Breeding

[Jonathan6303]

I’m looking to breed som fishing spiders and regal jumpers(maybe even Solifugae).
Wanted to ask if anybody knew the survival rate of hatchlings(like fishing spiders lay around 1000 eggs do only 700 survive) and how to expand it as much as possible(like pulling the egg sac early so the spiderling don’t cannibalize each other

Solifugae breeding is near impossible.

Solifugae breeding is near impossible.

I know but it looked like that japanese guy kinda figured it out. right temperature, what’s for them to poop and then feed.

Maybe PM him about it.

You're not going to breed solifugids, atleast not on the first or second try (likely).

So far the only people I've heard of breeding them are a handful of Asian people and some entomologists.

As for the fishing spiders, it depends on the species.

I'd say the jumpers would be a good starter species to try breeding, some of the fishing spiders can be pretty fragile when they're L1-L2 and the jumpers have smaller sacs (generally).
