Spiders

Fishing spiders are large and powerful spiders. They more often hide during the day and hunt at night. They, like many predators, are not much inclined to run away at the first sign of trouble. Some fishing spider, in Great Britain, have the reputation of having a very nasty bite. So if any animal, even a human, does not take their formidable appearance serious, then they may get bitten.

Fishing spiders use silk "safety ropes" to protect themselves when climbing, so they can "bail out" and fall great distances very rapidly without getting hurt.

These spiders are not inherently aggressive. If you don't grab one of them you will be very unlikely to get bitten.

Tarantulas have 2,000 babies.

Check the link for a sample of different spiders.

Almost all spiders are venomous. "Earth spiders" are creatures in Japanese mythology. Maybe you mean "earth tiger" spiders, which are a family of spiders in China and SE Asia. They are indeed venomous.

The LAD is called the widowmaker because it's blockage more often results in death. Other blockages causing heart attacks don't have such a high rate of mortality.

it would have to be either the brown recluse or the black widow

all spiders are venomous

The camel spider is not poisonous. However they can penetrate human skin, and painful bites have been reported, leaving gaping wounds if the victim survives but this happens rarely.

arachnids

that would be a black widow. very dangerous. stay away from them. not a very nice spider to get bitten by! haha

It isn't a black widow. Black widows have a red hourglass shape on their belly.

Brown recluse, Black Widows & Tarantulas

You are describing a Bold Jumping spider. Very common from the great plains to the east coast. Note the adults have white spots while the juveniles have the orange spots. Most easily Identified by the green/blue iridescent fangs or chelicerae. They are quite harmless, rarely bite humans and if they do, It only leave a slight redness and irritation.

wat kind of species is it i hav alot of spiders and im only 12 not taratulas but i hav exsperons it probaly molted if it is not eating or moving around as much then it had molted and its body is very fragile.but i hav to warn u dat u do not put in another spider because if u do u wil hav to say bye bye to ur spider because when spiders are molting they leave them self open to attack are very fragil they dont eat and after molting give them som time and they wil be hunting purfectly

No. There is no need. Spiders hatch fully armed and prepared.

Flies are insects. They have six legs, three main body sections (head, thorax and abdomen) and have two sensory appendages. Spiders are arachnids. They have eight legs, two main body parts (head and abdomen) and never have sensory appendages.

spiders reproduce i believe through a small opening near the spinnerets....the female doesnt actually lay eggs but carries them on her back through the gestation period until the eggs hatch.

________________________________________________________________

Some spiders lay eggs, sometimes in sacs in under rocks or tree bark, and some do carry the eggs and young on the back. Most mother spiders defend their eggs and sometimes their spiderlings.

All insects breathe through spiracles, except for insects that live in the water.

A water stick insect breathes through an air tube.

Bad? No.

Dangerous? Some are.

Spiders are not as harmful to humans as many insects. They tend not to land on, or spoil, food. They don't spread the diseases that many insects and other animals carry.

In fact, most spiders are beneficial to us - because they eat insects which are harmful to us.

As to "bad" - no, it is people who are "bad".

A spider falls under the classification of arachnid and are there for cold blooded. The spider uses the thermoregulation system of Poikilothermy, as its body temperature rises and falls with their environment. The term cold blooded refers to the way in which the bodily temperature changes with the environment. There are three main areas of thermoregulation under the umbrella term cold bloodedness. Ectothermy - this refers to creatures that control their temperatures by external means, such as the sun, flowing air or water. Poikilothermy - this refers to the creatures who's body temperature rises and falls with the surrounding environment. These creatures would be cold in cold areas and hot in hot ones, changing as they move between them. Bradymetabolism - this refers to creatures who have a high active metabolism and a low resting metabolism. These creatures can undergo dramatic changes in their metabolic rate, depending on food availability and temperature. This allows creatures, such as those who live in the desert, able to shut down their body's and approach a near death sate, to survive harsh desert winters, until favourable conditions return. Only a few creatures fall into all three categories, or use more than one method to control their body temperature. Most creatures rely on one type of thermoregulation to survive, such as snake and lizards lying on rocks, or insect vibrating their muscles in one place to keep warm. It was originally thought that cold blooded creatures were incapable of controlling their bodily temperatures. It is now known that this is not the case and the term is therefore outdated in scientific content today.

All "Arachnids" have eight and only eight legs. Any spider is a member of the Arachnid family.

It should take a few days or weeks, months at the max.

Improvement: I've been keeping an orbweaver spider for the last week or two and she made her nest about 5 days ago. I'll try and get back to this board when they hatch.

I copied this answer from Yahoo

Most crab spiders will have two successful hatches of eggs every year. Once the eggs are attached, the female will stay within the vicinity, like you are already observing. The time it takes for the eggs to hatch is based on several parameters, the most important being temperature. The best option in captivity is not to alter the temperature too drastically. Maybe place a small lamp near the eggs and keep them at room temperature, but turn off the light at night to better mimic natural conditions. It could be anywhere from 2 weeks to a month, but probably closer to 2 weeks.

Once the eggs hatch, the young spiderlings are still soft and fragile, and usually will not start eating each other for about 2 days or so....this is not always the case, but as a general rule, they typically need at least a day for their tiny exoskeletons to harden before they start searching for a meal. Your best option is to leave them for a day, and then release them, once outside they will disperse on their own.

You can hold onto your female because she may not be done laying eggs, many spiders are capable of storing sperm for long periods, and she may be able to producer another clutch of eggs, especially since you mentioned she is eating well.

The main groups of spider developed about 200 million years ago, in the Triassic period. Spider-like arachnids are known from towards 400 million years ago, and some true spiders are known from about 300 million years ago in the Carboniferous period.

The spiders are part of the Arthropod family, which dates back to the Cambrian era, 500 - 600 million years ago.

Nope. All spiders live solitary lives and even die before their young can hatch hatch. There's never been such thing as a colony of spiders except for the ones who follow Aragog. 😉
