She's around 7" or so. She's a beauty. :) I have to add a disclaimer- the blue tinting is from the flash.
Ya usually the flash adds something but even without the blue its super pretty...

Had to crop this photo a lot more then I liked due to the size, but here's my 3.25 inch p.regalis female.

Do you have a ventral picture? Sorry to sound like an idiot and I hope I am wrong but that looks like an male to me...

It is a 100% female. Confirmed by molt. The abdoman band doesn't turn fully white on females until 4 inches, and this ones only 3.25. The abdoman stripe method to sex pokies doesn't work unless the t is over 4-4.5 inches. After this ones recent molt, it has gotten considerably lighter.

I haven't got a ventral because my uploaded on my ipad is acting up, I'll go on my laptop later and put one up :)

Here's a link to her ventral http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/gallery/showimage.php?i=35372&c=9

Decided to rehouse my striata communal today. It started off with one female who hatched her sac out and I left 15 slings with her about 2 years ago. Since then I have given away 2 of those juvies (Leaving 13 from that original sac) and mated her again and got a sac from her last year. I pulled the sac and gave her 10 babies back from that batch. Unfortunately only 2 of those babies are still around. So currently I am sitting with the adult female, 13 juvies between 10 and 14 cm (5 females and 8 males it seems) and 2 unsexed slings around 4 cm.
Here they are while rehousing:

Nice picture. Do you plan to keep them communally even after they've reached maturity?
