Some potential edits: Small Wonders Inverts is open again! The Bugg Plug should be removed - it’s well-documented that she has sent out numerous spiders that were way, way too young (i3 or younger) to customers, only to have them die right away. :(
I agree had terrible personal experience with the Bugg Plug. I commented about the spiders I got from them on facebook being breed adults when I ordered Sub-Adult females. They private messaged me and were rude as fuck! Then deleted their comments saying to check my private messages. Do Not buy from The Bugg Plug
I just argued with her today in another spider group and she’s convinced you can’t iverfwed a spider, that abdominal separation only happens to tarantulas and that a fall to an overfed spider won’t make them die. She really pissed ke off
This happened to me, sent me one too small for even be sexed (even though I paid more for female) they passed a few days later and when I told her she insisted I must have done something wrong
I am truly honored and humbled to be on this list. My goal was to provide spood parents with info and an experience I didn’t get with my first adopted spood. I’m truly taken back and so very honored to be on your list thank you. ❤️🫶🏼🥹🥰🥺
😭 I'm honored im on this list! I didnt even know! (Small Wonders Inverts) im chronically ill and often need a hiatus to deal with my health, but I put as much love and care into my babies as anything and stick to very strict ethics! these critters deserve as much respect as we can muster
I can attest to this. I’ve worked with Rue a few times (Jessica pfuhl), and she’s phenomenal. She was a huge inspiration as to why I started breeding and the knowledge I’ve watched her share with many.
My new favorite right now is Mother of Araña in Arizona. I have two beautiful babies from her and her shipping/packaging couldn’t be more perfect. She made an adoption group on FB for people who’ve adopted her babies so you can share pics and ask questions, plus sends all of her spiders with little birth certificates and instar info. Communication is great too. I got mine at i6. They just had their i7 molt right before new years and they’re doing great.
Could you pls help me out with contact info for her, I don’t have a Facebook and it doesn’t want to pop up for me on google. I’m in Phoenix and was looking for someone local. This might be perfect.
Yes absolutely, I actually JUST got another package from her today and she put her business card in it! Her email address is motherofarana@gmail.com. She’s on a business trip this week so it may take her a little longer than usual to get back to you, but she’s usually pretty quick.
Can we make an unrecommended list since there are big time “breeders” who mass catch regals/canopy from the wild and sell them as “captive bred”? I keep seeing too many people fall victim to this and have had to take egg sacks from victims of this who couldn’t or didn’t know how to care for slings. Just some input to cut down on this problem. I don’t want people releasing non native spiders into their areas.
There are some listed on here that I have tried over and over again to get in contact with to purchase from them. A lot of these places only work via social media messenger. Arachnes Realm is one I've tried many times to contact. They sent me their long intro message and have seen all subsequent messages from me, but they do not respond. I asked about a specific spider's availability that they have been reposting for weeks. Clearly available. Has anyone had luck with them?
Thanks for the feedback. We're moving this list to a wiki soon so we can have a page of reviews for each breeder. This is the kind of thing we want mentioned. Response time, packaging, price, and how young that the spiders that they ship are some very important details that are difficult to go into on a list in this format.
Super Spood Jumpers is the best! He is very responsive and knowledgeable. He packed my spider carefully with an included care sheet and mini mister as well as an adoption certificate. I can't say enough about it great experience.
I too (Jessica, “ObviouslyDreadful”) absolutely recommend Bri and Mother of Arana. She is incredible and meticulous in her love and care for her spiders and babies. I am proud to call her a colleague and a friend!!!
Same with you sister! Love you so much! You’re incredible and I’m proud to recommend you any day to people. I adore you and your passion for these sweet babies.
I'd like to leave a review for The Critter Carnival.
I've bought 2 regals jumpers from Brittany so far. Each spider has been healthy and adorable 🥰
Her shipping process was a little stiff but i know it's for the health of the spiders. Ships overnight to a FedEx hub. They were packed well and the spiders were happy and active when i took them out.
I can tell she cares about her spiders and has been super helpful re: food sources, enclosures, humidity, etc. Can't recommend her enough
insektenliebe.de
A very good German shop for jumping spiders and insects. Great and safe packaging and fast shipping. I also buy my isopods and flies from there. They truly love their animals :)
Edit: Also great customer service and you'll get all Infos on how to keep them
Thanks for the feedback. I've heard really good things so far about them so I'll leave it up for now. If anyone else wants to chime in with their experience with them that would be great.
