What about sp. amazonica? I still can't ID them well yet, but the abdomen does look a little similar to mine.
I keep terrestrials. The fascination with avics alludes me. I thought that the very distinct coloration would make it an easy IDOh yeah, that's a pretty Avic
It is NOT however A. minatrix, that much I know.
Pictures don't do it justice, either. I can't say I was super excited about that one, but she quickly grew on me. Amazing disposition as well. I wouldn't say it's rare, but not common either. Look for either G. sp. "Maule" or "Concepcion", they look darn near identical. In fact, if you buy one, there's a decent chance you'll be getting the other instead!All three are beauties, but that Grammostola sp. "Maule" is the one catching my eye. I guess I have somehow missed noticing this species anywhere before. Is it a common one?
So you are now guilty for giving me the need of a another T on my wish list.
It's not so much that, it's more about Hobby B. albo and Nicaraguan B. albo. I believe that the "Honduras" is what people mean by Hobby, but... no, it's a hobby form. Inbreeding and cross breeding saw to that. The Nicaraguan's have a black body with blonde setae. The Hobby's have brown bodies with blonde setae.
Thank you! And those black bodies are VERY attractive. Hmmmmmm... wishlist....
Yes I am . I hated to sell them but life happens and you gotta do what you gotta do . They were my two favorites . The Albo is very feisty and the Grammy spends all day rearranging her enclosure .
I guess I need to give that Maule a ping pong ball! And here I thought that the albo was a sweetheart. She was the definition of docile, but apparently she was just in shock from the shipping.
'i have NO idea where i am, but when I do, i'll kick your ass'

After reviewing that thread I linked before, I'm pretty certain this is Maule.
or versicolor or laeta or purpurea etc ... Didn't feel like listing them all.
