Calisoga False Tarantula

Description

Calisoga is a genus of spiders in the family Nemesiidae. They are called False Tarantulas because they are very large spiders and are in the infraorder mygalomorphae (like tarantulas and trapdoor spiders, etc.)

Available specimens for this listing are small, at around one inch in legspan. Mature spiders grow to 3 to 4 inches.

We feed them house flies, or small roaches like red runners but similarly sized prey like crickets, etc. work just fine.

The habitat kit we offer in the related products section below is a suitable home for a younger one like the one offered in this listing.
