Phidippus Audax or Phidippus Regius

Who do you think has a friendlier disposition in general or is it individual to every single spood? Thank you

I believe all jumping spiders have friendly dispositions in general. I keep two P. audax's and they've never bitten me, even when I cup them in my hands. They're both sweet guys, so I vote for the P. audax's xD


That being said, I've never kept a regius. I'm sure they're equally as nice lol

I thought that it would be down to the individual. I asked because we have a veiled chameleon and they can be a bit sassy, which turned out true for our Marshmallow.

I have never met an unfriendly jumping spider personally. I have several p. audax and p. apacheanus and they are all quite nice. I would make your choice based on looks personally, the regius looks nicer to me personally but do not live in my area.

All jumping spiders def are friendly; however I will say that my captive bred P. regius are not as easily spooked as my wild caught P. audax are!

That makes sense considering it's a wild caught P. Audax. I settled on a CB P. Audax. I'm so excited!
