New Stock

Ok, so we have some new stuff in stock. Most of it is tarantulas. Also, I apologize for the lack of updates. There wasn't anything really worth talking about. So here's some tarantulas. (Please note, we cannot guarantee the sex of a tarantula spiderling) As always, experience with tarantulas is recommended for almost all of our tarantulas. (Yes, I'm aware that the previous statement is stupid and paradoxical)

Chilean Copper (Paraphysa scrofa)- Priced at $25. A fun 'Step 2' tarantula.  This is a dwarf species, and doesn't get as large as a Rosehair, sizing in at only about 3 inches, possibly up to 4. Their color is a very pretty reddish hue with dark areas. To see a picture, visit the stock page.

Arizona Blonde (Aphonopelma chalcodes)- Priced at $30. A US native from Arizona, this tarantula is relatively slender, with a blonde coloration. They are a burrowing species, so a visible tunnel is the best way to observe them. Not as small as the Chilean Copper, but not as big as a Chaco Gold Knee, they are a moderately sized tarantula at about 4 inches. Pictures on the stock page.

Chilean Rosehair (Grammostola rosea)- Priced at $20. Most people start with Rosies, and they make a good starter tarantula. They are relatively docile if handled regularly, and have a beautiful pink color. These will go fast, so get them while we have them!

Pinktoe (Aviculara aviculara, possibly Aviculara versicolor)- Priced at $35. A great starter tarantula for arboreal enthusiasts. This tarantula is small, relatively docile (albeit a bit jumpy), and rumored to be communal. (Pro tip: underfeeding may lead to cannibalism in cohabitation. Top Hat Exotics does not recommend cohabitation) Spiderlings have a pink body and dark toes, but as they mature, their colors reverse, showing a dark body, red abdomen, and pink or orange toes.

And the crown jewel, the best for last.
Chaco Gold Knees (Grammostola Pulchripes)- Priced at $45. Often considered the largest handleable tarantula in the pet trade, these are a fantastic animal. As they mature, they stop burrowing and hiding, often sitting in plain sight. At 8-9 inches and sporting a dark brown coloration with golden yellow at the knees, these are an amazing tarantula to keep. Fantastic eaters and easy to handle, these tarantulas are considered by many to be the perfect pet tarantula. These WILL sell extremely quickly. Keep an eye on the stock page to see how many are left.
