Tliltocatl albopilosus (Curlyhair Tarantula)

👀👀 This docile poodle of the tarantula world is a perfect example of a beginner species. This prolific digger, you may affectionately refer to as an excavator, will steal your heart while filling it’s water dish with substrate and creating awesome tunnels to hide while awaiting food. 👌👌 Remember this species is going to appreciate plenty of substrate to burrow and dig along with a nice hide and a water dish in the corner to keep the rest of the enclosure fairly dry. They are quite content and not very reactive, and rarely might flick hairs at you if agitated. It’s most fun to watch them rearrange their living quarters as they quickly grow to a burly, medium size tarantula with awesome “curly” hairs. 🕷️🕷️

 The gentle, docile disposition of this species makes it a favorite. It is also very hardy, easy to care for, and is sought after as a good choice for beginner to advance collectors alike. This heavy-bodied tarantula is covered with tan and golden curly hairs, giving it a charming unkempt look. The “curly hair”, as it is affectionately known, is one of the more active tarantulas, making it interesting to watch as it goes about arranging its home. Many keepers note that this species seem to have more “personality” than many others do.
