Why do hobbyists keep Xenesthis sp. 'White Lowland'?

How should Xenesthis sp. 'White Lowland' be kept?

• Adult Size: Reaches over 8 inches at full leg span.
• Enclosure: This species needs real room to roam, so plan for an enclosure at least twice the leg span in width, depth, and height, with a roomy hide included.
• Temperature: Keep between 65 to 75 degrees F, which also helps keep this species calmer and less likely to flick urticating hairs.
• Humidity: This species prefers higher humidity than many other new world terrestrials, reflecting its mountainous South American origin.
• 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: Not especially aggressive, but notorious for flicking urticating hairs when it feels disturbed, so a calm, cool setup goes a long way.

Are there any additional notes or considerations?

• Fast Grower: This species grows quickly for its size, making steady, visible progress between molts.
• Captive Bred: All Tarantulas are 100% captive bred.
