition, raising money for Cancer Research UK.

What a beautiful show! A brilliant day organised by Bournemouth Bug Show yet again. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, it was absolutely wonderful to see and talk to so many of you. I was so busy that this was the only picture I got. 🤭🤭 Now excuse me whilst I sleep for 1000 years. Normal service will resume shortly. If you need urgent care advice, I’m here for you, otherwise messages might take me a short while to respond to. 🖤

It’s tomorrow! See you in the morning for a natter and a butterfly cake. 🧁 (disclaimer: that’s a little nightlight and not a plug in air freshener. 😅)

My Limicolaria aethiops babies have grown up so nicely. I will have trios on my table at the Bournemouth Bug Show on Sunday, complete with care guides of course. 🥹 They’ve been an absolute pleasure to raise. 💜

I’d like you to meet Billionaire Nightmare, and As Above So Below. 2 adorable baby Bahamas who were gifted to me by my friends over at Wild T’s. 🥹

Thanks to the very lovely Pods & Spoods, my table at the Bournemouth bug show on Sunday will be full of all these gorgeous 3D printed goodies, and my basic smoothie cup setups will come with cocoon hides again! 🥳 Highly recommend if you’re after some enclosure decor, they’ve been wonderful every step of the way. 🖤

How adorable does lil Eowyn look munching on her fly?! 🥹

She is a chocolate orange Florida girly from the lovely Tropical Forest spiders 🖤