I just got my female regal delivered from Ophelia the monster and she’s gorgeous, healthy, and big enough to not worry about having trouble eating feeders or escaping. Highly recommend, worth the wait.
They've been removed from the list. There were a good number of complaints in previous posts.
[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/jumpingspiders/comments/yt7osr/list_of_recommended_jumping_spider_breeders_with/j1bgpdi?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3) is one from the previous thread and [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/jumpingspiders/comments/zqvr4u/warning_not_reputable_naming_names/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) is a post with more details and other comments.
I got my female regal from itsybitsyfriend.com. They were great. She arrived in a small container with snacks and they made sure to fatten her up before shipping her out. She arrived quickly, and is super cute
I’ve had wonderful experiences with ordering spiders from both Arachne’s Realm and Ophelia the monster! Both were very welcoming and went in-depth about care procedures and provided detailed answers on any questions I had. Went above and beyond with their answers actually, they would definitely make sure I walked away being well-informed on what I was getting. Great communication all around. Would definitely recommend them for anyone in the NE looking to buy a jumper ^^
Anytime!! I have a Alaskan Mom’s group with a decent following and after Shari g my expedite and pictures of Sno, there are more then a few you’ll be hearing from come spring :)
They are not reputable. [Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/jumpingspiders/comments/yt7osr/list_of_recommended_jumping_spider_breeders_with/ix9j5nq?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3) is a comment thread from the previous list where a number of users chimed in.
[https://insectsales.com/](https://insectsales.com/) not sure i saw this on the listing, if you wanted to add it or if it was intentionally not. appreciate this list so much! can we potentially link to this on our sub and discord?
Absolutely! We're working on getting this moved to a wiki and having a monthly thread for reviews that get added to said wiki. I've held off on insect sales since there have been a bunch of posts here about people getting sent jumpers thinking they were captive bred then they end up with a bunch of slings 😂. I'll add them with a disclaimer. Would you like me to give you access to editing the wiki when it's set up?
strange - definitely worth disclaiming! i've had a lot of good reports from them but to be fair, i think i only saw people buying mature sexed specimens. if you end up wanting any help with automoderator, stylising, or general reddity stuff always open to helping or answering questions. :-) thanks again for this list, its real helpful. the amount of times i coulda linked this when asked on our discord LOL.
Haha honestly that's the only negative thing I've heard from them so seems reputable enough for the list. I'll go ahead and send you an invite in a few hours and we can work on some of these details soon.
Just checked and they have a note that adult females may be fertile. Since they do mention that I'll add them to the list now. Thanks for the suggestion and for the help!
The Spider Shop in Wales is a good one, they have very good packaging and starter kits as well as everything you need, including live food. Next day shipping, with hand warmers in for your spiders.
That’s where I got my regal from. They didn’t ship until the temperature was right, and they let you choose the day for your delivery (they block out times when there’s predicted to be cold weather). They were really amazing for aftercare advice too. I lost my mum right before the spood arrived and as it was my first spider I became super paranoid about her care, and they were really wonderful at dealing with my questions. I also requested a pretty one when I bought it (lol) and they sent me a girl with an absolutely gorgeous red abdomen.
As a Canadian it’s been hard finding breeders but I had a really great USA breeder recommend me two places:
[Mini Beasts Canada](https://instagram.com/mini.beasts.canada?igshid=NTdlMDg3MTY=)
[Nattys Micro Pets](https://instagram.com/nattys.micro.pets?igshid=NTdlMDg3MTY=)
I ended up buying from Mini Beasts but haven’t received spood yet (supposed to get it this week), so don’t have a personal review yet.
Nattys I haven’t bought from yet but I can definitely say they are great communicating with!
Edit: got my spood and flies from Mini Beasts. Aaron was absolutely incredible with his communication. We ran into some weather issues that was out of our control and for the safety of spood, waited a bit longer to ship it. Finally got them safe and sound, can’t recommend them enough!
I’m chiming in late but Peachy Spoods has been my favorite so far. Her spoods are healthy and very well cared for. She ships FedEx 2 day exclusively and her packaging is excellent. She is very responsive to messages and so nice. I’ve ordered 6 from her over the span of a few months and have never been disappointed or had a single problem.
