Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens

Description

C. Cyaneopubescens have a fantastic colouration, starting off golden with a striped black and orange rump as spiderlings and slowly losing their stripes and turning blue-legged and green-carapaced. This stark colour makes them an extremely sought after species that many enthusiasts want for their collection if they haven't already.

Housing

In the wild, C. Cyaneopubescens live under and around bushes and scrubs in Venezuala. Therefore, in captivity they need many branches and rocks sticking out of the ground to anchor their fantastic webs too. As always with Tarantulas, a waterbowl is needed as a permanent drinking source.
