Stromatopelma calceatum



Scientific name : Stromatopelma calceata griseipes
Common name : Feather leg baboon
Origin : West Africa
Temperament : Angry little buggers
Maximum size: A little over 7 inches legspan

This species is relative new in the market. They are fast, very defensive and have a potent venom.
They are a fast growing tarantula . I got a 2inches sling early 2008 and it is about 5.5 inches legspan now. This species is meant for experienced keepers and I advice beginners not to even think of getting one.
