\"Cyriocosmus<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Native to the region of Bolivia,\nCyriocosmus Perezmilesi is a docile and relatively calm tarantula. Widely known\nas the Bolivian Dwarf Beauty, these species have assumed this name because of\ntheir dwarfish structure. To put it simply, they manage to assume a leg size of\nonly 2 inches, thus the name. These tarantulas do not burrow, nor do they kick\nout any urticating hair. So, if you\u2019re planning to bring a tarantula as a pet\nfor the first time, they can be a perfect fit. If you bring these tarantulas\nfor the first time, they might seem like a miniature version of the Costa Rican\nTiger Rump. With time, however, you will be able to distinguish by their\nspecific traits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scientific\nName<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cyriocosmus perezmilesi
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geographical distribution<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These tarantulas are native to the Bolivian\nregions. It is owing to their geographical habitat alone that they are known as\nthe Bolivian Dwarf Beauty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preferred natural habitat <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Native to\nthe Bolivian regions, these tarantulas prefer living in a tropical climate.\nTheir ideal habitat would be in a high to a moderately elevated region that\nwitnesses different kinds of climate. Since they are indigenous to the Bolivian\nregions, these tarantulas can withstand both warm and cool temperatures. The\nusual temperature of their natural habitat ranges from 8 degrees to 26 degrees\nCelsius. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preferred food in the wild <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These tarantulas\nare usually voracious eaters, and they usually thrive on a meal of fruit flies,\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personality <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Bolivian Dwarf Beauty is usually a docile specie. When you keep her as a pet, you\u2019ll notice them spending most of the time idly sitting or lazily moving around. In almost every case, these species won\u2019t kick urticating hair, nor do they give you any threat pose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Bolivian<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Feeding as a pet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When you\nkeep a Bolivian Dwarf Beauty as your pet, you can start out by feeding fruit\nflies. Eventually, after they assume a bigger size, start introducing baby\ncrickets to them. Finally, when your pet tarantula crosses the threshold of 2\ninches, start feeding them small roaches. I usually feed by Dwarf Beauties two\nroaches and two adult crickets at least once a week. In addition to the food, I\nhave also kept a water tray so that they can reach out for water as and when\nthey need to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifespan both male and\nfemale <\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like most other tarantulas, the female species of the\nBolivian Dwarf Beauty has a lifespan of around 15 years. The male counterpart,\nhowever, only manages to live for 5 to 6 years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pet enclosure type <\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ideal enclosure for these tarantulas would be a spacious spider ling vial that can accommodate at least 3 inches of substrate. If your tarantula is relatively bigger in size, try using a vial that allows at least 3 and half to 4 inches of substrate. The temperature should be around 25 degrees to 28 degrees Celsius and the humidity should be between 65 and 75%. To create a perfectly conducive environment, we would suggest you to, mist the vial at least once in two weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pet enclosure habitat layout <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since these tarantulas are opportunistic burrowers, we would\nrecommend you to, keep a thick substrate in their enclosure. You can come up\nwith this substrate by creating a concoction of peat moss, coconut fibre, and\ndirt for additional firmness. You should also place a bark in the terrarium to\naid them in burrowing. Additionally, also place a water dish as these\ntarantulas can get thirsty once in a while. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mating \/ reproducing <\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Bolivian Dwarf beauty is widely popular as a fast breeder. Due to this reason, mating them won\u2019t be that big of an issue. As you introduce the female to its male counterpart, it will naturally start out mating without any help from your end. Around 15-20 days after the mating, you will be able to see the egg sac, which should then be allowed to rest. Finally, after to 2 to 3 weeks, pull the sac off. If you\u2019re looking to achieve best results, do ensure that the humidity and temperature is always in check. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Development rate<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being dwarf tarantulas, these species only manage to reach a size of 2 inches. However, in order to achieve that, you will have to feed them regularly (i.e, twice a week). You should also ensure that the terrarium is big enough for them to freely move around so that they experience a completely undisturbed growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
