Ready to start your own jumping spider colony? This incredible bundle of six Regal Jumping Spider slings is your ticket to one of the most rewarding invertebrate-keeping experiences in the hobby. Regal Jumping Spiders (Phidippus regius) are the largest jumping spider species in North America, and these captive-bred slings are bursting with potential — each one will develop its own unique personality and stunning coloration as it matures.
At just $60 (marked down from $100), you’re paying $10 per sling — an unbeatable value whether you’re raising them yourself, sharing with friends, or starting a small breeding project. Jumping spiders have exploded in popularity on TikTok and Instagram for good reason: they’re curious, interactive, and endlessly entertaining.
These unsexed babies are eating cricket prey items and thriving. Slings are easy to raise in small deli cups with ventilation, and they grow quickly with regular feeding. Whether you’re a seasoned keeper or a newcomer looking for an affordable entry into the jumping spider world, this six-pack is the perfect starting point.
- Regal Jumping Spiders have the sharpest vision of any arthropod on Earth — their two large anterior median eyes work like tiny telephoto lenses, allowing them to see in full color and track prey with laser precision.
- Jumping spiders don’t use webs to catch food. Instead, they stalk and pounce on their prey like miniature cats, leaping distances of up to 50 times their own body length!
- Each Regal Jumping Spider develops unique patterning and coloration as it matures — males often display striking black and white patterns with iridescent green chelicerae (fangs).
