🌿🕷 How to prepare for the arrival of your juvenile Phidippus! 🏡✨

Hello to all future spider parents! 🐣

Are you about to welcome a juvenile Phidippus? Great !

Here is a little “no-brainer” guide to preparing for your arrival. Remember, a happy phidippus is one whose habitat has been prepared with love ❤!



Terrarium: A space of 5x5x5 cm is small, but it is your Phidippus's castle. After all, even little princesses need their own kingdom 🏰!

Lighting: Create a “nightclub” atmosphere 🎉 with soft lighting. No strobe, of course, just enough to make your Phidippus wiggle!

Decorations: Plants, branches, stones... Think Feng Shui for arachnid 🌱. It's a bit like decorating a luxury mini-suite.

Food: Drosophila melanogaster is the caviar 🍽 of Phidippus. Serve them a five-star feast!

Spray to moisten: A little moisture to feel like you're on vacation in the tropics 🌴. No umbrella needed!

Soft bristle brush: For those moments of magic ✨ when you need to delicately move your Phidippus or do housework. Abracadabra!

Heating mat: Keep your Phidippus warm like on a sunny beach 🌞, even if it's freezing outside. ❗always on the side of the terrarium❗
