I wild-caught a gravid (or so it seems) female and she has recently spun an eggsack!... I am very excited about this, but I have no clue how to increase the success of the offspring!... Actually, I don't know if it can even be a viable eggsack, being she has molted several times under my care?!... I know most female spiders cam store sperm, however, they lose it upon a molt... Can this species (Delomedes tenebrosus) store sperm through a molt? Please help if you know anything at all?... These are very interesting spiders, I really want this to be a success! Thanks! Ben
