I keep mine in plastic peanut butter jars with a little cypress mulch and one or two upright sticks The down side is the tend to web up the whole inside.So I transfer them to new jars once a month so things don't get to dirty feed them crickets,moths flies etc and mist once a week

Hey thanks,
I got her home and she is just awesome! It looks like she has already produced an egg sac that has already hatched. So I'm guessing she can produce many more without a male present?
I also picked up a cool fisher spider I'm going to set up in a semi aquatic enclosure and put some little rosie feeder fish in. Should be very interesting!
