I keep them with deep substrate on the moist side.There burrowers but in the wild they can be found living under stones and bark or even under old metal scrap I guess.I house them the same as Haplopelma pretty much.

Yea Chris, I like this one becuase I can actually tell it apart from the other ones haha. Although I must omit, calling it a "blue leg" or "blue femur" is a bit of a strech. With out the flash of the camera its just another brown spider.

Later, Tom
