It is a famously slow grower, which is exactly why a 0.75 to 1 inch sling is worth starting early. These arrived at that size, unsexed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpice Level 4: Advanced. Defensive, quick to threat-posture, and a strict no-handling animal that is known for stridulating audibly when annoyed. What it actually wants is depth: substrate deep enough to build a real burrow, kept dry, with a starter hole to get it going. Expect to see it rarely and to respect it constantly. The Big Z's care guide has the full setup.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","offers":[{"title":"0.75-1\" (Sling)","offer_id":52826344227133,"sku":"BZ-T-PMUTICUS-075","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7755\/4493\/files\/IMG_6455.jpg?v=1786837838","url":"https:\/\/www.bigzs.shop\/products\/king-baboon-tarantula-pelinobius-muticus","provider":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
