oh boy.... I raised 4 eggsacks in 2019. It started my whole business. we seperated every single sling and raised it individually in deli cups. over 200 slings ! It was quite the undertaking but it was well worth it.

Curious what size were the deli cups?? I have kept these spiders my entire life and have NEVER had to deal with an egg sac. But I have a bunch of small 2 oz condiment cups. But am afraid it’ll be too small!

Breeder tip: Once you see slings it is time to move the egg sac to a container that is easy to manage before the slings emerge.

I was sitting at the dinner table and all of a sudden I saw a crumb moving. Turned out to be a sling so I called out my daughter who has wanted a jumper for over a month now. We found a small container for it and then immediately I couldn’t figure out how to take care of it so I found this video and it definitely gave me a great direction to keep this guy healthy and happy. Those lil guy’s are amazing hunters from the get go.

Went through this over the summer with some P.audax. Good lord they go through a lot of fruit flies. I used a large AMAC, drilled a 7/8ths hole through the top, cut off the top of a plastic soda bottle, and used epoxy to affix it over the hole. Whenever you want access without opening the box, you just unscrew the bottlecap. I use the same setup with most of my arborial T slings too. It's works great for C.versicolor, and avics.

Jumpers will happily hunt prey larger than themselves. Though as someone said, you don't want an even fight when it's your pet involved, so no feeders bigger than they are or anything tough like a beetle.

I do not suggest misting/spraying for slings. Get a cotton ball and wet it until moist but not dripping. They will drink from it and it can't cause drowning. The smallest droplet will drown a sling. When misting the water will collect together and cause a snowball effect and create even bigger droplets on the sides of the container

That's why jumping spiders are meant to be kept in an enclosure that opens from the bottom or the middle of the front.. bc they go to the top, and also make their nests at the top, so every time you open it you're ruining their nest. Those enclosures are also too small for adult P. Regius so hopefully the others he mentioned are in better homes!

Also, since they prefer the top of enclosures, it's better to use it upside down, and omit substrate. The light excelsior can be added generously, so it stays stable inside the inverted container.

A small piece of foam sponge would suffice to block the hole. Yes, a funnel works well, for feeding fruit flies. I've raised several batches of Phids, and have learned little hacks each time. They are so fun to raise, and watch!

Love the video! I ended up putting the egg sack into a container (like the one the fruit flies are in) added cross ventilation (only the lid was ventilated) and cut a square shape door on the side for easy access for feeding and adding moist paper towel. I read it's best to leave them together until i3 to i4, so once they get to about that stage I'll then separate. Currently have baby bolds and baby Regals. ❤

Excellent techniques for dealing with spiderlings. I had an egg sac of Silver Garden Spiders hatch a few weeks ago. A couple hundred babies! Have fed dead prey and fruit flies. The Arctic blast has made south Texas too cold to release and disperse them. Hoping for warmer, normal weather so they can go and grow as intended. Thanks for the advice in your video!

Actually what you should have done was set up the enclosure upside down, with the lid on the bottom. In the future, hopefully you will do that. Instead of a cloth to you just poke very tiny holes. Then when you go to open it, they will all be at the top (the bottom) and it will be a lot easier for you. I have two females with egg sacs. Oh boy, going to be a lot of work!
