A Milestone to my dear P. Regius

[SalticusScenicusStar]

I had my Phidippus Regius, Fuzz for 2 years and 2 months, and she is still in the most perfect condition. This is an abnormally long life for an royal jumping spider species. I am proud as her caretaker, and am also amazed. She is still accepting food really well, and is showing no signs of "coming of age".

I remember first getting her in her first instar stage:

Good for you AND for her...her age speaks to her quality of care..
