I just completed my third transaction with Chris, this time purchasing a group of R. megaera. Not only are his prices absurdly reasonable, he also ships quickly and effectively, his communication is great, and he hooks up crazy amounts of freebies. I definitely won’t hesitate to do business with...

I’ve got a bunch of CB L2-L4 Phidippus regius (Regal Jumping Spider) slings available for sale or trade in Chicago, IL. Their mother was the beautiful dark morph regius female pictured below. These guys are still pretty small, so I would make sure you have a fruit fly culture on hand when you...

Did a trade with DeShawn and it worked out great! He sent me a healthy S. lobivertex nymph and some red runners in a quickly shipped, carefully prepared package, and communicated regularly throughout the entire process. I am in the process of housing my new specimens as we speak and couldn't be...

I recently bought a group of Giant Kenyan Budwing nymphs, but all of them turned out to be female, so I'd love to buy, or work out some sort of ooth sharing arrangement for, a confirmed male nymph or two. Please PM me if you can help me out!

I’ve got several sexed-pairs of P. perpulchra (Peruvian Leaf Mantis) nymphs available either for trade, or for $35 per pair, plus shipping. Females of this species mature more slowly than their male siblings, so I’m offering pairs of L5-L6 females with L3-L4 males, and I’ll throw in an extra...
