  • Pseudhapalopus spinulopalpus

    Hi Guys!

    I am set to receive one of these little guys in the mail on Tuesday. They are still fairly rare in the US as if information on how to care for them. I have small anti-dotal info but if anyone here has some good care/set up info I would be grateful. I want to get her house ready today. This is a 2" female and here are some of the things I would love some info on.

    Temprament
    Humdity
    Temperature
    Do they burrow?

    I currently keep about 85 spiders and have many Theraphosa/Aphonopelma/Poecilotheria and more but wanted to try this when I feel in love with her pic.

    Thank you for your help!

    Hello

    >This is a 2" female and here are some of the things I would love some info on.

    >Temprament

    My ones were pretty docile then again all i did was feed mine. They are extremely slow growing so a 2" female is probably around 5 years old

    >Humidity

    I gave mine a drier period every few months
    > Temperature

    Around 22 - 26 i did not bother heating mine ie: they were kept in containers in a room which had subsiduary heating from heated cabinets

    >Do they burrow?

    Mine never but then again i did not give them to much dirt to burrow in, the slings did but they only had 2 cm and they were around 5mm so plent deep for them

    Not really much to say on these they are a pretty average spider to keep with no extra/different requirements apart from patience when rearing them from slings.
