Poecilotheria rufilata (Red Slate Ornamental Tarantula) for sale
One of the most gorgeous species of "Pokies" in the hobby, the P. rufilata has wowed keepers for decades.
It sports a gorgeous green and yellow coat, with red hairs, and its underside can have purple, blue, red, yellows and greens making this also one of the most colorful 'Pokies' in the hobby as well.
To top it all off, this species has been reported to reach up to 10" in legspan, making it allegedly the largest arboreal tarantula. While it is hard to say if this species will in fact reach this goliath size, you can definitely expect a max size of about 9 inches!!
This species can be kept communally only if they were never separated!
COMMUNALS ONLY WORK WITH SLINGS THAT WERE NEVER SEPERATED. DO NOT COMBINE SEPERATED SLINGS OF THIS SPECIES (even if only for 1 day)
Grab this amazing species while they last!
Names & Classifications
How we ship live animals:
We ship all live animals using ONLY FedEx Overnight shipping, since it is the fastest and safest way to ship your new pets.
We ship on Tuesdays (for Wednesday arrival) and Wednesdays (for Thursday arrival) and plan shipments on Mondays.
Please make sure to select a FedEx Overnight option at checkout - for "Facility Pickup" or "Home Delivery"!
If your package is over $400 or contains rare/expensive animals we may require you to pick up at your local facility.
**Please remember that "Overnight Shipping" only means that your animal will spend overnight in the box; it does not mean your package shipps immediately and will arrive the next day! **
How we measure invertebrates:
We measure tarantulas and spiders in diagonal legspan. This means the distance from the front right to back left leg (or vise versa) when the animal is stretched out.
Cenitpedes we measure the full length of the animal from the antennae to the back legs
Scorpions we typically measure the body-length of the animal.
