I know, I know! The abundance of  geographic specific Chilobrachys that is flooding the market must be as exciting yet frustrating to the hobbyist as it is to the dealer. (Ultimately, dealers are just glorified hobbyists, or the ones who truly love this thing are anyway) But, at least we get the geography! What you do get with the sp Kaeng Krachan is a sleek smoke grey tarantula with a golden carapace. They remind me of C. fimbriatus, but much darker, obviously lacking the abdominal pinstripes, and larger overall. This species will bite readily, so if you’re a moron, well, good luck with that. They can be kept like most Chilobrachys, needing 75-82F with humidity to match and the ability to burrow.
