Shopping guidance
Useful before you choose
Use the care guides
Linked Species guides explain temperament, enclosure style, humidity and feeding notes before you buy. They are there to save both you and the spider from avoidable drama.
Stock changes quickly
Availability can change as orders come in, so product pages show the current lifestage and stock status. If something vanishes, it probably found a new shelf to sit on.
New
Brachypelma Hamorii
Frequently spotted perched in plain view, occasionally rearranging their décor with the sort of mild enthusiasm reserved for Sunday gardeners.
New
Davus pentaloris
Prone to a sudden moonwalk into the hide at the faintest hint of movement—clearly believes the best offence is making you question if it was ever there at all.
New
Hapalopus formosus
Dashes for cover faster than your reflexes and redecorates nightly, leaving you to wonder if you even own a spider or just a particularly energetic patch of web.
New
Hapalopus vangoghi
Keeps to itself until the lights go out, then redecorates with webbing like it’s prepping for a midnight exhibition. Shy, swift, and not at all fussed about human approval.
Homoeomma chilensis
Unfazed by life's dramas, this one spends its days rearranging substrate, sulking in a burrow, or pretending dinner is an unexpected audit.
Kochiana brunnipes
Usually a glimpse of legs vanishing underground, but will surface unexpectedly—especially if you foolishly believed you’d never see it again.
Lasiocyano sazimai
Vivid blue, rarely seen—unless it’s vanished dinner or you’re cleaning, in which case, brace yourself for a sudden lesson in eight-legged sprinting.
Nhandu coloratovillosus
Struts about like it owns the place, only pausing to flick a hair or redecorate with a modest patch of webbing. Not big on drama, unless it’s dinnertime or you meddle with its hide.
New
Pamphobeteus sp. “machala”
Has the presence of a tank but the nerve of a napper—mostly seen lurking, unless spooked, in which case it exits stage left with unexpected enthusiasm.
Phormictopus auratus
Inclined to reappear just as you put the enclosure lid back on, then proceeds to flick hairs if you question its bold redecorating during late-night prowls.
