This morning when feeding my reptiles I realized there was a big spider running about the cricket tub! It is a light brown colour with a dark diamond shape on its back .Has this happened to any one else ? Is it ok to feed the crickets to my reptiles and just release the spider ?
sorry for the crap pic was the best i could do .

I had the same thing happen years ago. The spider looked a lot like that one actually and it came from an online supplier in the box/container the crickets were shipped in. From the responses I got on here when that happened, kill or release the spider, and the crickets should still be fine feeders.
Hope that helps :D

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
