The Jewelry Rosaries and other things I make.
Hi Everyone. So I because I didn't want to make a painful post about the jewelry I make I thought I'd just post it here. This is a way to relax and keep my hands busy. But I make necklaces, bracelets, elastic beaded bracelets, keyrings, rosaries and chaplets. All of them are made with gemstones and are fully customizable. Please if you are interested feel free to contact me.

Update!
Hey everyone. I have some exciting news. Well really more exciting news. I currently have 6 moms on eggs, three egg sacks and 130 slings. The moms are both new and a few familiar. I have 2 Oranges that were just paired today, Flame and Blaze. They'll be in the Moms gallery. And I have also decided that boys don't get enough love. So the moms gallery will be called The Parents Gallery. And our Dad's will be posted there as well. I'm really excited to have such a mix

New Babies and More Moms
So earlier tonight while feeding and misting and just generally spending some time with my spiders, I discovered that I have three brand new moms sitting on eggs right now.

Fruitflies: The Must Have For Slings
Last week I went to feed the babies (for those of you that don't know I call my slings babies, then I have littles, middles and bigs. Anything under i7, i7-pentultimate (sub-adult), Adult respectively), when I realized my fly cultures had crashed. In a panic I sent my husband to the stores to try to find enough to get us through until I could get some in. They came in yesterday and today I seeded more cultures. I kept one container of flies to feed with until my cultures

Possible New Moms
Breeding jumping spiders So yesterday I did something I'd never done before. I paired several of my spiders. For those of you that don't know the regal jumping spider only has to pair once to be fertile for life. Most of the 60 spiders I have came from two specific breeders. I don't have a lot of adult females. 5-7 at the most. So I paired them. I was terrified. I'd been wanting to pair one of my girls for at least 6 months. The first male I had planned for her was a

Getting to Know Me: A Little More About My Journey with Jumping Spiders
Hi everyone. My name is Andi. I started this business, Andi's Antics, formally a few weeks ago. I am not one of those people who loved spiders all their life. In fact I was quite terrified of them. Then a few years ago, while scrolling through TikTok, I came across a page where the creator was using videos of little jumpers to educate her viewers about these adorable little creatures. I started watching these little things and it was adorable. I had always been one of t
