[bug-maniac]

I see a lot of definitions of what exactly constitutes a bug, so I want to know what you guys think makes a bug.

So if you think that earthworms are bugs but spiders aren't, you'd click "An above definition + land worms" and then say "insects only" in the tags.

I wish I had one more option so I could just have a "see results" button but I won't. 😭 Please reblog so the rest of bugblr can see it!

#tumblr polls #bugblr #insectblr #invertblr #is that a thing? #please reblog for containment breach #everything on this list is a bug (to me) #cicada? bug #butterflies? bug #argiope my beloved? bug #millipede? bug #crab? wet bug #giant african land snail? slimy bug #sea slug? wet AND slimy bug #earthworm? wiggly bug #nematodes? wet AND wiggly bug

Snail finger puppet by The Puppet Company, bought from the gift shop at London Zoo in December 2023. I re-stitched its eyes to look a little sillier.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

For the giant African snail, size really does matter! When two snails decide to mate, the larger (typically older) snail takes on the role of female and accepts sperm from the smaller snail. If both snails are the same size, they will both exchange sperm. Each one may immediately go on to fertilize their eggs, or store the sperm for up to two years!

#i think for me todays nice thing was the little girl who very excitedly told me about her pet giant african land snail named baked potato #like so many people today were so needlessly cynical and cruel and bigoted but hey #somewhere out there is a tiny child with so much love in her heart for weird little creatures #thats some hope

May we see Josie?

Also what size tank is she in and do you have any plans for a second tarantula or invertebrate in general? If so what species?:D

Josie is in a 15 gallon! I feel like it’s a really good size to allow her to move around and give her everything she needs while also being easy to clutter in a way that makes her feel safe. Ignore her water dish full of dirt, apparently she did some redecorating yesterday.

I love keeping Josie and would love to keep more inverts in the future. There’s nothing in particular that I’ve researched a ton, but just things that I’ve seen here and there and thought “maybe someday”. No immediate plans for anything though.

I’d love to try out caring for more tarantulas. But I’m also interested in various scorpions, giant African millipedes, and blue feigning death beetles. Other creepy crawlies interest me too, those are just some off the top of my head

EDIT: also jumping spiders!!! I want one so very bad
