I know, right? I found her perched like this, not drinking. Guess she prefers freshly poured substrate tea

My G.iheringi lets me know this way that his substrate is too dry for his liking. Not sure on requirements for Bumba species, but maybe she wants it more moist?
I always chuckle a bit when reading this genus name. In the Netherlands and Belgium, we have a children's program called Bumba, it's a clown,

They like a little moisture.

You’re right, I’ll be wetting the substrate more often for my girl. It’s been pretty dry here and I think it’s been drying out super fast in her Kritter Keeper enclosure.
Thanks for sharing the Bumba video, that was amazing

This is probably the first time I saw my girl drink. Normally, when her feet touch the water, she's like: "Ewwww! That's wet!"

I know that's been photoshopped because I didn't see it happen!

Saw this little guy with its whole body shoved into the water dish at the reptile expo yesterday.

Hey y’all! I just caught my tiny legchild (Avicularia minatrix) dunkin’ them fangs in the water bowl!

Pretty sure she is drinking/just done getting a drink which is amazing because I’ve never seen my other regalis do it

You sure she's drinking? It looks like she's admiring her mirror image on the water
Narcissus...

P. vittata getting a drink:



I find it interesting that the chelicerae are spread to allow greater access to the mouth for water.

I am convinced she is part cat and enjoys weird positions.
