Monocentropus balfouri - Socotra Island Blue Baboon
Approx. 2-3" when purchased and already established in a brand new Tarantula Cribs 8" Cube, an enclosure worth about $50 by itself. The enclosure has been set up as a complete naturalistic habitat with deep substrate, cork bark, a water dish and plenty of structure for the extensive webbing this species is known for, so you're getting the tarantula and a complete ready-to-go setup.
Native to Socotra, M. balfouri is one of the most distinctive Old World tarantulas in the hobby, with striking blue legs, a pale carapace and heavy webbing behavior. They're hardy, excellent feeders and fascinating display animals. They're also fast and defensive when disturbed, but are generally much more inclined to retreat into their webbing than stand their ground.
