Favorite Brachypelma species?

[PanzoN88]

B. emilia (those are not mites on its abdomen, it was feeding time and I dropped the superworm bedding that the worm was clinging to)

they look stunning, the triangle on the carapace makes the B. emilia look very distinct compared to the others in the genus.

I think emilia is probably my favorite with hamorii or auratum running a close second

Would you all consider the darker parts on B. emilia's legs black, gray, or blue? Or other? It's not a plain black like the black on a B. hamorii or B. auratum. The color seems to match the color of the legs on mature T. vagans and B. albiceps, right? Blue-ish black?

Black on mine. Velvety black.

Oh we’re doing pictures are we?

She got a little fat before he last molt. I’m loving all the emilia love in this thread, I really had the idea they were underrated in the genus.

Yeah, B. emilia is definitely one Brachy that really stands out from the rest. That mask is just...
