How To Raise Orb Weaver Spiderlings From Egg Sac to Adult Spider
Вставка

- There are many types of orb-weaver spiders based on their species. But the one in the video is a derby spider that belong to a so called species Neoscona Punctigera, one of the most common species caught for spider derbies in the Philippines.
Thanks for this video, this is very helpful because i wanted my baby orb weaver spiders to grow and then release them so that they can eat cockroaches around the house, because there are alot right now.
Hahaha nice.
Napakalaking tulong netong video very impormative since nagsisimula nako mag alaga na slings para sa december maibigay ko sa mga pamangkin ko sa december mag aalaga din sila 😁
Ang cute naman ang daming maliliit pa...
Hala ang liliit hahaha nakakakilaboy pero ang cute. Parang sesame seeds 😂😂
There are tiny insects to buy at shops here as food . Also in internet . Maybe its usefull
Nice ka lodss keep vloging..
I caught a bunch of orb weavers at work that were clearly getting to the end of the lives at the tail end of summer, and put them in a larger container with steel mesh which used to belong to a tarantula that grew out of it. They mated and one sac was laid but it disappeared and assumed it was eating. The male adults vanished and assumed they were eaten. The last of the females that I didn't release died unfortunately, and I looked in the container 3 weeks later and saw a sac I had no clue was there.. I pulled it out, and opened it a bit, and a couple of them ran out and jumped and disappeared and I felt bad. I have had the sac on my desk for a month and the little boogers are staying in there. When I open it a bit they start to come out and then I fold the sac back over and they decide to go back inside. They have had nothing to eat for 3 months now, but I do mist the sac. Also, if these are anything like jumping spiders, there is the equivalent of "mama's milk" to keep them nourished in the meantime. I was going to let them go outside, but its getting to winter now and I would prefer to put them back in the old tarantula container with steel mesh top, and have some questions.
1. should I put any substrate at the bottom of the container?
2. Will fruit flies suffice? I am guessing the cute little boogers will build webs. We have our own culture and have tiny fruit flies we can use. Any other very tiny insects we can find and use?
3. Instead of releasing them as winter gets close, I would like to raise them in our container as much as possible. Is this doable? I heard that its not easy to keep orb weavers captive and I would like to grown them and then release in Spring if possible. We have raised tons of baby jumpers and trying to breed tarantulas too though I haven't had the best luck with that sadly.
4. Anything else you can recommend? I am going to open the sac tomorrow and let them loose into the mentioned container, and I will leave the original mamas eggsac in there with them as well.
I am guessing there are probably anywhere from 20-40 of them. There were ones that hatched, and white dots which I thought were bad eggs, but a lot of those eggs may have ended up hatching later as well. There are probably 20 white eggs or so left and I assume those aren't good eggs.. When I hold the sac up at the light and stretch is a tad, I can see the little brown abdomens with legs that are fluttering around. I am so surprised they have not all abandoned the sac and left at this point - is this even normal?
I would love to learn how to do this better so each year I can end up with several sacs if possible and end up letting them loose in our garden with our plants on the landing right outside our apartment door, and would love for them to build webs out there to thrive over the spring and summer and catch the tons of bugs flying around here. When it gets to over 100 degrees during the summer, I would be out there once a day misting their webs lightly to make sure they are hydrated properly and hopefully keep them there. They are such peaceful spiders and are VERY gentle as well, and its such a shame that people freak out when they walk into their webs and end up killing the poor things without realizing the extreme importance of these magnificent creatures that are vital for the human food supply, and if it were not for them, our food supply would be FAR less every year and prices would be a lot higher with potential shortages!
Thank you in advance for any guidance you can provide, and sorry for the long message!
You may put some dried leaves and small twigs inside the container. And feed them small insects. If they are too crowded in the container it end up eating each other.
Hi, very nice, simple but comprehensive video. Do you wait until they get comfortable in the new container (deli cups) before feeding?
Thanks. Yes, but just in a few hours.
This video is the best💪🏻 it's so detailed ❤️ thanks for the some idea it's 🥰
Thanks bro.
That's it? I don't have to do anything special for the eggsac except keep them in a container?
How do you feed them? without breaking their infamous webbing just by opening the cups they're just so tiny its impossible to feed them manually
Just drop the small insect into their web.
Hi your vid is very impormative! can i ask how many days should i offer a food to a spiderling after a molt?
Just around 3 days.
Nice, keep vlog
wow nays aydol
So I have Orb Weaving Spiders at my home and wanted to help spur their population in the area. 👉I'm a little concerned how to collect an egg sac without damaging it. They are incredibly sticky.
👉How do you keep them over the winter months
👉I ain't touching them things with my hands 😅
You can use a small stick to get the eggsac and transfer to your spider enclousre. But using a hand is fine. Just be careful not to damage the tiny eggs. And during winter, put some twigs with dried leaves on it inside their enclosure.
Thx for the tip
Add ko lng kuys base dn sa pag aalaga ko lahat yata halos ng nag gagagamba paburito Yung kulay Pula. Try nyo lagyan ng mabubulok na dahon ng santol Yung kulay red na dahon na adopt nila kulay ng dahon after 2 molts makukuha nila kulay ng dahon sobra ganda nila pag red ♥️ skl base dn nag aalaga ako NG sling pero tingin ko mga 1 month old palang na handle ko hirap ako since slings . It helps keep doing videos. Mas okay pag pet since day 1 nasayo na fulfilling ❤️
oo maganda tingnan pag red kulay ng gagamba lalo na kung jumbo size na. at minsan naka panghihinayang i derby lalo n kung napalaki mo sya mula sa egg sac.
I'm in Oregon . We don't have Orb Weavers here. But, on my porch there appear to be these little spiderlings that look like these. But, I'm wondering if actually they are black widows.
we do have orb weavers theres lots around my apartments
@@angelsimental6848 Really??
