Ophelia the Monster's "Sphinx" line! Lots of orange females from this clutch!

Bold Jumping Spider - Phidippus audax

Most of these lovely spiders are "Brayantae", a morph that causes the orange markings and patterns you see.

These lovely spiders and many more are looking for new homes in the US! DM me for an inquiry or check my sales list!
