Giant Cave Spiderlings

Description
Adds a child version of the GCS to the game, allowing your dwarves to domesticate the species. The spiderlings reach maturity at the age of 2.
Fun fact: the sprite for the baby GCS was already in the vanilla game, and it looks smaller than a regular cave spider. Absolutely adorable.

Note that you may actually not want Giant Cave Spiders to be tame, as they will not haphazardly shoot webs, making them useless for your silk industry. But surely this is a small price to pay for those cute little spiderlings. This mod now appears to play nice with the brilliant Silk Eggs mod!

(Psst! Hey, kid! Do you want to be cool and use the same lingo that's used by real tarantula owners? Look no further than this companion mod!)

I did something similar for Cave Dragons in my mod - also added children with sprites to them, making them tamable. Great idea. Will try out this mod and Silk Eggs.
