Steatoda Triangulosa Spiderlings Cannibalizing

[ReignofInvertebrates]

I had three sacs pop recently, and until there were around a half dozen from each sac left, I let them cannibalize. I also got a nice video of a victorious spiderling. These are around 1/8".

Nice. I have an 8 month old female that was about that size when I found it. First sling hatched about a month ago. Probably less than 50 left now.

Edit: turns out I still think it's 2016.

That's the same way I raise my latrodectus. After the numbers get down to a more mangeable level I swap them out to individual digs. I let them go till there are much fewer, maybe 20 or so. I have to be frugal with space once I have several females laying all at once

Do you guys breed themto sell? If so is there a market for these true spider species?

It's actually the first spider I've ever raised. I fed mine a few males in hopes they'd mate before she ate them. That ended up being a success. I'm not certain if my sling is full Triangulosa or a Triangulosa/Grossa hybrid. Very common around my house. I'd say most people could just find one themselves. Very hardy spider capable of surviving these freezing temps.
