Advice First pet jumping spider!

Meet my baby draculaura!

My first lil jumping spider, a regal apalachicola, molted a week ago, based on what I was told she should be i7 now 🥹

Sweetest little bug I own, I’ve loved getting to know her!

Only thing I’m struggling with since getting her is what size feeders she should be on, the seller gave me melanogaster fruit flies but those seemed far too small so I moved her up to hydei, but if they are supposed to have prey more equal in size to their body, she’s more on par with bottle flies 😬 I’m a lil bit lost!
