Native to the Brazilian rainforest, this is one of the most famous and classic pet tarantula species.
As members of the genus Lasiodora, they are of course also enormous "giants," with adults easily reaching 20 cm in size. In terms of growth rate, they are considerably faster than some other terrestrial tarantula species, growing from 1 cm grayish-white spiderlings to over 6 cm with some color in just about half a year.

Purchase instructions:
Brazilian Salmon Pink Birdeaters are relatively timid. The turbulence during packaging and transit, as well as environmental changes, can easily stress them. Their way of protecting themselves is to kick off the bristles on their abdomen, so you might receive one with a slightly bald abdomen.
You don't need to worry at all; this is a normal stress response, not an injury or illness. Once it adapts to its new environment and molts, new bristles will grow back, and it will not affect future viewing or keeping at all.
If you are particularly concerned about a bald abdomen upon arrival, we recommend not placing an order.
