As the light dances across its exoskeleton, the vivid blue shimmers and gleams, creating a visual spectacle that's both enchanting and unforgettable.

Why do hobbyists keep Ornithoctoninae sp. "Phan Cay Blue"?

  • Stunning Coloration: Electric blue legs that shimmer and gleam under the right light, a defining feature that sets this species apart.
  • Large Size: A substantial arboreal species with real presence once fully grown.
  • Rare in the Hobby: Not readily available, and genuinely exciting whenever it is offered again.

How should Ornithoctoninae sp. "Phan Cay Blue" be kept?

  • Adult Size: Reaches about 7 inches at full leg span.
  • Enclosure: Choose an enclosure at least twice the leg span in width, depth, and height, with vertical cork bark for climbing and webbing.
  • Temperature: Keep between 65 to 75 degrees F.
  • Humidity: Keep the lower substrate slightly moist while allowing upper surfaces to dry between waterings. Good ventilation is critical.
  • Water: Provide a shallow water dish placed in an elevated position if possible. This is more natural for arboreal species and helps prevent crickets from falling in and drowning.
  • Diet: Crickets, roaches, or mealworms sized to about a quarter of the leg span, matching the width of the carapace (head). Feed at least once a week.
  • Temperament: Fast and defensive, it carries a medically significant bite typical of old world species, so this is a display only animal. We do not encourage or recommend handling with any of our tarantulas, old world species especially.

Are there any additional notes or considerations?

  • Confirm the True Blue Form: Multiple color forms exist under this locality name, so confirming the genuine blue form matters before adding one to a collection.
  • Captive Bred: All Tarantulas are 100% captive bred.
