My son bought a regal jumping spider for me in Jan.. yesterday there were tee tiny baby’s everywhere! I have no idea what I’m doing. Do I keep them together, separate? With the mom or nah? I bought fruit flies from a big box store last night… allll dead ( thanks for nothing P.S.) I also bought springtail culture.. they are almost microscopic.. do the babies eat the tiny white maggotity things crawling around? If yes, how do I get them to the babies… they’re super duper small? I don’t wanna kill ‘em by starvation… please help if you have been in this situation!!???
thanks y’all!!!

Mother not needed. Keep them separate. Feed a fruit fly every day. I buy timberline fruit flies from pet smart. They come in Drosophila hydei or Drosophila melanogaster. melanogaster is smaller

I REALLY reccomend to read the raising spiderlings guide here in this group. it goes over everything you need to know to raise spiderlings
