Bumba horrida

Stocky, bristly, and very diggy — a classic burrower with earthy tones and that “spiky” look. Generally skittish and prone to kicking hairs (not a handling species), but straightforward once set up with depth and ventilation. Great for keepers who enjoy watching natural burrowing behaviour.

Quick care:
