Avicularia sp. Boa Vista is an informally identified pinktoe tarantula associated with Boa Vista, Brazil. It is popular among keepers for its striking coloration and arboreal lifestyle.
Behavior and Temperament:Generally considered docile, but it can be quick moving and may jump or flee when startled. It may also flick feces defensively. Avoid handling.
Habitat and Environment Needs:Provide a tall, well ventilated arboreal enclosure with vertical cork bark, branches and foliage for webbing and retreat construction. Maintain access to fresh water and avoid stagnant, overly damp conditions.
Feeding: Feed appropriately sized live insects, including crickets and roaches. Adjust prey size to the tarantula and remove uneaten food.
Additional Information: Avicularia sp. Boa Vista is a hobby trade name rather than a formally confirmed scientific species. Excellent cross-ventilation is particularly important for pinktoe tarantulas.
