Y it's called Pink zebra beauty !!

[skar]

And here it is !!

IDK but She got mad and was striking at my tongs
This is 3-4 days after a molt I was trying to feed her but whatev she'll do it later. Gorgeous right ?

 

[BrettG]

That looks like N.chromatus to me..Probably why it was striking at tongs as well.....

That looks like N.chromatus to me..Probably why it was striking at tongs as well.....where did you get it from?

Haha yeah I was going to say it looked like my A. genic sling. Still very pretty

 

[skar]

crap. I got fooled ?

You are telling me a tarantula seller sold you that as a PZB, and couldn't tell the difference? Wow.

 

[BrettG]

No,James was fooled. He had the scientific name right,but had the common names as "pzb"...

 

[skar]

Yup on both. I guess I will see him today and see what I do have .
guess I have it now whatever it is LOL

 

[Mez]

Yes you got fooled. N. chromatus are relatively inexpensive, as are A. geniculata but a CB E. campestratus would cost a bit more, here at least. They also look nothing alike, just google them lol.

 

[theconmacieist]

It was probably an honest mistake. Common names just are not that trustworthy. If you let the dealer know he would probably give you what you want or a refund.

I guarantee you it is A.brocklehursti.I have some of that batch as well.
James was sold those by a vendor on this site,as A.brocklehursti,but was told the common name was Pink Zebra Beauty. I informed him otherwise,since he was only looking for docile spiders at the time....lol.....

 

[skar]

OOPs - uh out of curiosity how much is cheap for those usually speaking ?
I feel dumb . . . oh well

 

[BrettG]

Normally anywhere from $12-25,depending who you buy it from,and the size.

 

[skar]

Ha- Aw well . I owe you brett thanks !!
good thing I didn't try to hold it !

 

[BrettG]

Np.That is a great spider.

 

[skar]

I was keeping it as a pzb, I didn't even consider anything else !
You're saying this is a keeper huh !?

 

[BrettG]

Google it up...They are great looking spiders.Fiesty attitude as well!