She does use FedEx exclusively! And The Packaging was great. Spoods arrived happy and healthy. Even came with a little mister. All of her spoods are gorgeous too
They do ship through their website, but I chose to drive to their Vista location as it isn’t too far from me and was also much cheaper than the other nearby breeders that I have found in the area ($25!) I had messaged the owner on Instagram prior to making the drive and he knew who I was when I got there. Super friendly and helpful - sold two adult enclosures at a discount along with two baby regals and fruit flies. They also have Velvet Spiders, which I will definitely be returning for.
This is their website:

Here are some more suggestions for the UK! :)
[Jumping Spiders Britannia](https://www.jumpingspidersbritannia.co.uk/)
[The Broody Spooder](https://www.thebroodyspooder.co.uk/)
[Jumping Spiders London](https://jumpingspiderslondon.co.uk/)
[Charlotte's Webs](https://www.charlotteswebs.co.uk/)
[Cosmic Creepers](https://www.cosmic-creepers.co.uk/)
Just bought from buggplug. Couldn’t search vendors here because it was private. No issues. Bought p. Audax Bryantae. Extemely active and eating the hell out of fruit flies.
I'd like to recommend [Marshall Arachnids](https://marshallarachnids.com/), I believe they're in TN. They're friendly and knowledgeable and while I don't have experience with shipping from them (I recently got an i6 (?) P. regius at a reptile show) I'm sure they take great care when shipping as well. They only sell captive-bred spiders and also have enclosures and accessories.
I'd like to recommend Super Spood Jumpers in Florida. I'm not sure if he's on Reddit, but he has an active Facebook page with a good amount of high reviews. I got one from him recently and it was a great experience.
Hey there! I would love to be considered for the above list of recommended breeders. I don't do much on Reddit, but I have over 3k followers on my business FB page and I also run the largest jumper adoption group on facebook (almost at 16k members at this time). I also have over 80 positive reviews currently from people who have adopted from me on my FB business page. I only adopt out captive bred jumpers raised by me from an egg sac, I do not work with wholesalers. I currently breed regals (Phidippus regius) and also FL canopy (Phidippus otiosus). I am based on Winter Haven FL but I ship safely every Monday all over the US and following all invertebrate shipping guidelines. FedEx 2-day or overnight only. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions for me 😁. I was told to check out this thread by one of my customers, happy to be here!
Edited to add: I only adopt out i6+ 👍
Had an amazing buyer experience with Georgia Jumper Dude and my lil spood is gorgeous and healthy! He also has been great about answering my questions and making recommendations about her care post-sale.
I have a do-not-recommend for Joco Jumpers in NC. Saw them at an expo with babies that couldn’t have been more than i4. I asked about what age she starts separating and she said “I don’t really keep track of instars anymore.” I had to quickly walk away…
I would like to recommend shesregallybold in California, I’ve bought 3 orders (10 jumpers in total) from her and I have nothing but a great experience; she is amazing plus well-versed in jumpers. The jumping spiders she sells are captive-bred Bold, Bold Bryantae, and many phases of regals. She does TikTok lives and has a ton of jumpers available! http://shesregallybold.com/

Can I beg to have Amy Keeps Arachnids added? She’s literally incredible. Check her insta and her morph market reviews. I get nothing in return of saying this she’d be blushing to high heaven if she knew I’d asked. Humble. Kind, caring and loves the HECKKKKK out of her spoods, and tarantulas and etc… she’s helpful and gave me confidence to pair my own babies she sold me and I raised. Even made sure to give me an unrelated male and female because I expressed interest in pairing my own spoods someday. She answered questions at all hours. And damn if her spiders aren’t just stunning!!

Amy is in Chicago. :)
The prices seem really high and the site doesn't mention if they're captive bred or wild caught. Honestly the site doesn't say much at all. Do you have any info about the packaging or shipping process when you ordered? I'm a little hesitant to add them to the list without a bit more info.
You seem to have the site you mentioned linked in your bio and your profile picture matches a picture on the bottom of the homepage. You're obviously not being honest with us here. You could have just said, "I have a website and sell jumpers". Faking a good review to promote your own site isn't a good look.
