A baby black widow spider is born from an egg sac that the mother creates, which can contain dozens to hundreds of eggs. After the eggs are laid, the mother guards the sac until the spiderlings hatch. Once they emerge, the tiny spiders are independent and must fend for themselves, often dispersing to find food and shelter. The mother may provide some protection initially but will not care for the young after they hatch.
How do black widow spiders eat there food?
Like many other spiders, the jaw parts of black widow spiders are too small and delicate to chew up their prey. So these spiders pump digestive juices into the bodies of their prey. After a while, the digestive fluids will have liquified all the digestible content inside the prey's exoskelaton, and then the spider sucks the fluid back into its own body. Some other kinds of spiders have more robust chelicerae (the parts that are terminated by the fangs), and they have tooth-like protrusions on them. These spiders use their chelicerae to chew up the bodies of prey, adding digestive juices in the process, and so they are able to get nutrition from parts of the prey bodies that black widows can't get at.
