Behavior

It inherits IM Spider climbing, mining, support, melee, and Nexus behavior. Adult mothers lay eggs that hatch into 3–6 random baby mobs from the configured queen-spider offspring tag, preserving the Nexus target.

Eggs & counterplay

Laid eggs are attackable mob entities. Hit and destroy them before they hatch to prevent their stored offspring from joining the attack.

Hatching occurs after the egg timer exceeds 125 ticks, about 6.3 seconds after laying at 20 TPS. Server lag increases real waiting time. Each egg contains the 3–6 offspring chosen by its mother.

Eggs cannot be pushed by mobs or displaced with knockback. Damage can hurt them but will not move them away from their nest. Attack them directly instead of trying to shove them out of the arena.

Customize the exact offspring pool, merge or replace its defaults, and check baby/Nexus inheritance using the datapack tag guide.

Drops

Loot follows the vanilla Spider table. Adult IM spider logic also adds a 25% Small Remnants roll.

String • vanilla rates
Spider Eye • vanilla rates
Small Remnants • 25%

Vanilla replacement

No vanilla mob maps specifically to the Mother Spider; it is selected by waves or its spawn egg.
