I started with 6 of these and named them Hugh (I know it was Pugh, but I didn't want two spiders with the same name), Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grubb. However, 29/11/2002, Hugh, Barney McGrew and Cuthbert were the only survivors.

Notice the back 2 legs which are 
the two new ones, a lot larger 
than I expected
 
On moult 6, Hugh turned into an ant 
(losing two legs), they should re-appear 
after the next moult. On the seventh 
moult all legs re-appeared, on the eighth 
moult all the legs looked the same again
