{tw, bugs + potentially spiders}





title says it all, discuss your favorite species of insect or arachnid!
rules:
- be kind to others and respect the creatures, don't say you want to stomp on anything :(
- do not spam! you can have multiple insects in one post but try not to post more than twice per page ;w;

thats pretty much it, just follow all the cs rules and you'll be fine! :>

luna moth (actias luna) is probably my favorite thing ever

Ahhh hello hello! Bugs are my jam!

My favourite insect is proobably the humble bess beetle. They mother their young and it's always just really... spoken to me. My favourite arachnid is probably the balfouri / Socotra island blue baboon. They look like little siamese cats and it melts my heart.

My husband keeps a lot of inverts, right now we have a pumpkin patch tarantula named Boogey, a nursery web spider named Peachfuzz, and a scorpion named Leviathan! (: Saturday he's going to go out hunting for a Hogna to keep, excited about that!
We also had a camel spider named Krueger, but he's sadly left us earlier this month. Most inverts just live such short lives. ):

Do you have a fav arachnid? I love luna moths! I had some framed Atlases a while back and they were always such an easy way to make kids excited about bugs.
