Chile Beautiful Tarantula (Euathlus Truculentus)

 These lovely spiders are so much fun to handle and very docile. they even take food from my fingers and tweezers, never seem to turn down food, pouncing on it at speed, these colourful spiders have a metallic green carapace and femurs, the abdomen is covered in fluffy pink hair, and red hair on the front of the abdomen. Common in Chile, can be found under rocks and living in walls, so I have made some slate homes for my spiders.
