Hi guys I'm ross new to the forum
New ish to the t world I rescued this one from an empty home that was left behind but not sure on species any ideas?
Thanks
Looks like an Aphonopelma species, cat be sure which one though. Also Tarantulas don't really have breeds. Tarantulas have different species. A breed would indicate different characteristics within the same species like what you see with dogs or cats. Welcome to the Forum and hope someone can ID your tarantula.
 
Seems to be Aphonopelma Chalcodes. The carapess is a bit dark though so I am not 100%.
 
He/she is quite small at the mo around 3-4" so maybe a juvenile or a small male
Was thinking more alone the lines of
anitahoffmannae ? with a dark carapess
 
My first thoughts was A. Gabeli but I just shout Chalcodes at every Aphonopelma now :confused:
