Iridopelma hirsutum / recife (Amazon Ribbed Tarantula)

This is a fuzzy, colorful arboreal tarantula that, as spiderlings, sport shades of green, red, and blue. Our Iridopelmas are just plain mean and always offer up a threat posture when we feed them. This species is not readily available so if you have your eye on adding one to your collection, grab it when you see it offered.