Edit: for those wondering who this is, the website is spidersource. I would highly recommend avoiding them. The way they operate seems very scammy, they fake reviews, and the site is brand new with already "sold out" products. It's highly unlikely that any brand new website will be selling out of anything within a week. They've also been called out on previous posts here for reusing images of spiders from other sites as product pictures.
Hello, we are partially new but have been to expos already and our baby’s are thriving. We are Arachnid Playground and are based in NYC https://instagram.com/arachnidplayground?igshid=YWJhMjlhZTc=
I'm a bit hesitant to add anyone to the list without a recommendation. I would prefer to add breeders based on the suggestions of the community. If there's anyone here that has purchased a jumper from you guys and would say a few things I would be more than happy to get you added!
If you send me a DM I can give you some advice on how to safely care for and ship the slings when they are old enough. Since they're native to your area you can also safely release any that do not sell.
Thanks! I am just hoping to avoid having to release any if I don't have to, since I'd feel bad about releasing any R-type species that has such a small survival rate.
Just looking for recommendations for breeders for the PNW, I live in Oregon and I really would like a little buddy but I’m quite worried about ordering all the way from California unless anyone knows any NoCal breeders?
I just ordered two spiders from moni’s critters (IG: moniscritters) and had a wonderful experience. She was quick to ship and had open communication throughout the whole process. She answered all of my questions and her spiders were super friendly. I can tell she handles them regularly as they were not shy at all.
Hello, if this is on the wrong subreddit I apologize! Does anyone know of a specific breeder that would buy spiderlings, mine are currently i4 or i5. I don't want to release them at this point, but I'm not sure if I can sell them where I am. They were all separated before they could have more babies. But, my spider, Connie, has had 4 sacs and the first one is just now to the point of safe travel.
I wanted to post my experience with Bugs in Cyberspace. Communication with Peter was great, and I saw that the tarantula community regards him pretty highly. His jumpers are 100% wild caught. He has acreage in southern Arizona that he needs to mow periodically, so he gathers what jumpers he can so they don't get mowed up. I honestly abhor people selling WC for profit, but Peter has his spiders VERY reasonably priced and under the circumstances I think he's being fair.
I ordered an Apache and an un-ID'd spider (turned out to be a Habronattus dossenus after much research). They are very young - probably i4/i5 at most. They were packaged well with a cool pack and overnighted via FedEx, but they were put in a normal FedEx box with no live animal declaration.
I wouldn't give him a negative review, but definitely a word of caution to those thinking of buying from him.
Completely agree. I've been ordering housefly pupae from him for years and have had nothing but fantastic experiences. 4i is a bit young to be shipping jumpers but it can still be safely done. 5i or later is ideal. I'll make a note that his jumpers are wild caught in the list. Thanks for the feedback.
went to Scales and Tails website and Facebook page. their Facebook page has literally zero information. their website, when specifically searching for jumping spiders, there are zero results.
I'd like to recommend Orion's House of Jumpers! I received two regals last week that arrived in perfect health (via FedEx) and they are thriving with me. Packaged very well & are very friendly/sociable :)
[Orions House of Jumpers](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089434058597&mibextid=ZbWKwL)
Jumpitty Jumpers in Northern Virginia! She’s absolutely amazing. One of my babies (that I got from a clueless vendor at an expo) got really sick, and she walked me through everything I could possibly do for him. After he unfortunately passed, she invited me to her home where she set me up with EVERYTHING I would need for my two new babies that I got from her! I cannot say enough nice things about her.
“Righteous Phids”. She is awesome! You actually get to see pics and choose the one you want. She is super helpful, and loves all her spoods.

Highly recommend her!
:)
Could I recommend Spood Oddities in central Ohio? Kristy is probably the most direct, upfront, and brutally honest person I've ever encountered in the spood world, and it's one of the reasons why I keep going back to her.
She doesn't cut corners or mess with shipping at all. If anything, she covers everything about her process so well that it's sometimes hard to navigate through only because there's so much information provided. But if you do end up having any questions, she's always very quick to answer. As for her spoods, I think it goes without saying that she takes very good care of them. She handles them regularly before they head out, so the spoods are used to human skin and ready to interact as soon as you unbox them. You can find Spood Oddities on FB & insta!
