Antilles Pink Toe Tarantula
Caribena versicolor
SPECIES OVERVIEW
The Antilles Pink Toe Tarantula, an eight legged colourful monster. It is an aggressive eater that is equipped with a variety of skills to allow it to hunt almost anything that they are able to overpower.
​
They are able to construct magnificent funnel webs on trees, which is where these species are mostly found.
​
They tend to be quite docile by their nature, the first line of defense unfortunately for the opponent is flinging poo at what they determine to be a threat. If they continue to feel threatened however they will be more than capable of delivering a few swift bites!
​
The Antilles pinktoe tarantula also has a fuzzy body full of barbed hairs, they are likely to rub them off on the attacker causing damage and irritation to whatever they come into contact with.
​
Playing as the pink Antilles Pink Toe Tarantula is a rewarding journey, for those who make it to adulthood. Their play styles can be varied although they succeed best with patient assassination style surprise attacks on unsuspecting crickets.