I live in Portland, and have orb weavers in my garden and trees. Araneus diadematus. They are also in the local woods in late summer.
my spiderlings aren't eating, what should I do? I tried giving them small roaches (brown banded), both baby and young ones, but they don't touch them. they don't eat each other either, so they kind of just starve on their own. is there anything I can do?
you may spray them with water to drink. maybe try some soft skinned insects like mosquitos, flies or other small insects.
Nice content
Wow so cool video !!!! Can you continue making a video after one month breading
Thank you. Yes I will when I get into the hobby again.
What about the mother? How long did she survive in the environment? I only ask cause we have a pet cat faced mama who just laid an egg sac, and I loved the idea of rehousing it with her. But we're very attached to her and want her to live as long as possible. Any suggestions?
They usually lived for a year. The eggs will hatched and survived without a mama spider.
and when do Orb Weavers Molt? I'm Curious I want to take care of Orb Weavers too
my spiderlings molted on the second week.
How often should you feed them after 1 week, 2 weeks 3 weeks to 1 month after hatching from the eggsac?
On the first week I feed them almost everyday. Need to remove the uneaten dead insects after 24 hours and put a fresh one. But when I re housed them individually I feed them twice a week.
@@creeptonictv my❤
That’s nice :)
nice video, sir. linis ng english. may tips kayo sa molting
Thanks. Sakin kc di ko muna binibgyan ng pgkain pag nag molt sila.after 3 days pa.wisikan lng sila ng tubig.
There are better way of feeding them with less hustle... only milk and water using a cotton... it easier and at the same time they get better nutrients from which you choose what ever juice you want to feed them... most of the time i used milk and sometimes they need water
for my spiders i only gave them milk with cotton once in a while. mostly I fed them with grasshoppers and dragonfly i get in our garden.
my weaver wont eat, it been one month, but they still alive, do they still have that egg protein??
Some species of orb weavers with low metabolism rate can survive for 1 to 2 months without food and water. But with food and water they grow faster and stronger.
salamat po
Nice video... I also have a video on taking care spiderlings (Araneus Ventricosus)
Salamat po.Visit ko.
@@creeptonictv salamat po ng marami..
Hi sir, this is 1yr late but, can i just leave the spiderlings a cut up grasshopper leg? I dont have a fly trap or something to catch flies 😅
If also possible can i just let them eat the other spiderlings?
Its cruel but one egg sack contains quite alot for me, i wanna reduce them to more or less than 15, since it takes them 1 month to finally show a "nice" growth when you can actually see there color and species/type, simply killing flies with slippers is gonna take a long time.
Yes they will eat that leg. And they will also eat their siblings and other spiderlings.
@@creeptonictv oh do I also need to leave the mother in/near the spider sac after she lays the egg sac, If so how long do I need to leave her with it?
@@MaxQc-qcnp-317 With or without the mother spider beside the eggsac will hatched in 2 weeks.
I have an adult. How do I keep her as a pet?
The best way is to have a big enclosure with good air ventilation.
ants killed my spiderlings.
my spiderlings aren't moving ever since they hatched
just give them food and spray with water and they are fine.
Do you feed them with freshly dead insects?
Yes
@@creeptonictv How'd you get them?
@@thetree130millionyearsago8 I used a plastic bottle.
Nice
Question: What to feed when they hatch? Because they won't eat the fresh insect. I'm worried bro
Just spray with water.They drink from droplets. A couple of days they will eat insects you put inside.
@@creeptonictv ok bro thanks for replying☺☺
@@cheeseBurbers You're welcome bro.
@@creeptonictv update: the little guys just molted
@@cheeseBurbers Great! They're growing.
Do they molt
Yes.
Hilig mo din pala mga spiders lods
opo mam.
In your video if you notice 2 baby spider is fighting one is dead and she wat
I have orb weaver with egg should i separate it
Yes. You separate the egg or the mother spider after a week.
🥰🥰🥰🥰
fun fact: orb weaver spiders Are Fighting spiders
Correct.
@@creeptonictv Hello can i you please answer this please. What do they eat?
@@TemplicO Hello. For spiderlings you can feed them any small insects like flies, mosquitos, etc.
@@creeptonictv thank you
@@creeptonictv What if you dont have those insects I cant fine any of those in my house
parang sobrang dami nmn ata niyan. Dapat may predator din sa cage para mabawasan.
Hehe.
Di na need kasi sila sila din magkakainan
Langgam po makakaubos sa kanila.hehe.
Plano ko naman sir pakawalan lang yung mga anak nila pag napisa para dumami gagamba dito samin. Ilang araw bago sila pakawalan sa wild after mapisa?
Pwede na rin sya i release kahit bagong hatched.
Question po, pwede po ba Mag alaga ng isang maliit na spiderling? Isalang ka si gusto ko eh.
Pwde naman po. Hehe
Ilang weeks Po ba pwede na i-release sa wild?
Mga 3 weeks po.
I put one in my tree and it hatched ima keep it there
They don't have food tho
Meron ako pang derby kaso pina taba ko dina kumain at yung kulay medyo nag brown imbis na yellow na may pagka white yun bakit kya di kumaon
Pag yung lagayan nila maliit at wla masyado hangin napasok madalas nagmumukha silang luma at nagdadark yung kulay. Hindi na sila ganon ka healthy.
ang hirap din mag breed ng ganito sa sobrang liit nila. kailangan focus ka talaga.
Boss Ilan lng yung makasurvive hanggang sa pag laki?
marami din naman lagpas 10
hindi bayan na aabot langgam
Kailangan may tubig yung paligid ng lagayan ng spiderlings para di langgamin.
