Aphonopelma seemanni ~ (Stripe-Knee Tarantula) 3" – Unsexed Juvenile

The Aphonopelma seemanni, also known as the Stripe-Knee Tarantula or Zebra Tarantula, is a visually striking New World species named for the bold white striping on its legs. Native to Central America, this species is semi-fossorial and appreciates deeper substrate for burrowing, especially as it matures.

This listing is for a 3” unsexed specimen, well past the fragile sling stage and ready to settle into a permanent terrestrial or semi-fossorial enclosure. While typically shy, they are hardy and long-lived, making them a beautiful and manageable addition to any collection.
