Pink Toe Tarantula

Did You Know

Although all tarantulas are venomous, the Pink Toe Tarantula’s bite isn’t very strong, only as painful as a wasp sting.

Fun Facts!

We have a new baby at Whitehouse Farm. Our Pink Toe Tarantula, Pinky, will be on show as soon as she is old enough. Keep an eye out for her in our Petting Barn.
