Spider Identification? (cute pictures!) and Egg Sac care instructions?

[Fortis]

1) Please help me identify the spider in the pictures. I suspected it was a tan jumping spider (thought it was male, but now there are eggs, so...)
2) Any recommendations or information resources about egg sac care & handling

This is a wild caught spider from the northern virginia area. This is a catch and release situation that became complicated, and I desperately need some help. The plan was to host the little guy until the first day of spring or when the weather stayed above freezing temperatures for a week, whichever came first. I came to this forum and to reddit to read about jumping spider care instructions. I've been caring for this spider for over 4 weeks now and everything has been fine and dandy.


I left home for an hour this morning and came back to what I believe are eggs. This is beyond what I was prepared for, to say the least.

Thank you for any recommendations - and if you don't have any, thanks anyway. I hope you at least enjoy the pictures.


"thank you" <3

Definitely not Platycryptus undatus. I have a few guesses on the species but having trouble pinpointing to a single answer.

To make sure the eggs don't dry out, mist the inside of the enclosure a few times a week.

How to raise jumping spider slings

Im no where near an expert but I thought I would write out what I have done after successfully raising my own sings. I've raised several fully into adulthood and thought I would share what has worked for me; I hope this helps anyone starting out with their slings. 😄 The eggsac: Keep an eye on...

Which few do you think it might be? I'm happy to answer questions if that helps you narrow it down
(thanks for the tip and the link!)

Eris militaris most likely.
