Hey have been looking for a care sheet for the Chilobrachys dyscolus - Burma Chocolate Brown and can not seem to find one anywhere i know its of the same genus as the asian fawn and likes to burrow (pet hole) but any further info would be greatly appreciated

They also like webbing
They come from Thailand

As for temps and things like that not really sure and can't really help you there.

Not every one of the 940+ species of tarantulas has its own care sheet. But many of them have dozens of care sheets with all sorts of conflicting guidelines and ridiculous recommendations.

And, neither do each of those 940+ species actually NEED their own care sheet.

I suggest you do the following:

1> Read Care Sheets: The Mothers of all Myths! .

2> Look at other closely related species. Generally, all the members of the same genus (in this case Chilobrachys) can tolerate the same or very similar conditions.

3> Go to the Spiders Calgary website and start reading.

Hope this helps. Best of luck.

By all means. As the adage goes: "Call me anything you want as long as you don't forget to call me for supper!"
