Miami Wolf Spider for sale from Big Z's (Hogna miami). Spice-rated keeper notes, care guidance, and live-arrival packing where eligible.
Blink and it's gone. South Florida's fastest ground hunter
Hogna miami, the Miami Wolf Spider, is a dusky yellow-brown native you will find almost nowhere outside Miami-Dade County. It skips the web entirely and hunts on foot, a ground-hugging ambush predator that trades a tidy trap for raw speed and camouflage. Body length runs about 3/4 to 1.25 inches of coiled, all-business muscle. When it moves, it moves.
The bite is mild and not medically significant, but this is a fast, hands-off animal built for display, not for your palm. It asks for little: an arid setup with digging room and a burrow to start, and it settles in quick. Give it that and you get a front-row seat to a native Florida hunter most people never see. The care guide has the full build and the boundaries.
The numbers live in the care guide. Enclosure size, temps, humidity, feeding schedule, premolt signs, handling boundaries: it's all in the care guide for this exact fella. Start with the full Advanced guide, or click for the quick Open the Simple version →
