identification

So I bought a grammostola porteri at a reptile expo,(which was only my 4th tarantula ever) and surprised got two free tarantula slings. 1 was a grammostola pulchripes, and 1 of them doesn't have a species name on it so I need some help. I know the photo is bad, but that was the best one I could...

Hello, I own these two tarantulas one is a female all black with some whitish red coloring and the other is all black but with a red abdomen. I was wondering if someone could help me identify each tarantula. Male: Fully mature. A question I specifically have is whether the 2 spots and a bald...

Hi there, I am trying to ID some spiders which have been moved on to me and I wondered if anyone would be able to offer me some assistance. I love spiders and know some about them however I am no expert so I am reaching out for help in the only way I know how! If this post is not allowed here...

I've been lurking here for about a month or so. Not T. related but curious in anyone can help me ID this little thing. I am located in NE Wisconsin I cant seem to find much info on one that looks like this. Thanks y'all!

Is this blue peru 2 or thrixopelma longcolli or some other T? T is 3" and I also attached some sling shots. Thanks for any and all information.

Almost adult colours now. Anyone experienced in sexing?

Hopefully the right place for this post I ordered spiders from a large breeder and this guy hitched a ride in the box any ideas what he is?

Hi, I'm a relatively new T hobbyist. I've owned one B. Hamorii for a very short time before it ended up dying. I was a mess afterwards and my boyfriend decided to surprise me with what he thought was another B. Hamorii. It's been a few months since then, it molted twice and it became clear (as...

Hello all! A friend of mine sent me a picture of a spider she found in her home and was curious what it was! Thought it might be cool to see the speculation of those who know much more than I do! Any ideas? We live in coastal VA by the way.

Hi! Can anyone help me with this lovely creature? Seen in the rainforest in Central DRC!

Hey Everyone! I decided over the past few weeks to try my hand at tarantula care for the first time in over 10 years. I had a few while I was in my teens, but never had them long term. Today I welcomed to the family a juvenile avicularia and was wondering if anyone could help identify what kind...

Hello all! I’m new to this site, I’ve been on Arachnoboards for a while but wanted to try this out. This is not my own T but someone I know owns it but has no idea what it is. (Being new to the tarantula hobby I also have no idea lol) My immediate reaction would be G. pulchra but that seems to...

I know shes a Goliath but Im wondering what type? Im fairly new to the arachno world

I think it might be a Brazilian Red (Nhandu carapoensis), but I want to be sure. I'm completely new to tarantulas, never thought of keeping one! But it seems very interesting. Any help or tips would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello I’m new to the hobby and I already have two P. Audax spiderlings but recently today I found this other species and I need help identifiying it. If it helps any I live in Southern California. It also appears one of the back legs isn’t working I know I didn’t harm it with the container when...

Soo... i am slightly confused, i have received a second sling labelled C. Argentinensis (as a freebie) but this one doesn’t look like the first one. It is much lighter. Can two slings from the same species look different? Or do i have a mystery sling in my hands? Sling1: sling 2:

Shes only about 3 inches or so so not sure if you'll be able to tell. Sorry for the quality, not great, Although does not show up super well, her hairs on legs are fairly red, and very very red/orange with the tiger stripes of black on the side, and the black stripe in the middle. She has...

I found this sling in Sunflower Arizona almost a year ago and im still having trouble trying to find out what he might be. Someone have any suggestions?

I went into a pet sore and they had this one tarantula that had apparently been there for awile. Part of the problem is that it was unlabeled for a long time. The other was that they "didnt know it was going to be mean". They gave it to me for free to get it out of the store. They labeled it a...
