Well, it's always a little sad when a male matures, but you could always try to find him a girl and let his legacy live on that way.
And if you do, get one of his slings if he is successful.

Can't tell for certain since I haven't gotten a good look at his palps yet, but he is significantly leggier than he was before today's molt.
Just a quick follow up, he’s a little more stretched out so I got a better look at his legs. He hooked out. He’s definitely mature.

I think I know someone who knows someone with a female purpurea, but that was based on a conversation I had about a year ago after I found out he was male so I don’t know where we are now. He’s the fourth of my males to mature, so it would be nice if at least ONE of them got to mate.

My B. vagans .75-1" sling molted, took a good pic of the molt and I'm pretty sure it's female! Woohoo!

My B. albo sling also molted, and my H. gigas 3" juvie.

One of my new arrivals from Thursday 1/2" T. ockerti just finished molting. Very unexpected, it ate yesterday and didn't look like it was premolt. No picture, didn't want to risk disturbing it, poor little baby has had a stressful week.
