Stella is Expecting!

Hi friends! It's Stella! I have amazing news. I'm going to be a mommy! Over the Labor Day weekend, I produced an egg sac. My egg sac is like a round, brown balloon. It's pretty big! I'm so proud of it. Inside that egg sac are over 1,000 baby spiders, or spiderlings. Whew! I'm tired.

My egg sac which contains over 1,000 of my babies.

Please be very careful and look, but don't touch. I worked very hard to make this strong enough to protect my children. If you see this, please be very careful. In about a week and a half, my little spiderlings should start to emerge. I can't wait! I hope that they look like me.
