These Baboon Tarantulas have blazed their own trail through the hobby with their screaming coloration and vanquish all in the way attitude. These orange balls of hate stem from the Usambara Mountains in Tanzania, and are smaller than the Mozambique Golden Starburst, but that fireball coloration is what really sets them apart. 5″ and sturdy, these are as hateful in the tree tops as they are at the tree roots. I’m emphasizing how angry they are to ensure no Goober or Goobette tries to pick them up and wonders why it failed so miserably. They do fine in temps of 72-82 and low humidity of 50%. Orange Bitey Thing is merely another fitting moniker. This batch was produced here at Krazy 8’s.