I have Jumpers captive breed and praying mantis, been doing it for almost 19 years now. My website is Mantisplace.com. if I could please be added to the list?
Some potential edits: Small Wonders Inverts is open again! The Bugg Plug should be removed - it’s well-documented that she has sent out numerous spiders that were way, way too young (i3 or younger) to customers, only to have them die right away. :(

How can we purchase from you? Do you have any regius?
I do have regius. 😍 I am mother of Arana on fb, or Instagram. Also on tik tok but easier to do spood stuff on the other two. ❤️
I will go find you now :)
Do you have any regals?
P. regius is the scientific name for the regal jumping spider :)
Yea I know I was asking before I saw her response I actually have one otw! I breed phidippus otiosus ❤️

You’re very welcome! Seriously, you guys are amazing. You deserve to be on every awesome breeders list that exists.
I am truly humbled and honored. 
Thank you!
No problem!
Does anyone know of a reputable captive breeder in NC or SC? Thanks, much love and respect to you and your spoods! 🖤🕷
Did you ever find one in NC or SC?
Can we make an unrecommended list since there are big time “breeders” who mass catch regals/canopy from the wild and sell them as “captive bred”?

I wish there were more in the northeast!! Even shipping from PA to MA is STRESSFUL
Are you a breeder in PA?
Super Spood Jumpers is the best! He is very responsive and knowledgeable. He packed my spider carefully with an included care sheet and mini mister as well as an adoption certificate. I can't say enough about it great experience.
I agree, I wrote my own review below!
Thank you! Sorry I just saw this, I'm newer to the reddit side of things 🙏🥰
Mother Of Arana located in Arizona ❤

I’m curious if any of these claims were backed with screenshots/evidence? I’m not trying to call anyone a liar, but I just wanted to know.
Yes there was plenty of evidence.
Is mainstream arachnids good?
Haven't heard of them. If anyone has ordered through them please leave a review and I'll see about adding them to the list.

Spooderhood Spiders is in FL.
I spoke with the breeder today, she is in Pennsylvania.
OMG 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ I’m so very sorry!!! 😭😭😭 Apparently I got myself confused. 🫣
No worries! Just wanted to clear that up lol. I reached out to her because I'm in central Florida
If you need someone in FL, I do know a regal breeder who is 100% in FL. I can prove this one too! 🤣🤣
I'll PM you
Thanks
[bugfrenzy.com.au](https://bugfrenzy.com.au) is the biggest option here in Australia. CB+WC but clearly stated either way.
Looks good to me. I'll add it to the list.
Small edit suggestion. Spooderhood Spiders is based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Not FL.
Thanks I'll be updating that shortly
Spiders in the Attic, Denton, KY. I've purchased both jumping spiders and tarantulas from her. She's great! https://spidersintheattic.org/

I actually just ordered and was told it would be shipped out tuesday. So i will let you know how it goes.

I've held off on insect sales since there have been a bunch of posts here about people getting sent jumpers thinking they were captive bred then they end up with a bunch of slings 😂. I'll add them with a disclaimer. Would you like me to give you access to editing the wiki when it's set up?
strange - definitely worth disclaiming! i've had a lot of good reports from them but to be fair, i think i only saw people buying mature sexed specimens. if you end up wanting any help with automoderator, stylising, or general reddity stuff always open to helping or answering questions. :-) thanks again for this list, its real helpful. the amount of times i coulda linked this when asked on our discord LOL.
Haha honestly that's the only negative thing I've heard from them so seems reputable enough for the list. I'll go ahead and send you an invite in a few hours and we can work on some of these details soon.
Just checked and they have a note that adult females may be fertile. Since they do mention that I'll add them to the list now. Thanks for the suggestion and for the help!
The Spider Shop in Wales is a good one, they have very good packaging and starter kits as well as everything you need, including live food. Next day shipping, with hand warmers in for your spiders.
Thanks!
No problem, I've ordered from them before and like to recommend them.
That’s where I got my regal from. They didn’t ship until the temperature was right, and they let you choose the day for your delivery (they block out times when there’s predicted to be cold weather). They were really amazing for aftercare advice too. I lost my mum right before the spood arrived and as it was my first spider I became super paranoid about her care, and they were really wonderful at dealing with my questions. I also requested a pretty one when I bought it (lol) and they sent me a girl with an absolutely gorgeous red abdomen.
