Panama blonde (psalmpopoeus pulcher)
Quick stats: |
 The P. pulcher |
|
Species Information: This arboreal native to Panama (duh) is said to be less aggressive than other members of its genus. |
|
Feeding: She gets medium sized crickets. |
| Housing: The spider lives in a medium sized pet-pal tipped up on end. Substrate is an inch or two of potting soil. There is a piece of cork bark for climbing. She's done a small amount of webbing in the cage. I try to keep the humidity around 70-80%. It's usually about 80-82°F in my spider room, where it is kept. Because it's still really too small for a water dish, humidity is maintained by misting and moist substrate. |  This cage for the P. formosa is like the one for the P. pulcher. |
|
Temperment: Though other members of this genus tend to be a bit mean, this species is reported to be fairly tame. |
