There are five, one is bowling around like it owns the place and the others are standing around like they are at a party where they dont know anyone. Im besotted already. Will take some decent pics when they have settled in.

Thanks Martin i hope Bandit gets through it safely. He is a lot bigger than his brother who i gave away last year and a bit skittish, Pirate would never run away but Bandit is a bit nifty so hope that goes in his favour, the pic dont do him justice but he is by far the biggest genic ive ever seen.
The H Inceis are great fun. I cant see me going to work tomorrow when im engrossed in watching them settle in :)

Haha well said,I hope all goes well. If the person who's breeding him knows his stuff,all should go just fine. Unforseen things do occur, but I'm always optimistic. You will see those H.incei web,looks really nice. Had to add just fed my Poecilotheria Regalis communal,and it was awesome yet again.

How big are the p. regalis Martin? I bet they are amazing ! Did you breed them yourself ? Im feeling quite confident about Bandit as i say hes big and a bit skittish so hope he will look after himself. Just sad i wont see him again and it was a shock as i was convinced he was female i never get his moults off him in one piece.
Going to look at Taras new babies now :)

Hello
No received the P.Regalis as a communal,so far one mature male and female others unsexed. A sure great sight to see,they they hunt without bothering each other. As for your male,again hope all goes well always better to have a strong big male the smaller ones usually fail.

How many are there altogether? Im looking forward to feeding my new ones :) Yes i thought Pirate was big until Bandit matured but he is huge and quite chunky. Im sure they will look after him and he will look after himself, hes not stupid.

They are 6 in total,not as glamorous as others communal setups sure it will grow in time.

H.incei is a great starter communal species. :)
I have seen a few reports of communals going south though, so if you happen to see any feeding on each other, maybe it's time to separate them.

I'm keeping an eye on them. One of them struts around looking pleased with itself but no problems so far :) The others have made burrows and the other one just goes round poking his nose in everyone else's business. They are so cool.
