Holothele shoemakeri

Just got in yesterday (thank you, Jake!). Fiesty little one. When I offered it a couple of crickets, it tackled one and ended up on its back under some moss. I'm not sure if it was a threat pose or what, but it held the position for about 5 minutes.

~2" female Holothele shoemakeri

that'd be Holothele sp. "columbia" i believe, at least that's what it's labelled as on Martin's website, though i could very well be mistaken

Weither you are talking about H. incei or the undescribed species from Colombia, they are both hardy and easy to care for. Although I had one Colombian one attempting to bite me, compared to H. incei that it never happened. You will find H. incei a lot more easily.

The one that look a little like H. incei are about 4" or so, I have 5 females of that size, I think it might be their full grown size as some molted not too long ago and did not get much more size.

The Norte de Santander one gets really big and pretty massive, I was surprised when I have seen adult females, I thought mine were full grown, but they still have a lot to do! They can reach at least 5 to 6" legspan, hardly a dwarf species for sure.

This boy matured the other day... I have a female ready for him as soon as he starts making webs.
