ORIGIN: Namibia, Zimbabwe
AMBIENT VALUES: temperature 27 ° -28 ° C daytime, 20-23 ° C nighttime humidity 65-70%
FEEDING: small insects for spiderlings (they prefer drosophile) and, from size M, feeding insects (crickets, cockroaches, worms, locusts) of adequate size are good. Medium sized isopods, quite voracious. In particular, crickets and locusts are indicated as they are highly protein. Requires weekly calcium supplements (in water or through the food offered), to encourage the formation of its exoskeleton during the moulting process
RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT: medium-sized terrarium or faunabox, 30x30x30; for spiderlings it is perfectly fine to insert them in the classic specific containers until they reach an adequate size to be then moved to a terrarium, always of small dimensions.
The substrate should be at least 10-15 cm high peat and / or coconut fiber, together with tropical plants, a bowl with water or hydrogel always present and a natural or artificial refuge where it will burrow during the day or to consume prey. Very light sprays are required every 2 days, as the substrate must still be dry but not excessively, creating different humidity areas
