Lifespan: Females up to 30 years. Males up to 7 years
House tarantulas separately and do not house different invertebrate species together
Nocturnal - Awake at night, sleep during the day
A particularly striking tarantula, the Mexican Red Knee has a dark brown body and legs, with orange-red leg joints. The ends of the legs can detect vibrations, smells and tastes, to help the tarantula locate prey and the opposite sex
A well-balanced tarantula diet consists of appropriately sized live insects, such as gut-loaded (recently fed) crickets, mealworms, superworms, roaches. Some species may eat frozen/thawed pinkie mice, thawed/warmed to room temperature.
