This tarantula is quite a delight. It is a very good choice for a display tarantula because it stays out in the open most of the time and displays a stunning shimmering burgundy carapace. The scrofa tends to be a very tolerant tarantula and is somewhat active. They are not prone to bolt or be aggressive.
