I don't know but the fly was called Marcus. poor boy :I
The night security guard where I used to work was named Marcus. He's a really nice guy who actually lives on sight. During the day he works at the local Walmart as a butcher. Sad to hear that his fly twin died :(
Ah no, don't shed a tear for Marcus. Marcus was a dick.
Once I lived in Melbourne and I left a Huntsman on my ceiling for 3 months. He grew from the size of a quarter to the size of a tennis ball. I named him George.
I still live in Melbourne and I once let a Huntsman grow to the size of a side-plate on the outside of my window. Then I watched my chicken eat him. His name was Jonathon, but I called him Jono.
Edit: The chicken’s name is The Void.
Edit 2: Looking them up, he was probably a girl.
looking up at them today he looks visibly bigger. let's see how big they get!
I have no idea why, but this just made my morning. It's like I found what I was scrolling for, and am now able to get up & go about doing a day.
I'm so glad to read that! Go catch a fly or something! have a great day 🤘
What kind of spider is it?
it has long slim legs and a lot of patience
Don't you dare removing him now!
I think you should name the spider Able, because I named a houseplant Able (it was a dumb Cain) and then it died on me, so I think it's memory would I've on well as a spider
I'm damn glad Able won't have to be watered this time!
