These are quite the day at the park. I say that respectfully and with much know-how; playing catch with each other. These are among the most striking of the New World tarantulas with the deep, rich black and the leg striping almost yellow.  They are also the most defensive (striking) of the New World tarantulas, and with them there is never a dry bite. So don’t do it! They are however easy to keep, with needs of 75-84 and humidity of 75%. Sure, they have urticating hairs on their pedipalps, but never are they used.
