Common Name: White Striped Birdeater
Scientific Name: Nhandu coloratovillosus

Status : Captive Bred

Country of origin - Brazil, Paraguay
Habitat: Ground dwelling
Suitability:  Very pretty but can be a little skittish

My Opinion:
A large, stocky tarantula, most attractive and easy to keep but can be rather defensive, readily kicks off urticating hairs and can be aggressive when threatened.

It is difficult to give a size for the spiders as stock is constantly changing. Generally, the small size is a spiderling up to 1.5cm body length (small will be SMALL), juvenile is a grown on spiderling with a body length of about 1.5cm, medium 2cm to 4cm and a large is 4cm to fully adult (but a lot depends on the species!)

If you would like me to measure the body length of any medium or large spider, please send me an email. I cannot measure the body length of small and juvenile size spiders as they are constantly changing.

All spiders are unsexed unless stated.
