Common Name: Mexican Red Rump Tarantula
Scientific Name: Tliltocatl vagans  (Formally Brachypelma)

Status : Captive Bred

Country of origin - Mexico
Habitat: Ground dwelling
Suitability: Docile, large and attractive

My Opinion:
The Mexican Red Rump is one of the 'old favourites' they have been in the pet trade even longer than me and are a good beginners spider. Generally docile, their colours are lovely (especially just after moulting), they sit out in full view and live for many years.

It is difficult to give a size for the spiders as stock is constantly changing. Generally, the small size is a spiderling up to 1cm body length (small will be SMALL), juvenile is a grown on spiderling with a body length of 1cm to 2cm, medium 2cm to 4cm and a large is 4cm to fully adult (but a lot depends on the species!)

I am happy to send a photo of any size tarantula spider that you are interested in, just email me!

All spiders are unsexed unless stated.
