2021年5月22日 · Sorry if this response is coming late, but I am also a new jumping spider owner, and I also got so worried the first time my jumper molted. Jumper’s post was very informative. I think just be patient. They can retreat into a pre-molt web for a …

2020年6月10日 · Jumping spiders don't really hang to molt, they molt more like arboreal tarantulas, inside it's own webing in a very enclosed space. Best to not bother it too much, one time i have taken a female Phidippus adumbratus out its web trying to pair her with a male thinking she is mature, she wasn't receptive so I put her back.

2017年6月5日 · I have been taking care of regal jumping spiders for several years now and I'm noticing that a few of them never molt. They end up getting stuck in their little spider bodies and cease to make web, nor do they stick to things, and as time progresses pieces of their shell will break or come off in little spots.

2023年1月7日 · It's not unusual for spiders to rest on their backs after the effort of molting! In my experience, if the spider has managed to complete the molt, it's out of the "danger zone" and should be perfectly fine. Most mismolts involve the spider being unable to molt completely and dying as a result of being stuck.

2013年7月22日 · Well this jumping spider I caught and assumed was a juvenile P. johnsoni has started constructing this. At first I thought it was perhaps a molting tent, but it's kinda gotten thicker than other molting tents I've seen. Is it maybe an adult female P. clarus instead, and constructing an eggsac...

2021年8月23日 · Most people’s Jumping spiders make thick, almost fully opaque nests before molting. Most people believe this is always the case, enough to where they would insist a spider isn’t in premolt if the nest is thin. However, this isn’t always true. Some jumping spiders make thin nests, almost resting nest like, however they may indeed be in ...

2013年5月7日 · Hello everyone, my jumping spider have been inside a thicker than normal silk web for 13 days, is she laying eggs or molting. And how long can she stay in there with out any food.

2011年3月28日 · I dunno, when jumping spiders molt, they do it within the safety of their silk retreats. I've never seen any of my jumpers molt out in the open. Sounds like it's dying, to me. I hope that isn't the case, though. If she was in the silk retreat when you found her curled up, then it's possible she's molting if she isn't already an adult.

2023年2月28日 · I’m not experienced in owning a jumping spider at all. I’ve had my jumping spider for 9 days now. since I’ve have her she has never eaten I’ve offered her crickets, meal worms and wax worms. She would attack them and end up spitting them out of her mouth which worried me so I would offer her food everyday.

2016年9月20日 · My experience with jumping spiders is that they'll refuse food if they don't feel like they can take it down. Individuals that refuse crickets, roaches, and grasshoppers usually end up taking caterpillars and flies of similar size.
