Penelope decided to wander around the enclosure and get used to her new legs. She is a gorgeous Royal Jumping Spider who is getting ready for mating season. I can't wait to see what all the babies are going to look like. Enclosures are ready and waiting. Babies next!
Getting ready to molt after one last feeding. Penelope here is very friendly but has recently grown short. A sign that she needs her alone time. I was right and she molted last night. Pictures to come!

I saw the follow and, given the profile name, thought you may be a fellow photographer of the wilds. Come to find out you've already unleashed a beast at the gym!! Get at it!!
