This species, often called the Pucallpa Pink Toe, is a lesser-known member of the Avicularia genus, native to the tropical rainforests of Peru. Its vivid coloration includes shades of dark blue or purple, contrasting with a pinkish tinge on its feet.
Behavior and Temperament: Known for being docile, this arboreal tarantula rarely displays aggression, making it a good choice for intermediate keepers. When threatened, it may jump or rapidly retreat rather than attack.
Habitat and Environment Needs: Avicularia sp. Pucallpa thrives in high humidity and warm temperatures. A well-ventilated enclosure with plenty of vertical space for climbing is ideal, mimicking the canopy layers of its native rainforest.
Feeding: This tarantula feeds primarily on a variety of insects, such as crickets, roaches, and occasional mealworms. Younger specimens may require smaller prey more frequently.
Additional Information: One unique feature of this species is its strong jumping ability, which helps it navigate through the trees in its natural habitat.
