Sold Out

Avicularia juruensis M2, also known as "Peru Purple Pink-Toe Tarantuka", is a medium-sized tarantula native to Peru and western Brazil, distinguished by its deep purple-blue iridescent sheen over a dark body, complemented by the classic pink-tipped tarsi characteristic of the Avicularia genus. The M2 designation refers to the second morphotype identified within this species complex.

This is an arboreal species that inhabits the tropical rainforest canopies throughout the western Amazon Basin, where it creates tubular silk retreats in tree hollows, between leaves, or in the axils of bromeliads. They thrive in areas with high humidity year-round and consistent warm temperatures, typically found several meters above ground level.

What's the ideal diet for a Peru Purple Pink-Toe Tarantula?

All Tarantulas can eat a variety of feeders. Stick to crickets, dubia roaches, silkworms, horned worms occasionally, and a superworm or mealworm as the occasional treat!

How should I keep a Peru Purple Pink-Toe Tarantula?

For this particular creature, you can start with the small Arboreal Bliss enclosure, and when they get to be about ⅓ the size, you will want to upgrade to the medium or large Arboreal Bliss enclosure. Feed them as slings once a week, twice if their opisthosoma (abdomen) looks small, but if the opisthosoma is wider than their prosoma (pneumothorax), then wait a couple of days to feed. For juveniles or adults, stick to feeding once a week, nothing larger than their opisthosoma. Make sure to keep a full water dish at all times; wider and deeper is preferred.

How long could a Peru Purple Pink-Toe Tarantula live?

Females are believed to live upwards of 12+ years, and males not exceeding around 4 years of age. All estimates are based on multiple sources.
