I bought a blondi from a pet store and i was concerned about it's health. I am posting pictures this is my first experience with the species.

Thats how they look like. Nothing to worry about. (Theraphosa Sp "burgundy" )

As Fran said thats a normal look. The petstore sold you a T. blondi but it is another specie that is today described as Theraphosa stirmi.

The real T. blondi have long hairs on the patella (knee) and your specimen have not.
