Looking for advice on when to remove amblypygi babies from mother?

[kdslehmann]

I have some Phrynus marginemaculatus that have mated and produced some clutches. Two of them have molted off the female already and one still has 1st instars on her back. How long should I leave these guys with their mother? And is it ok to feed to the mother and babies while they're in there together?

Thanks all!

Between two and eight weeks. Most spiders will take fed prey as a threat. But you're spider will probably get dehydrated so a tiny "mist down"of the enclosure might do some good with humidity.

I left mine in with the mother

You can keep together but as soon as they molt off is fine to separate. But certain specie, especially phrynichidae it seems, grow at an accelerated rate together
