Recluse Slings are Tiny

I was not prepared for how itty bitty these guys are, for perspective that is a fruit fly behind it.

Nice. Hold Your Breath. Exhaling may cause a Wind Storm. Did Recluse Get the Fly?

How big 1/8”?

 

[TheWidowsPeak]

Full leg span is probably around 1/4 but they are very leggy. So the body itself is probably 1/8th if not a bit smaller. I'll try and get it on a ruler.

Love recluses! Right now I just have one Loxosceles devia, he just had his final molt a couple days ago and got his palps. I think people really overestimate how big they are, this was his final molt (so he's a bit bigger than this but not by that much).

Here's some more pictures just because I think they're really cool.
