After several matings earlier in the year, I saw this in my blondi's cage. How sad.

Oh well. Better luck next time. I still have a BEAUTIFUL (and huge) blondi :)

Nice Pic!

Some blondi wear brown overal color after molting and some wear black (for example my blondi female). It's very interesting.

I was just wondering...

I've noticed a few species in other genus that aren't as commonly known, for example, everyone knows about the G. Rosea, but, not as many know about the G. Iheringi...

Are there any other species in the Theraphosa genus?

I have heard rumors about there being another species in this genus, but I believe that for now (offically), there is only these two.

You know, I was just going to post the same question, then I saw you already had!

I was in a pet store recently and they had a small juvie 'Silver birdeating tarantula' and underneath it said 'therephosa sp.' So I'm wondering if it is a mistake or some Theraphosa species I've never heard of. They wanted over a hundred dollars canadian for it.

Just curious what kind of substrate you are using Peonixx? It looks kind of like rocks.
