I kept one for a few years and it was surprisingly entertaining, tirelessly maintaining the burrow, and sometimes starting completely over for seemingly no reason.

"Filthy Steve", who lived in a fish bowl in the living room, primarily fed on tresspassing crickets and <em>Solifugae</em>. <em>Centroides</em> are our most common household pest, to the begroan of our bare feet. I could probably find 10 of them or more in the garage right now. I have kept one arizonensis before, and he was awesome.