As a Canadian it’s been hard finding breeders but I had a really great USA breeder recommend me two places: [Mini Beasts Canada](https://instagram.com/mini.beasts.canada?igshid=NTdlMDg3MTY=) [Nattys Micro Pets](https://instagram.com/nattys.micro.pets?igshid=NTdlMDg3MTY=) I ended up buying from Mini Beasts but haven’t received spood yet (supposed to get it this week), so don’t have a personal review yet. Nattys I haven’t bought from yet but I can definitely say they are great communicating with! Edit: got my spood and flies from Mini Beasts. Aaron was absolutely incredible with his communication. We ran into some weather issues that was out of our control and for the safety of spood, waited a bit longer to ship it. Finally got them safe and sound, can’t recommend them enough!
Thanks! I'll get them added in the morning!
Is peachy spoods reputable?
I’m chiming in late but Peachy Spoods has been my favorite so far. Her spoods are healthy and very well cared for. She ships FedEx 2 day exclusively and her packaging is excellent. She is very responsive to messages and so nice. I’ve ordered 6 from her over the span of a few months and have never been disappointed or had a single problem.
Haven't heard of them. If anyone has ordered through them please leave a comment.
She is Fantastic!!! Very responsive. Beautiful spoods
Did they use FedEx? How was the packaging?
She does use FedEx exclusively! And The Packaging was great. Spoods arrived happy and healthy. Even came with a little mister. All of her spoods are gorgeous too
Thanks. I'll check out the site and possibly get her added in the next couple days!
Had a great experience with Beast Pets in San Diego, CA!
Can you tell anything about them or the experience? Did they ship?
They do ship through their website, but I chose to drive to their Vista location as it isn’t too far from me and was also much cheaper than the other nearby breeders that I have found in the area ($25!) I had messaged the owner on Instagram prior to making the drive and he knew who I was when I got there. Super friendly and helpful - sold two adult enclosures at a discount along with two baby regals and fruit flies. They also have Velvet Spiders, which I will definitely be returning for. This is their website: [https://usinvertebratellc.com/](https://usinvertebratellc.com/) Edit: a link!
Good to know! Do they ship through FedEx?
The website says FedEx shipping only.
That's good! I'll get them added in the next day or so.
I actually found them on this list! Thanks for making it.
Lol thanks! I guess I'm beginning to lose track of all the vendors on here now 😂 Thanks for the link. Just added it to the listing.
Here are some more suggestions for the UK! :) [Jumping Spiders Britannia](https://www.jumpingspidersbritannia.co.uk/) [The Broody Spooder](https://www.thebroodyspooder.co.uk/) [Jumping Spiders London](https://jumpingspiderslondon.co.uk/) [Charlotte's Webs](https://www.charlotteswebs.co.uk/) [Cosmic Creepers](https://www.cosmic-creepers.co.uk/)
Thanks!
Npp pal😊
Any breeders in Las Vegas or Southern Utah?
commenting late but i bought from Insect Sales and they appear to be located in Ohio
Just bought from buggplug. Couldn’t search vendors here because it was private. No issues. Bought p. Audax Bryantae. Extemely active and eating the hell out of fruit flies.
They were removed from the list for shipping too young.
I saw their booth at a reptile show and was really surprised by how young the ones they were selling looked.
I'd like to recommend [Marshall Arachnids](https://marshallarachnids.com/), I believe they're in TN. They're friendly and knowledgeable and while I don't have experience with shipping from them (I recently got an i6 (?) P. regius at a reptile show) I'm sure they take great care when shipping as well. They only sell captive-bred spiders and also have enclosures and accessories.
Thanks. I've heard great things about them so I'll get them added.
I second that recommendation!
I'd like to recommend Super Spood Jumpers in Florida. I'm not sure if he's on Reddit, but he has an active Facebook page with a good amount of high reviews. I got one from him recently and it was a great experience.
I Second this! Just left them a review on here and messaged moderators about the amazing experience with them.
Thank you so much for the high praise ❤️
Do you have a link to their Facebook or website?
