The Colombian Tricolor (Pseudohapalopus sp. Colombia)

A Rare, Adorable, and Long-Lived Dwarf Tarantula

The Columbian Tricolor (Pseudohapalopus sp. Columbia) is an adorable and docile dwarf tarantula native to Colombia, highly sought after for its stunning blue, yellow and orange iridescent coloration, compact size, and extremely relaxed personality. Reaching only 3 inches in diagonal leg span (DLS), The Columbian Tricolor is tiny yet mighty! Unlike most dwarf tarantulas, which tend to be shy and reclusive, Psuedohapalopus sp. Colombia is remarkably confident-even strolling out onto your hand the moment you open its enclosure! Additionally many dwarf species (like the Pumpkin Patch) only live around 12+ years, However the Columbian Tricolor can live well over 20+ years! Psuedohapalopus sp. Columbia starts out at less than 1/10th of an inch and can take 5-7 years to fully develop its iconic triunal coloration. As a result, raising slings requires a ton of patience, purchasing a 2+ inch female guarantees you’ll save nearly a decade of time while still giving you at least 15+ years with your adorable, Tri-colored tarantula! Being hardy, Psuedohapalopus sp. Columbia can tolerate an extremely dry environment and can go well over a month without a meal! Consequently, their minimal care requirements make this species ideal for all levels of keepers. Its gentle and relaxed demeanor makes it ideal for handling.
