What is the Tarantula Hobby Like in Mexico?

I sit down with Juan, a tarantula hobbyist in Mexico, who hung out with us on our trip and helped us out a lot. He answers some of my questions about what it is like keeping pet tarantulas and other invertebrates in Mexico and how that contrasts with the keeping them in the United States.

RARE Tarantula FOUND IN NATURE in Mexico!

Come with me as I head deep into the forests of Mexico in search of wild tarantulas with my friends from The Spider Shoppe (and Juan. He is a friend, just not from the Spider Shoppe.). We hiked for hours outside of Mexico City through some rough terrain, and yeah, it got frustrating at times. But every time we found a tarantula, it made the struggle worth it. Especially when we came across Aphonopelma anitahoffmannae...that moment was unforgettable.Come with me as I head deep into the forests of Mexico in search of wild tarantulas with my friends from The Spider Shoppe (and Juan.

The BioDudes handcrafted bioactive substrate for Tarantulas, Scorpions, Spiders, Vinegaroons and other invertebrates. Terra Aranea is a one of a kind substrate that was thoroughly tested for over a year prior to it's release in 2019. Terra Aranea substrate is specifically designed for all biomes that can get very dry and arid or in a high humidity biome. This substrate is designed to hold the perfect amount of water while allowing for evaporation, preventing anaerobic bacteria growth, which is a common fight when dealing with inverts and terrariums. Terra Aranea also retains all burrows and hides. I have found this substrate brings out many of the instinctual niches that many different invertebrates do in their daily life. Not only does it hold a burrow, it also holds a complete tunnel when the moisture content is held at 25%-75%.
