Species Caribena versicolor (a.k.a. Avicularia versicolor)

[miss moxie]

You don't need to feed live prey, so you can cut oversized prey in half and give it to them.

I give some of my other slings prekilled crickets. I probably will with these guys too.

Avics can be absolute beasts when tackling prey. I’ve seen my A. avicularia jump to tackle a large roach, and fell to the bottom wrestling it.

Awesome picture!

This is my 3/4”
Grammostola pulchripes taking down a dubia almost as same size as him or her if not any bigger.

Thats pretty cool. I pulled the head off a large cricket and gsve it to my g pulchripes sling. It jumped right on it but it kept kicking him/her off. After getting kicked off over and over it actually gave the headless cricket a threat display for about 5 min before it stopped. First time a tarantula made me laugh

This is in her new enclosure after the latest molt and I caught her outside the web for once.





It's a great species to keep & gets more awesome looking with each molt.
