chilean rose tarantula

Written by scottology on February 15, 2010 – 8:11 pm -


The Chilean Rose Tarantula is one of the most commonly imported tarantulas in the trade today. This species of tarantula is a combination of being fairly large, hardy and docile. The Chilean Rose Tarantula can be found in almost any pet store, and can be found in two different color phases. One of the color phases of the Chilean Rose Tarantula is a tan to brown overall color with pink hairs and a pink carapace, while the other is a tarantula with red hairs all over it's body. These used to be classified under two different species, but they are now both known as Chilean Rose Tarantulas. There are many pet stores that carry Chilean Rose Tarantulas, although they may be under different names. The Chilean Rose Tarantula is the ultimate starter species, and should be considered for anybody who wants to dive into the hobby

    Point 1 – it’s not eww. They’re cool ^^ but whatever, opinions vary lol. But they rarely bite, only if you piss it off. Also, don’t make really quick movements whilst handling one, because they have really poor eyesight and hunt by sensing vibrations with the hairs on their legs.

    nah it only flicks hairs when irratatied but they dont hurt they just itch and this tarantula is the least likely to bite they wont just bite you unless you really piss it off

    do chilean rose T’s flick hair? Whats a good way to know if T’s are pissed? I know about the defense pose which is showing their fangs but do they do that all the time when they are threatened or are there times that they would just strike the hand? Sorry I got lots of questions. i wanna own a T thats why.

    a pity singapore regards tarantulas as exotic animals, so i’ll need to apply for some license costing $110 to rear one…..i love T’s…

    i wouldn’t annoy them anyway
    they are wild animals and need a little bit more respect than other pets
