So the egg sac hatched with the female sometime late december not as many as her previos sac but estimated about 25-35 babies, whats intresting to watch is when the mom kills the roach/cricket all the babies come and eat from it

some pics:

not sure if you guys can see the slings all together and feeding there ( too much webbing)