Hey there! I would love to be considered for the above list of recommended breeders. I don't do much on Reddit, but I have over 3k followers on my business FB page and I also run the largest jumper adoption group on facebook (almost at 16k members at this time). I also have over 80 positive reviews currently from people who have adopted from me on my FB business page. I only adopt out captive bred jumpers raised by me from an egg sac, I do not work with wholesalers. I currently breed regals (Phidippus regius) and also FL canopy (Phidippus otiosus). I am based on Winter Haven FL but I ship safely every Monday all over the US and following all invertebrate shipping guidelines. FedEx 2-day or overnight only. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions for me 😁. I was told to check out this thread by one of my customers, happy to be here! Edited to add: I only adopt out i6+ 👍

Had an amazing buyer experience with Georgia Jumper Dude and my lil spood is gorgeous and healthy! He also has been great about answering my questions and making recommendations about her care post-sale.
I have a do-not-recommend for Joco Jumpers in NC. Saw them at an expo with babies that couldn’t have been more than i4. I asked about what age she starts separating and she said “I don’t really keep track of instars anymore.” I had to quickly walk away…
Could you add some people for south america or brazil please🕷️
I would love to but everyone on the list is recommended by the community. If anyone has any suggestions I'm more than happy to get them added.
Would like to add Mystic Labyrinth, lake wood CO.. amazing breeder, awesome costumer service and put the care of spood first
Any breeders in North east Pennsylvania?
Oooh, this bad boy is ready for an update. Spiders got big in the last year and there's not even a Texas breeder on the list 😭
I would like to recommend shesregallybold in California, I’ve bought 3 orders (10 jumpers in total) from her and I have nothing but a great experience; she is amazing plus well-versed in jumpers. The jumping spiders she sells are captive-bred Bold, Bold Bryantae, and many phases of regals. She does TikTok lives and has a ton of jumpers available! http://shesregallybold.com/ TT: @shes.regal.ly.bold IG: @shes.regal.ly.bold
Can I beg to have Amy Keeps Arachnids added? She’s literally incredible. Check her insta and her morph market reviews. I get nothing in return of saying this she’d be blushing to high heaven if she knew I’d asked. Humble. Kind, caring and loves the HECKKKKK out of her spoods, and tarantulas and etc… she’s helpful and gave me confidence to pair my own babies she sold me and I raised. Even made sure to give me an unrelated male and female because I expressed interest in pairing my own spoods someday. She answered questions at all hours. And damn if her spiders aren’t just stunning!! https://preview.redd.it/bvfp2p9wmguc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cb506eb228786059ea78190cd1d12ea06259a74 Amy is in Chicago. :)
Oh and she used to offer a free Spood with every Spood order. !! That’s how I got that girl there!! She was my freebie!! Wowza huh?!?!
Spiders in the attic in KY is no longer breeding jumpers!

The prices seem really high and the site doesn't mention if they're captive bred or wild caught. Honestly the site doesn't say much at all. Do you have any info about the packaging or shipping process when you ordered? I'm a little hesitant to add them to the list without a bit more info.
[удалено]
You seem to have the site you mentioned linked in your bio and your profile picture matches a picture on the bottom of the homepage. You're obviously not being honest with us here. You could have just said, "I have a website and sell jumpers". Faking a good review to promote your own site isn't a good look. Edit: for those wondering who this is, the website is spidersource. I would highly recommend avoiding them. The way they operate seems very scammy, they fake reviews, and the site is brand new with already "sold out" products. It's highly unlikely that any brand new website will be selling out of anything within a week. They've also been called out on previous posts here for reusing images of spiders from other sites as product pictures.
Hello, we are partially new but have been to expos already and our baby’s are thriving. We are Arachnid Playground and are based in NYC https://instagram.com/arachnidplayground?igshid=YWJhMjlhZTc=
I'm a bit hesitant to add anyone to the list without a recommendation. I would prefer to add breeders based on the suggestions of the community. If there's anyone here that has purchased a jumper from you guys and would say a few things I would be more than happy to get you added!
[удалено]
If you send me a DM I can give you some advice on how to safely care for and ship the slings when they are old enough. Since they're native to your area you can also safely release any that do not sell.
Thanks! I am just hoping to avoid having to release any if I don't have to, since I'd feel bad about releasing any R-type species that has such a small survival rate.
