Brief description Haplopelma spec. “Bach Ma”:

The distribution area of Haplopelma spec. Bach Ma is just over forty kilometers from Hue and covers 22,000 hectares. The Bach Ma Park contains different vegetation zones, ranging from simple coastal plains to high mountain peaks. This species lives there about 18 km from the sea at an altitude of 1400 meters. The temperature should not be permanently above 28 °C, as this does not correspond to their natural climatic condition.

Haplopelma spec. “Bach Ma” lives in nature under pieces of bark or in burrows. In doing so, it weaves in its living space and additionally stabilizes it. The substrate moisture should not be too wet. It is best to offer it two different moisture zones and place a piece of bark across them. This allows it to choose the most suitable place. Spraying two to three times a week is sufficient. A 30 × 30 × 30 cm cube is a suitable terrarium size for an adult animal.

The animals like to assume an attack position and stretch upwards. Nevertheless, they remain relatively calm and do not run away. They are therefore relatively easy to handle.
Haplopelma spec. Bach Ma is not very demanding to keep and is also suitable for beginners, as this species is forgiving of one or two husbandry mistakes.
