      For the razor you should probably try to make a handle for it just so you don't cut your hand by accident cuz you know shit happens. Also, this is just my theory, but I think maybe the reason so many babies died is cuz perhaps just like allot of critters maybe they need there mommy. So maybe the next sac you can get the mommy with them like you did his time. This batch may have a better chance cuz she is with them to watch & care for them.

      Just a thought: I would have tried placing the entire tank in a modified large storage tote. Not the prettiest or best solution for space efficiency or visibility of course, but it could be further modified with slabs of clear acrylic..

    Animals like spiders and cats literally have so many spawn because not all of them will live so don't beat yourself up because nature takes it's course. You're doing your best.

    • @taoutdoors8110
      @taoutdoors8110 3 роки тому +5

      Yep! Just like garter snakes and lots of colubridae classification. They breed for quantity, not quality, which is why some colubridae and quantity focused animals babies fail to thrive or can/have dropped dead literally for no reason (or a hidden reason) out of no where!

    • @taoutdoors8110
      @taoutdoors8110 3 роки тому +5

      Alligators, most fish, and most amphibians are also prime examples of this quantity over quality phenomenon!

    I put my jumpers in a maternity enclosure after mating. This avoids literally all of these issues.

    • @Shante_Llace
      @Shante_Llace 2 роки тому

      This may sound stupid... but what is maternity enclosure for spiders? I feel I understand the idea... but I honestly do not know anything about keeping spiders... I'm very afraid of spiders but have been watching videos to get over it and they've have helped a ton...

    • @christhunborg7583
      @christhunborg7583 2 роки тому +3

      @@Shante_Llace I use a 32oz deli cup and lid upside down. Small pins holes all over. Hot glue sphagnum moss in different spots inside. Use moss and light misting for water. Move mother after mating to this and once the slings emerge you can move her out and leave the Littles in the container.

    Maybe you could rehouse Chai into a new enclosure that could be escape proof for jumping spider babies and it could be a nice upgrade for her, even if she doesn't need it. Just something to consider if you plan on having her lay egg sacs or breed her again. 😁

  • @lorepunkin
    @lorepunkin 3 роки тому +10

    I had audax babies. About 30 left their nest and now I only have one baby left. It’s not easy to breed them, especially when you’re a beginner. Just keep gaining more experience and don’t let this be a setback! Good luck.

  • @majorcuppycake3723

    Kat, Do not beat yourself up about it at all. There is no reason! The fact that so many have survived is seriously so amazing. Keep being the wonderful you.

  • @effy_kujo
    @effy_kujo 3 роки тому +22

    Could you just stick the entire enclosure into a bigger, escape proof bin of sorts? That way they won't get disrupted until feeding/watering and any escapees can be put back into the main enclosure if they're found chilling outside in the bigger bin? (or make the bigger bin that the enclosure is sitting in an extension of it, and they'll just have more room for activities & less likely to cannibalize but, still be together?) Idk, lol, just a thought that sounds less complicated than moving the nest.
    Edit: also, f*ck what other people think. If they just want to be rude instead of helpful then they suck and have nothing to offer.

    • @jaschabull2365
      @jaschabull2365 3 роки тому +2

    I sure admire your dedication - I probably would find it hard to handle caring for one jumping spider with its finnicky size. Trying to keep a whole clutch of minuscule baby ones is a real task. Sending hugs in spirit to you and Chai - I'm sure this has been quite the ordeal for both of you.
