Why do hobbyists keep Theraphosinae sp. "Mandarin"?

  • Stunning Coloration: A warm orange coloration with a soft blush overlay, giving it the "Mandarin" name.
  • Docile Temperament: Calm and manageable, an approachable species for keepers of any experience level.
  • Rare in the Hobby: A lesser known Peruvian terrestrial that most keepers haven't encountered.

How should Theraphosinae sp. "Mandarin" be kept?

  • Adult Size: Reaches about 4 to 5 inches at full leg span.
  • Enclosure: Choose an enclosure at least twice the leg span in width, depth, and height, with a hide included for security.
  • Temperature: Keep between 65 to 75 degrees F.
  • Humidity: Keep the substrate damp but not saturated, resembling the texture and color of coffee grounds. Organic coconut fiber works well since it resists mold and holds humidity steadily.
  • Water: A shallow textured water dish works well, something they can grip when climbing out.
  • 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: Docile and manageable, a comfortable species to keep and observe.

Are there any additional notes or considerations?

  • Understated Beauty: The soft blush overlay on the orange base is subtle in photos but shows up nicely in person.
  • Captive Bred: All Tarantulas are 100% captive bred.
