Hey Viper, we fought them but they straight away dropped to the ground which really spoiled the momentum.
Yuda's 1st king is smaller than Royal, can see his body and arms length are shorter.
Should be same size as Jong's Durian.
And he lost to Durian, but didnt video it becos we were about to run for cover at that period due to heavy rain.
By the way, the big fs-es we caught everytime are always from the few same old places,
anyone can get them just a matter of luck i think.
Yeah, next week might have more exciting match coming up!

WOW...CAN MEET UP WIF THE PAK CEKOP CLANS..

Today went to measure Royal's body length, was surprised to see that he is measuring at 8mm approximately.
Some new pictures to share.

Great size. Should try to get the genes passed along by offering some virgin females and then releasing the pregnant females nearby.

Wow.. looks like its around the size like Titan, Terminator, Hulk and Spawn.
I tried measure from ur pic.. Royal size is abt 7.8 - 7.9 mm!! Huge man.

Heres the FS pics with my estimation size for Titan - 7.5mm, Hulk - 7.5mm, and Spawn - 7.8-7.9mm size on Mahjong papers.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/608348/+2840

Terminator bigger than hulk - maybe close to to titan or Spawn size range. 7.7 - 7.9 or many 8mm
Cant find any pic on mahjong paper.

My Giant Bu size compare with BigHead. (my most XL FS caught so far)
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/608348/+680
I measured Giant Bu from tip abdomen end till head its 8mm!!!
Bighead size is about 7.2mm.

So the summary of FS size estimation:

Giant Bu - 8mm
Royal - 7.8-7.9mm
Spawn - 7.8-7.9mm
Terminator - 7.8-7.9mm
Titan - 7.5mm
Hulk - 7.5mm
Bighead - 7.2mm
Monster - 7mm

Mindstorm, if u free n want to go SG holiday, can drop by see Royal XL FS.
Base on the pics and the estimated size measured i can say, Royal is bigger than BigHead as well.

Great catch Urahinuk! Agree with Mangrovejumper, better let it breed more with female FS instead of fighting...
nowdays.. these extra large size FS are hard to find.

Yo Mangrovejumper and Viper88, yeah i think so too... Think i will catch a nice virgin bu soon to try to breed, haha.
But whether the babies will really inherit the "big fs genes", i'm not too sure about that. Ya Viper, because it is sooo hard to get XL-size nowadays, it is natural to not let the fs fight often, or rather avoid all big fights at all, i know this sounds ironic though.
But i think this period is the "good season" at our usual spot, the other bros will also soon get L to XL sizes fs i believe.
I saw your Giant Bu's picture on grid, wow the head width is really wide, measured at 2.7mm! The other bu look so small compared to her in the clip too. And 1 thing is always true about fs size, without comparison, every big fs will look normal to you when you get used to it after sometime. I remember my few ex fs including Blademaster, Kane and Sky, though they all measured at 7.5mm at the later stage of captivity, the only clear difference i can tell between these 3 fs with Royal is the arms length. Though i didnt get the chance to compare them side by side, based on the pictures i took for them, Royal is the only one who shows abnormally long arms, but definitely not the thickest type. Seng's Bullet and BTL's Titan are very good examples with long and THICK arms. And too bad i didnt get to see Terminator and Robocop these 2 big fs in reality. If got a chance to compare all these big fs side by side, how nice will it be..
And to sum up, all these big fs were all "neighbours" to each other.

Viper,
Great work for doing some historical comparison of sizes!
But i do wonder wheather having a full stomach could affect the length measured. Royal looks pretty well fed in that pic, while some others like Titan had a much less filled abdomen.

Looks like Singapore is coming out with all the king kongs.

Mangrovejumper,
Once again, u have beautiful pics there. And again u smuggle a salticidae thousands of miles back to ur home. Was it a ferocious/glutton type like hyllus?
With its fury pedipalps, the spidey in ur pics bear some resemblance to hyllus genus. If it moves and turn sloooowly, then it would certainly be close.

Right now i am keeping a couple of hyllus and quite a few fs too. haha, i maybe quiet but still very much messing around with jumpers. When i get back my camera which i lent to my bro, i hope to share some nice pics too.

have u seen this?

damn cool.

Ura,
Yea, help Royal to pass his genes down if u can. Wont be easy though to catch "virgin" females that can match his size.
What sort of container are u keeping ur Royal Highness?

Yo bros,

Tomorrow Sunday 2pm at NT*, if u are free. Hope not raining.....

It was hot and sunny.
Peter (aka Buaya), Vincent, Ah Ong (Ken25's friend), Ura, the Pakcekop Clan
and Jong met at NT* to fight their fs. The matches were recorded by Ura.
From what i can see, right now the 3 biggest spiders are Ura's Royal, Ah Ong's Rocketman and Yuda's 1st King.
Fendi and Jong also talked about Rashif's Ironman (see video posted by Ura at post #12). He was a very good fighter, like TFM, Bullet and BoomBoom.
Undefeated in his prime.

Later Ura and Jong travelled in Inn's van to a spider lily area off Lim Chu Kang road where Inn caught and released a spider
about the size of Royal some time ago. We saw a number of M-size kangs. Ura kept one for sparring.
Next time we will try here again for L-size.....

Okay, that's it from Jong for now.

Good Luck to everyone!!!!!

I still prefer fruit flies. Easy to catch coz there will be alot of them when i place banana or fruit skin outside my house.
I will select the fat juicy ones for my KINGs.. the normal or medium size for my other lower ranking FS.
Yeah.... i'm bias.

Heys guys i saw this LARGE black thiania species, look almost like normal species, but face is grey instead of white, top of head have one silver band. legs and butt also got dull blue bands. The bands on butt got 2 bands, like normal, but is more straight than bent.
What kind of "pao" is this?

and random info for malaysian bros: Fighting Spiders ( TV series ) Season 2 is back!

woo hoo! my king Vortex won my friends spider!
