Do you believe the sac in May to be viable?.Any thoughts to how long until you have EWL from the May sac.

Possibly viable, only time will tell to be sure. Time from egg to EWL will usually be about 18-25 days depending on how I care for females with egg sacs.

Grammostola rosea double clutch laid at the same time June 2023.
The first egg sac was large and the second one next to it was normal sized.
They were laid and later hatched at the same time with +326 healthy G.rosea slings all together.

I can’t say it counts as only one sac was good, but this is my female E murinus with her 4th sac (which she ate after a week)
