Found right next to a river in Costa Rica.
UPDATE: I believe this to be Aphonopelma crinirufum (Costa Rican Bluefront Tarantula) but I am not 100% sure.
So ... using a nestcam to spy on my T is one of my better decisions as a novice keeper. She finally opened a small entrance to her hide the other day and started peeking out. This morning she was halfway out so I dropped in a cricket but she ducked back into her hide and the cricket vanished...
@Mister Sunshine
Where do you found it? More on the atlantic side in the north?
@8 legged
I dont think so.
Most of the crinirufum (and burica too) in the hobby differs clearly from crinirufum (sensu Valerio; see HERE)
Further the carapace is not so broad and rounded like on the Theraphosinae on the picture above.
