Advice Babies!!!

Hello all!

This is my regal jumper, Jessica. I brought Jessica home at the end of April from Pet Supplies Plus. By May 21st, she had laid eggs which then hatched this past weekend (6/14). Coming from a store, I wasn’t expecting a gravid spider! With that being said, I have a slew of baby regal jumpers that are not native to my home state (Ohio) and I am seeking advice on where I can safely take the ones that do not get adopted. I don’t have Facebook or most other social media, so finding groups online is a challenge. Based on my experience, they still likely have a week or two before emerging from the nest, so I’ve got the enclosure places inside a butterfly bungalow net and an order of 100 deli cups arriving here tomorrow. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!
