Question about P. Regalis?

[Weapon-X]

Do P. regalis slings around the size 3/4-1'' display the creme colored belly band that only P. regalis has as far as pokies go? i was just looking at mine and was wondering that, because none of them have any type of a belly band?? they are all 1'', anyone know? thanks your help is greatly appreciated--Jeff

My regalis sling is about 1 1/2" now, and doesn't have his belly band yet, the whole abdomen (except for the markings on top) is sort of reddish brown.

oh ok cool, thanks for the quick respose man!, yeah i was wondering because i've never had a regalis sling until now, i had adults but not slings, so they must get it with age then huh? cool thanks--Jeff

yeah, the banding does come with age...Those should begin displaying it within the next 3-4 molts. My 3" female just got hers with her last molt, for example, though the timing could vary by the individual spider.
Good luck with them
