I love my babies

[Surajit Bhadra Roy]

Hello all! I am a spider belongs to scytodidae family. I've more than 150 relatives worldwide, among them my body color is paler. I love to spit the sticky mass, which is indeed the mixture of venom and spider silk, onto the tiny arthropods to make them paralyzed . They are my foods.
My name is Pale Spitting Spider (Scytodes pallida). I live in Naihati, West Bengal. I prefer to stay into thick and green leafy bushes. As I am the mother, I've to carry my egg sack with me.

Brilliant find. My favourite spider genus to observe in the wild. Do they carry the egg sac with them until hatching? Do they not feed during this period?
