Description
This species of jumping spider is found under the bark of eucalyptus trees in southern Australia. They grow to 13mm in body length and build silken retreats underneath bark. They are very active and inquisitive, and hardy in captivity. Despite their intimidating size, these are a timid species and can be handled safely if respect is given, like handling all spiders. Females and males are basically identical with males being slightly shaggier and more grey in colouration.
Care Tips:
This jumper should be fed baby/x-small crickets – no bigger than the spider’s body size.
Enclosure should have bark hide available as this is their favourite hang-out place. We recommend The Bug box or Little Bug Box
Sold as unsexed juveniles.

Customer service has been amazing and very quick with response to any questions. My little guy came healthy and active, and after settling into his new enclosure is social and very curious. I had to hype myself up a little to hold him the first few times but now I’m confident and having him out for daily exercise is very fun. He’s building a hammock and eating crickets with no problems.

Thank you Bug Frenzy. My little baby jumper arrived yesterday, safe and sound. I also ordered the bug box and substrate and Pumpkin (he arrived on Halloween!) settled in just fine. I have included some photos (a little blurry as he moves SO fast!). I am thrilled with my purchase and with your service!

Well-packaged and arrived really quickly as it was posted Monday and arrived the following Wednesday morning. Spider was in good health and active and has since also eaten a fly and a cricket and made a hammock, which are good signs of happily settling in. Thank you Bug Frenzy
