As some of you know we have an A. purpurea sack that we planned on taking away from Mama on Saturday.
Well the babies had other plans. We went into the spider room to just give everyone a check last night, and, of course, to check on our eggsack. We looked and found babies everywhere!
We called an experienced friend, who came over to help (and to keep us calm because quite frankly we were both freaking out) and we took Mama out. She was still on the floor of her tube web, clutching the empty sack. Then we got out babies.
The total on babies is (drum roll please) 61!!!!!!!!!! We found one bad egg in the sack.
We are thrilled to death and super happy!!! This is our first successful sack!!! Congratulations also go to dragontears and funnylori, since the Papa of the sack was jointly owned by them.
Congrats girls!!!!!!!!!!!! We are grandmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pictures will get taken and posted tonight, we were a little to freaked out and busy to do it last night.