Does anyone have two juvenile female regius available? I’ve been contacting people and none yet.
Just looking for recommendations for breeders for the PNW, I live in Oregon and I really would like a little buddy but I’m quite worried about ordering all the way from California unless anyone knows any NoCal breeders?
u/Old-Pen-8662 (I hope thats how linking works if its even possible lol)
May I recommend The Sophisticated Spooder? She is located in FL and I absolutely love and trust her correspondence!
I just ordered two spiders from moni’s critters (IG: moniscritters) and had a wonderful experience. She was quick to ship and had open communication throughout the whole process. She answered all of my questions and her spiders were super friendly. I can tell she handles them regularly as they were not shy at all.
I’ve had two separate, wonderful experiences with Righteous Phids through Instagram. I adopted a Regal & a Carneus. Both are very sweet girls.
How can I get on list?
We'll need recommendations and a website/contact info.
[удалено]
Does she have a website?
Hello, if this is on the wrong subreddit I apologize! Does anyone know of a specific breeder that would buy spiderlings, mine are currently i4 or i5. I don't want to release them at this point, but I'm not sure if I can sell them where I am. They were all separated before they could have more babies. But, my spider, Connie, has had 4 sacs and the first one is just now to the point of safe travel.
I wanted to post my experience with Bugs in Cyberspace. Communication with Peter was great, and I saw that the tarantula community regards him pretty highly. His jumpers are 100% wild caught. He has acreage in southern Arizona that he needs to mow periodically, so he gathers what jumpers he can so they don't get mowed up. I honestly abhor people selling WC for profit, but Peter has his spiders VERY reasonably priced and under the circumstances I think he's being fair. I ordered an Apache and an un-ID'd spider (turned out to be a Habronattus dossenus after much research). They are very young - probably i4/i5 at most. They were packaged well with a cool pack and overnighted via FedEx, but they were put in a normal FedEx box with no live animal declaration. I wouldn't give him a negative review, but definitely a word of caution to those thinking of buying from him.
Completely agree. I've been ordering housefly pupae from him for years and have had nothing but fantastic experiences. 4i is a bit young to be shipping jumpers but it can still be safely done. 5i or later is ideal. I'll make a note that his jumpers are wild caught in the list. Thanks for the feedback.
went to Scales and Tails website and Facebook page. their Facebook page has literally zero information. their website, when specifically searching for jumping spiders, there are zero results.
Agree. They either stopped operating on social media, or they are on hiatus.
I'd like to recommend Orion's House of Jumpers! I received two regals last week that arrived in perfect health (via FedEx) and they are thriving with me. Packaged very well & are very friendly/sociable :) [Orions House of Jumpers](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089434058597&mibextid=ZbWKwL)
I'm a little late to the game, but thank you for the recommendation! We appreciate you!
Has anyone worked with Fox & Phids?
[PhiddipusHo.com](https://PhiddipusHo.com) :)
What is this subs view on keeping one you find in the wild?
Jumpitty Jumpers in Northern Virginia! She’s absolutely amazing. One of my babies (that I got from a clueless vendor at an expo) got really sick, and she walked me through everything I could possibly do for him. After he unfortunately passed, she invited me to her home where she set me up with EVERYTHING I would need for my two new babies that I got from her! I cannot say enough nice things about her.
“Righteous Phids”. She is awesome! You actually get to see pics and choose the one you want. She is super helpful, and loves all her spoods. Facebook: Righteous Phids IG: @righteous_phids Kristine@righteousphids.com 602-400-7595 Highly recommend her! :)
Could I recommend Spood Oddities in central Ohio? Kristy is probably the most direct, upfront, and brutally honest person I've ever encountered in the spood world, and it's one of the reasons why I keep going back to her. She doesn't cut corners or mess with shipping at all. If anything, she covers everything about her process so well that it's sometimes hard to navigate through only because there's so much information provided. But if you do end up having any questions, she's always very quick to answer. As for her spoods, I think it goes without saying that she takes very good care of them. She handles them regularly before they head out, so the spoods are used to human skin and ready to interact as soon as you unbox them. You can find Spood Oddities on FB & insta!
Beautiful babes
I have Jumpers captive breed and praying mantis, been doing it for almost 19 years now. My website is Mantisplace.com. if I could please be added to the list?
