TOTAL IDIOT HATCHES BLACK WIDOW SPIDER BABIES (Helping a Single Mother of 213)

in #animals5 years ago

They are sooooo cute!!!


I'm not sure what you would do if you found a Mama Black Widow Spider with her egg sac, but I thought we should try to see they'd hatch. Sure enough, soon we had 213 of the tiniest, cutest little baby Black Widow Spiders on our hands, and the best part is that you can all join in and help out by naming them!!!! Yay! The first 213 comments featuring names for our new, cute little babies will actually be hand delivered to the baby spiders! How cool is that?

Most people would have reached for the Raid. So name one Raid.

Pepperbyte?

Took a look at your store. Since I live in Africa, I cannot buy the seeds I want.

This reminded me of something I saw elsewhere.

The seller created a rough paper which he sells at 5 sheets per lot minimum (I think). What is interesting about the paper is, once you have it, you put it in water for a while and then 'plant' it with a light cover of soil. The papaer is made out of seeds, which then grow.

As long as the person receiving the paper does not tell the customs official, I guess none of them are going to realise what they are allowing through.

If you make such paper...please do not include baby spiders....

I like the names "excruciating pain" and "agonizing death" and "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts". How about "medic!!!", that might work.

Oooh, all excellent choices!

"Webster"

Deal, consider it done!

"bob"

"pepper-spiders 1 through 250"

"garfield"

"trumpity"

that's what came to mind as far as naming them went 😆

Haha. Awesome! We kept a black widow for a few months, but went on vacation, and couldn't ask the pet-sitters to also watch a black widow... Their silk is amazing stuff, though.

I am SOOOO happy you did this. If I could find one around here I would have had her egg sack hatching. My wife freaked when I just told her... LOL.

Names would follow the similar theme:
stomp, smack, tromp, hit, thwack, tread, kick, crush, pinch, flatten, etc.

name one 'not sure'

  1. black widow spider
  2. 213 babies
  3. black and red
  4. six legs

4+ @ironshield, eight legs. if one had 6 you could call it "I lean", haha

"I lean" that's funny!

How in the world did you manage to count them? Of course she is a single mom...but...she eats the dad! Hence the "name". Widow!

I know that they play a part in the grand scheme of things.... but, I believe the title explains the results of the choice to "raise" venomous arachnids.

I will withhold the endearing gesture of naming all but the last one.

Peter Parker...aka... well you know.

KILL THEM ALL

Now that's a GREAT NAME for a beautiful little baby girl spider. She'll be known as "Kill them all....." but hopefully she'll never live up to her name, or I'll blame you!

Soak them all in kerosene, and light 'em up. :)

I think Cuddles is good name for such cute little babies.

They are cute, though.

"Fang poker"
"Little bugger"
"Ouch"
"Hospital Bill"
"ER"
"Swelling"
"Small Bite"
"No Big Deal"
"Is that a tick?"
"What's that red thing on it's back?"
"Just a flesh wound"
"Bandaid"
"Not poison"
"venom"

Hello my friend! :D

How about "scary", "legs", or "cool and creepy" (if there are any twins), "dangerous", "deadly", "run away". :D LOL. :D

Okay now seriously, how about "Charlotte", "Moe", "Carla", "Darla", "Joe", and "Smarty"? :D There are so many its hard to think of names for them all, but we as a community and you as a family can figure it out I'm sure. :D

Juliet, send me a Girl, LOL!

How did you count them? Count the legs, and divide by 8? :)

They have a similar spiders in Australia with the marks on their backs they call a red back spider.

If you add ammonia, they are easier to ship to the people who named (adopted?) them, LOL.
