Guatemalan Tiger Rump Tarantula - Davus pentaloris (Captive Bred)

Characteristics:
  1. Recently this species underwent a revision that separated it into 13 distinct species. As such, it is highly theorized that the specimens available in the hobby have been hybridized, therefore we are selling these babies as "Hobby" form.
  2. A beautiful dwarf species that makes eye catching web work, these would make a great desk pet due to their small stature and penchant for decorating.
  3. Though they come in a small package, this species grows fast and has an incredible feeding response, it won't take long for these little cuties to get to their adult size!

Size: Young D. pentaloris sold from Josh’s Frogs are approximately 1/2” diagonal leg span. Though this species is considered a dwarf species, they do get larger than most dwarf species. Females top out at around a 4" diagonal leg span, with males usually maturing between 2.5"-3"

Age: At least 2 months at time of sale. Females live an average of 10-12 years, with males averaging about 1/3 of that life span.

Coloration/Patterning: This species exhibits dult coloration pretty early on. Babies are dark gray/black with light carapaces and orange patterning on the abdomen. As adults, this changes to a velvety black color with bright, almost metallic copper carapaces and abdominal patterning, with some slightly duller copper striping on the legs.
