A few dozen Kukulcania hibernalis spiderlings emerged from the egg sac a few days ago. This is my first experience with spiderlings, so I have a few questions:
Thanks for any advice that you can offer!
- What kind of prey is appropriate for them? (I've been feeding them "wild-caught" roaches and other insects.)
- How often do they need to be fed and watered? (I'm spraying my spiders' webs with distilled water.)
- Right now, the babies are living communally with the mother in a 24-ounce jar. When will they be ready to move out, and how will I know?
- If I decide to release the spiderlings, what is the best way to do that without losing the mother?
