Pair that with hard-edged black chevrons striping a tan abdomen and a charcoal body, and you have one of the most immediately recognisable Old World tarantulas on the market. At 2.5 to 3 inches the horn is already well formed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an Old World spider and it behaves like one. There are no urticating hairs to fall back on, so its answer to being bothered is speed and a threat pose it fully intends to back up. The bite is not medically significant, but it is widely reported as genuinely painful, and that makes this a tongs-only, no-handling animal and a poor first tarantula. The husbandry itself is easy provided you respect the burrow: dry substrate deep enough to excavate, a starter hide, and as little disturbance as you can manage. Spice 4, advanced lane. Read the care guide before it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","offers":[{"title":"2.5-3\" (Unsexed)","offer_id":52801642692925,"sku":"BZ-T-CMARSHALLI-253","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7755\/4493\/files\/unicorn-horned-baboon-tarantula-1.jpg?v=1786642588","url":"https:\/\/www.bigzs.shop\/products\/unicorn-horned-baboon-tarantula-ceratogyrus-marshalli","provider":"Big Z's Habitats and Arachnids","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
