Brachypelma smithi

Oh the humanity, Petco employees afraid of tarantulas. This was climbing up glass and employee was trying to scrape it into box. I was not happy. Eventually t went near substrate and employee put box over it to scrape it in with another box. T. went into box while he was doing it. I could not help. I think the hairs are long on legs and they said she was female. Small opisthoma? Beautiful spider.

Are there several forms of the Mexican Redknee?

 

[arachbiodude]

This hamorii I think.

Red knee with black triangle means hamorii according to Youtube video.

Brachypelma hamorii for sure. Another pet trade misidentification.

Hi,
I wouldn't trust them with it being a female for sure, they likely have no idea. What was the price if you do not mind me asking?
P.S: This T needs a good meal

Not on sale for $100. Hope it is captive bred.

I put superworm and lobster roach in there. Still skiddish.
