Is it possible for a jumping spider to lay two fertile egg sacs in a row?

I think so. Maybe she made one but then felt she had more eggs, so she made another sac.

Yeah I kinda saw it coming because she was as fat as she was before the first one even though she didn't really eat that much.

Sounds like you are going to have lots of little ones! My jumpers haven't tried that yet, but it does sound possible.

This female is quite a character.
Yup definitely possible! Did she lay the second one in the same nest? I’ve had a handful of moms do that!
I now only give them enough food to keep them healthy but not fat. Usually a fly a week. Plenty of water though. Then I remove the mom either right before or after babies emerge. Or if she’s leaving the nest a lot. It usually prevents a second sac in the same nest...but not always.
