Hello all! I made a post earlier today but I found another REALLY cool and unexpected find! I wonder if anyone here knows what kind of camel spider this is? The last one I found was said to be very hard to care for and I wonder if this is any different? He’s definitely bigger than the last one at about 1/2”

As soon as I got my fire started he was heading right for it haha. I bet it’s starting to get cold for them here. I only suspect to find them in my home desert town of Phoenix!

MORE TO COME! THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Man, so jealous of the Solifigid, love those. My dream to keep one.
I hope you find one! I found what someone called dwarf species on dusty dry desert Phoenix and I found this slightly bigger one in the Dewey cold wet Prescott forest just an hour and half away. They MUST be much more versatile than I expected.
