Hi Steven,

great to see some pics of this quite rare Cupiennius species!

"Normal brown" colour form? You really think so? While C. getazi is quite rarely offered to my opinion, when i saw pics of this species, the orange-morph seemed just more common to me. In fact i´ve never seen a C. getazi with that colour your last pictured specimen has. All of the non-orange variants i´ve seen of this species had a more light-grey colour, much brighter than that specimen, quite interesting. Does it always look this way or is it just before a molt?

Greetings,

Stefan

mmm,.. strange
i remember someone telling me 1/4 of slings of C.getazi turn out the red/orange form,... so i assumed the brown one was the more "common" colorform,... maybe cause the red-form is more beautifull then the brown form you see more pictures of it
