New spiders! (tentative IDs)
First girl arrived literally on my doorstep. I do believe it was the girl I saw the week before in the upper hallway who appeared out of nowhere to munch on a bug that landed on the carpet. She found herself at my door a few days later, and once spiders get to my doorstep / around my door (the spider 'death zone'), they tend to stay around there until maintenance comes to vacuum them up :(
Trochosa sp.:
Her name is Potema and is a mature female. She put up literally no fuss when acquired, seemed very chill about it. Her favourite hobbies are sitting in her water spot until I give her water, and staring at me.

Second girl was on the door frame the other day and is missing 1 leg. I had a feeling her sitting there and not minding me passing her by would end up dangerous. Sure enough shortly after I acquired her, maintenance came by to vacuum.
Pardosa sp.:
She doesn't have a name yet, and I'm iffy on the ID since she's bigger than Potema, but her legs are thin and spiny and has the classic face. Her colouration is more of a flat dark grey with speckling that's difficult to discern, and no striping pattern on her head or bum. Her favourite hobbies are expressing displeasure at the state of the world, and not hiding ever.
She also made egg today
Fresh shipment of crickets came in, so they all got yummy cricket meals today :)
