Otiosus Jumping Spider “Mandarin Mousse”

🍥🕷️ Meet “Mandarin Mousse” – A Whipped Delight from the Canopy! 🍥🕷️

Introducing Mandarin Mousse, a female Phidippus otiosus (Canopy Jumping Spider) with delicate orange hues and a soft-as-air personality. Like her name, she’s light, refreshing, and irresistibly smooth—a true treat for any keeper who appreciates subtle beauty and peaceful energy.

Phidippus otiosus are known for their calm, reserved nature, making them wonderfully different from the bold and high-energy Phidippus regius. Mandarin Mousse embodies the signature otiosus grace—quiet, slow-moving, and deeply observant. She brings a sense of stillness to any space she calls home, perfect for keepers who love calm interactions and mellow vibes.

Due to this spider being Field Collected, we do not know the exact age/molt or whether or not it is gravid. We do our best to only source spiders that appear younger than mature; however, we cannot guarantee this. For that reason, we cannot guarantee any spider is not gravid, unless stated as Captive Bred.
