my big female regalis is 8 inches they do get big and mines only around a year and a halfi just wanted to ad this comment about P. regalis.....they can get big brettG a forum member here has one that is a female 9" biggest spider i have seen live....as he handed me my 1" P. regalis he said this is what yours will look like in 5 years LOL so heads up noobs.
wow, might reach 9"?my big female regalis is 8 inches they do get big and mines only around a year and a half
i have read reports of months of pain and cramps.....no fun.....btw...P ornata is another pokie that will get big and has a nasty bite.It's case by case (even if my experience shown me that P ornata is a total hands off animal) and I've seen ppl handling very calm pokies with no problem. They are not that prone to bite, the only problem is when it occurs, you are due for a couple days in hell...
