Acanthoscurria juruenicola is a terrestrial tarantula native to South Africa. I preferred to write the name in English because the translation into Romanian seems too long and stupid (orange striped Tarantula from Brazil). For this tarantula requires a terrarium of at least 15-20 liters. For the purchase of a copy or a pair the prices vary quite a lot, from 7 to 300 euros.
Feeding Acanthoscurria juruenicola
Tarantulas usually eat insects such as crickets, cockroaches, moths, worms and cockroaches. In terrariums it can have a continuous diet of crickets and of course water. An adult insect is usually recommended twice a week. Uneaten prey should be removed after a day because it attracts mites. If you decide to purchase a tarantula, remember that the food provided should not be larger than the animal's abdomen.Features of Acanthoscurria juruenicola
It is brownish in color with orange stripes on each limb. Experienced breeders can grow this species of tarantula relatively quickly if it is well cared for. Adult males are animals with a beautiful presence appreciated by many. Handling is not recommended because they are quite large animals and have a somewhat grumpy behavior if they are not allowed to mind their own business. They are considered defensive. They can reach lengths of 17-88mm.
Reproduction Acanthoscurria juruenicola
Reproduction of tarantulas is a difficult thing but also something that really gives you satisfaction. At a successful mating can lay between 50 and 2000 eggs depending on the size and species of the female.
