A jumping spider in a small flat

A pet jumping spider in a small flat—where should a beginner start?

I live in a small Adelaide flat and am interested in keeping a jumping spider. Before buying one, I’d like to understand the care involved rather than assume that a tiny pet needs very little attention.

Which Australian species would experienced keepers suggest researching first, and where can I find a reputable captive-bred supplier?

How do you choose a secure, ventilated enclosure and position it safely during hot weather? I’m also curious about organising live feeder insects when you don’t have much storage space.

What surprised you most when you started keeping jumping spiders?
