Comments & ID Thoughts

I found her in my room when I was cleaning and since then I've been keeping her with me in a container that mimics a natural environment. She's a Brown Recluse and I've had her with me for 2 1/2 weeks. Im only wondering if there is anyone else has any information about her kind like the NEED TO KNOW info and if anyone wants to know anything about her I may be able to answer your questions.

Do you have a clearer, more dorsal image? This does not look like a Recluse (Loxosceles), I can make out a pale median stripe on the carapace that is inconsistent with that genus. Possibly a Barn Funnel Weaver, Tegenaria domestica.

“Need to know’s” of this spider is that they are very dangerous, thus make sure to keep to container secure. I would like to know what you feed it. Thanks!

She needs a moisture source in addition to the larvae’s fluids. A small clamshell that you can drip water into might work. My house spiders drink splashed and spritzed water off of surfaces.
