Approx 4 weeks post moult. Adult Female T blondi. This one is supposedly the "Brazilian" form. Most are French Guyana but visually and without any equipment to conform, looks like all my other T blondi.
The only thing I have been able to find is that they are (allegedly) "hairier" than the French Guyana blondi. Not great I know but that's all I have found. Supposedly a bit darker too, similar to apophysis, but all my blondi are that deeper colour post moult anyway so again not the best way to distinguish between them IMHO
I have another AF who moulted a week after this one and another in heavy pre moult so I will do some side by side comparisons but TBH, I don't see any difference at all.

The sac was bad unfortunately. I have another that has been paired that will hopefully nest soon and there are 3 more AF recently moulted for when my next male.matures (next moult)

Of the 3 Theraphosa pairings I have attempted (1x stirmi and 2 x Blondi) it has been 7 months after pairing before any egg laying activity from all of them. Unfortunately, yet to have a viable sac.
Blimey I knew it was usually a few month but anything over 6 month say .its usually assumed that the egg sac they make will be infertile .were yours all seasoned adults e.g over 3yrs old .does seem a long time .ive paired a few off myself so very interested it's been a while lol
