re baby

Hi Hornett,just wondering what you spider lovers feed the babys,theyd be really small right? Would they eat baby crickets or something similar,i always have these dirty great huntsmen in the garage and i noticed a couple of times multitudes of spiderlings near one of the parents.Do people keep those or wolf sp-iders and funnelwebs atrax robustus and stuff,would be like having a death adder. cheers to the spiderlovers

 

[hornet]

i do not keep huntsmans, i do have a few wolf spiders and would love to get my hands on a funnelweb or 2 but not many people keep them for obvious reasons. we feed baby spiders pinhead crickets. Mums a beaut aye.

i have a question. they have eight legs and two fangs, but what are the leg like things between there front legs and fangs? are they like little feely things?

 

[Koula]

Those are the "pedipalps" (or "palps" for short)... basically the spider's "arms". All spiders have palps, just that Ts have big beefy ones. =

 

[Duke_jensen]

how long do they take to get that big?

 

[Koula]

Depends on species, but the usual is 5-6 years...

Looking good John.....I'm sure you wont have a problem selling them.
Yes Zulu; some spider lovers keep alot of different spiders...
It was'nt uncommon for me to have a few hundred adult spiders at anyone time.
Various species of Trap-doors, being my favourites....
Why?; mostly because of the lack of information; especially with alot of the northern species.
Then i got into reptiles.....and that was that; not enough time for everything...lol

 

[hornet]

the palps are used for feeling i think and in mating, i love the trapdoors but i cant seem to find any around.

[Duke_jensen]

how big will these spiderlings be?

 

[Koula]

Tiny... 2nd instars are only about 5mm - 1cm-ish, they're fresh out of the egg-sac. But they grow fast, literally double in size every month until they are a year old, then its every 2-3 months.

 

[Koula]

This is why a can't help but giggle when I watch the Spider-man movies... Male spider's carry their wing-wangs on their "wrists" (on the palps) and carry the "sperm-web" in them. *snicker* :lol:

 

[hornet]

would anyone be interested in a trade??
