I posted a pic of this spider about a month ago and wanted to give an update. This spider has not moved from this cactus pad for about 3 months. A few weeks ago I saw her eating another green spider and at that time I was thinking maybe that was the male she ate after mating. 2 days ago I came to check on her and she had this huge egg sac that she was working on and protecting. Afyer laying all the eggs her but size went down quite a bit. She is currently eating another spider and has her 2 back legs protecting her egg sac. Dont know what Im going to do with a bunch of baby spiders. here is a current pic with egg sac.

I hate spiders, but that's pretty cool. Glad she's with you though, she never would have made it very long with me. A pic of all the babies would be really cool to see, if they don't hatch and leave before you get too see them.

I walk right by this cactus everyday, its right outside my back door and on the way to check on all the torts. This spider has become quite a hit with some of my family members bringing kids to look at it
