Re: Chilean Jewels
Now I have 35 male Metagyndes innata still available... I will be selling them for $15 a piece. They consume decaying matter (dead crickets, and rotting plants/fruits), need high humidity and low heat (room temperature).

Re: Chilean Jewels
So for food wise already they love grated carrots.
They also grab pinhead crickets. They just walk up on them slowly and snatch them up. They don't mind eating a squished cricket either.

Re: Chilean Jewels
Soooo.... they are spiders, so to speak, by what I read. Right? Arachnids, at least....

Re: Chilean Jewels
No, not spiders. Arachnids are made up of about 10 groups:
Arachnida: Araneae - spiders Scorpiones - scorpions Amblypygi - whip scorpions Solifugae - camel spiders AKA sun scorpions, AKA wind scorpions Acari - mites Opiliones - harvestmen Ricinulei Schizomida Uropygida - vinegaroons, tailless whip scorpions Palpigradi Then there are the almost-arachnids: Pycnogonida - sea spiders Pentastoma/Pentastomida - tongue worms Relationships uncertain, sometimes thought to be highly specialized arachnids. NASTY parasites.
