LinkShe's my lil darling, I adore her so much! I'm also currently caring for about 130 spiderlings (not related to this gal, their mother is tan with really pretty heart shaped markings and very little black coloration, same species though!) and I'll eventually sell most of them! It's a lot of work, but I love them, they're lovely!
So cute!! I also have a regal jumping spider and I named him Regal cause why not.
Does she have name?
I found him on a leaf in my front yard and I decided to pick him up and keep him because he seemed to not mind about being held. He lives in a pickle jar with leaves for now but he seems to be obsessed with the stick I put in there. He also seems to really like it when my sister opens her laptop because he sits on the side of the glass
and stares at it while it's up.
AA, oh my gosh that's so cool!! My jumpers right now are alright with being held, but one of my first regals seemed to actively enjoy it (I named her Chell!) when she was still alive. She full-on would cuddle up to my fingers, when my hand was partially closed, probably because she enjoyed the warmth and felt safe and hidden, and I'd take her outside to bask a lot. I wish I had regals native where I live, but bolds are pretty cool too so I can't be too disappointed I guess :') And heck yeah, I don't think the Phantastic Phids website is up anymore as of last year, but they might still sell upon request? They have a YouTube channel which is pretty neat! World of Phids is cool too, although they mainly sell younger spiderlings so fruit flies are typically also a must if you buy from them, which can be a hassle. Still worth it imo, though! Also, if you ever get new enclosures there are ton's of premade/custom setups on Etsy that are incredible if you can find some that aren't too expensive! Plus just cute cage-
