What does she do if you try and give it alive? How did you know to kill it and that she just wasnt hungry??? Jumpers are hunters ⁹⁹.9% of the time they want to and liove to hunt their prey...really curious...great read so far
And did the breeder you received it from have to kill the prey for her? So interesting!!

Juni seems to only like to eat stuff I kill for her, weirdly! So no risk. Alas, I will try to feed smaller stuff from now on.

The heat lamp doesn't have much in the way of settings and my room can be quite dark and cold, so I mostly got it for the winter! Good point about cooking her, I'll make sure to not point it directly at the enclosure and from a distance.

That said, she seems to love the lamp! She always pops her little head out and basks in it like a lizard. She's a weird spider, lol.
Did the breeder you received her from have to kill her prey for her as well? So interesting!!
