2 male fs same nest? maybe the exoskeleton belongs to the other male tat chg skin. Normally fs tat just chg skin kenot fight yet..
Later like fw weeks only can fight.

My FS, Slayer after trained spar few times oso can bite abit... but different style from chop.

Cheers,

Some of the preadult FS have a partial white face. That's my guess.

Viper, thanks for the new clips. Perfect illustrations of chop conversions of Scorpio and Hades. A bit risky allow the chops to see the other males first.

Ya.. Mangrovejumper. What do u think about Slayer?

Its a normal FS but after i let it spar few times with other normal FS, i can see Slayer starts to show aggresive behavior and bite when come close to its enemy. No more arm pushin.. just bite.

Some strong FS if been spar and fight in leaf/nest few times also wont want to fight using the normal way.
After warm up.. try let them fight other stronger FS and see. The angry FS will fight different from normal style.
It will just bite direct like wat Slayer did.

So u think this is part of chop also?

Cheers,

Today din do much cuz got chores to do. I only got 3 FS can fight. Longman, Ioimm, Justine.

Longman vs Ioimm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5X24a72_ZVs

Time to show off Longman upclose for the record. It's arm to body ratio seems small. Power-packed.

17/03/08 - Caught female Bavia
25/3/08 - Changed skin
9/4/08 - Mated
13/4/08 - Laid eggs(4 days after mating!)
23/04/08 - Can see shape of babies(10 days after laying eggs)
24/04/08 - Counted 14 babies
28/04/08 - Female wandered around looking for food but by night will return to nest
Today(29/04/08) - Babies still haven't come out of nest. Mum still protective over nest.

Notes: I think the female ate 2 days after the mating, but since then till yesterday it didnt come out from the nest to find food. But she certainly ate, ate her own eggs. From 100+ eggs, it's down to only 14 slings. So far, no sign that the female would eat the slings. Still 14 or 15(miss count).

I can't tell for sure. You can train a FS male to become very aggressive due to memory of the last fights. But if you let him calm down, he can lose the hyper aggressiveness if he's not a chop. Show Mindstorm la when you see him, he can confirm for you.

Mindstorm: It's a bit sad that you only have 14-15 slings out of the 100+ eggs. Perhaps the female knows which eggs were not going to hatch and ate them. 15% yield is not good at all. What do you plan to do with them once the leave the nest?

Here's an interesting site. This Wayne Maddison guy is an absolute spider man. I looked at the pics for hours until my eyes almost popped out. There is years and years of work there.
Tree of life - Jumping spiders
The spiders are from US, Canada and South America. You may be able to triple or quadruple that if you include the ones from Asia, Europe and Australia.
The pics include Phidippus sp. It confirms my first assumption that the pic I posted is Phiddipus regius, not Phiddipus audax. It has white lines on the sides of the head which is what P. regius has.

Thiania is briefly listed, but not Bavia aericeps. Evarcha flavocincta (Hantu kuning) and Ligurra sp. (Mangrovejumper) are also briefly listed, but no pics.

There are some short mating clips of Habronattus sp. that may be interesting to look at too...part of his research. I learned that spiders are classified mostly by their teeth, haha.

What we've done certainly doesn't compare to what they have, but we have some stuff that's a lot more in depth.

WTF man, I sent the sparring FS( the one that moulted last early week ) to invade the nest of the FS I training and he came out with one arm.

Mangrovejumper: From the pic, you can see one or two unhatched eggs at the bottom. Really don't know why the female ate most of the eggs but like you said, maybe they cannot hatch. If left there, the bad eggs may affect the good ones.

Yeah, I've come across that site before. They are trying to input all types of jumping spiders from all over the world into their database. A huge and ambitious attempt. I'm sure there are many that man have not even seen before.

Now when you're bored and what to see back past FS fights, you don't have to browse through this site or my/viper's/or whoever's youtube account. I have categorized according to their features, the best and unique fights that are worth re-watching in the first post of the first page of this tread. As I post more clips or I see more clips worth noting, then I will update the list.

If you feel any of your clips are left out of the category or have some special feature you want to highlight/worth highlighting or I didn't categorize it right(Some clips have multiple features), just let me know so I will add in/edit it.

To all newcomers, enjoy!

Viper: I remember you had one teeth breaking clip. Which one?

http://www.arofanatics.com/forums/showthre...=316161&page=19

FS will become very fierce if other FS try to invade its nest. It will sure wack kaw kaw1.

Summore u put a smaller lousy FS... sure kantoi la..

If u want to train.. get other FS same size and not 2weak type. At least they are fast and can run away.

That one that bite off arm is another FS, the one in the picture. Longarm can stick and walk liao, but dun want fight. i think must encourage him.
The female fs is caught in same bush with longarm though. in diff container.
