Pseudhapalopus sp. "blue"

[joshuai]

Hello i have a female one of these, and am getting out of tarantulas but i have never seen one for sale, a female that is so i have no reference as what to price it at., If some one can give me some insight as to what a resonable price for a 1.5-2 inch female would be i would be greatly apreciated! Thanks a bunch! I have had her for about three to four years and i got her at 1/8 inch! These grow slow!

I bought 4 (2juvi males and 2juvi females) at about 2" for 200 shipped.

Who ever raised them to 2 inches and sold 4 of them (including 2 sexed females) all for $200 bucks shipped grossly ripped himself off IMO.

I believe they are a dwarf Sp and only get about the 3" mark.

1 was sold to me as a possible female the other three were sold to me as unsexed and when i got them I was easily able to ventral sex them and confirm it later via molts.

blue no more?

Rather shocking transformation with my Pseudhapalopus sp. "blue" yesterday. It molted and RADICALLY changed color... and lost its blue rump! Unsure of sex yet as the exuvia is tattered, but this picture says a thousand words, considering what it looked like from early 2010, when its blue rump appeared, to the present. Its whole body has turned black, including abdomen, from the overall blue-gray it always had.

Has more information surfaced about this species? I am very curious to see images of other members' specimens.



Here's how it looked almost two years ago:

He's right. The males of this species change colors when they mature. You my friend likely have a MM there.

 

[DaveEmory]

Yep.. fat palps. No hooks visible, but I am not picking it up until it hardens more. I had a feeling this was what happened; my male A. diversipes just matured as well, and lost all color. Leggy brown fellow now.

I am officially now looking for someone with a mature female who is experienced and ready to try a breeding. Contact me if so. (A. diversipes, also.)

This guy has just started making sperm webs, and I sure would like to see him go to someone who can do a breeding. Please contact me if you have a suitable female!
