I’ve ordered some spiders from a company in Florida, Underground Reptiles, and I eagerly await their arrival today. Little known fact: baby spiders aren’t delivered by a stork, but by FedEx.
I’m planning to do an online unboxing today, but the problem is that I don’t know exactly when they’ll arrive, making it hard to schedule…and at the same time, I want to do it as early as possible to accommodate potential European viewers, and also because I have to fire back any concerns about the shipment within two hours of its arrival. I hope there aren’t any concerns.
So I can’t schedule the event far in advance! I’ve had FedEx arrive anytime between 11am and 6pm, so whenever the package arrives I’ll quickly set up the video and go live. You’ll just have to check in here every few minutes to find out when it happens! Or monitor my live video channel. It’s going to be exciting, if you like spiders!

The red dot makes me think of cylons.

While I don’t know how Underground Reptiles is with inverts, they have a rather bad reputation in the reptile community for selling mis-labeled and ill animals. I don’t have all the photos of mislabeled ones anymore, but I do still have one of their ‘for sale’ photos of an emaciated corn snake. They used to be pretty good… 15 years ago. but their reputation has definitely tanked since.
