They would easily go into a small arboreal enclosure such as an ExoTerra nano or maybe even something a bit smaller.Chances are that if they're in plain sight in your home, they'd also be a good display species. Orange and gold spiders are highly desirable in the hobby, the best example world-wide being the OBT or H pulchripes.There's gotta be exporters. I've heard that in Germany, Australian species are popular.  Regular captures of these might easily get you some extra income as well.Typically when a new species enters the hobby, they're wild caught and gradually over time, people breed them in captivity. If they're just in your home, I doubt that they're endangered.Maybe reaching out to tarantula breeders and sellers world wide about these might be worth it. Even if they aren't importers, they'll know who is.At that point, I can get one!!</blockquote>
