Just ordered an ogre face and Chilobrachys sp Thailand from so many legs and they should arrive by Thursday so I'll share some pics. I'm presuming the Chilobrachys is an unknown species as I can't find any information on a sp Thailand or it's looks, so this'll be an interesting surprise. Have you guys heard of this species?

That's just a placeholder name for a sample collected from Thailand. It's probably just a colour morph of C. huahini. This sort of thing happens a lot in the hobby like there was a Aphonopelma sp. Flagstaff Orange that is now just a A. chalcodes colour morph.
I see.. well I have a female huahini so I can compare the two. Thanks for the info

There's so many in the chilobrachys genus It will be interesting to see your pics of what she looks likeI see.. well I have a female huahini so I can compare the two. Thanks for the info
we have quite a few but still many more needed to add to the collection Definitely my favorite genus, they aren't the most beautiful of Ts but I love their look. I am definitely looking to collect as many species as possible.There's so many in the chilobrachys genus It will be interesting to see your pics of what she looks like

They are great Ts... Often over looked but what's not to love?Definitely my favorite genus, they aren't the most beautiful of Ts but I love their look. I am definitely looking to collect as many species as possible.
Great feeding response, speedy, bad attitude and make amazing borrowsThey are great Ts... Often over looked but what's not to love?
Considering I have a few adult females I'm gonna try breeding at some point, just on the prowl for some males.I know a few people like that! ha haGreat feeding response, speedy, bad attitude and make amazing borrows

Congrats on the new arrivals
that chilobrachys looks lovely... How does it compare in looks to your AF huahini?Similar colours but the Thailand has more redish on the legs which I love, I'll try catch a picture of my huahini to do a side by side but she's a complete recluse lol. The dark spots on T's indicates older age? This female is pretty big so I'm assuming she's an older girl.Congrats on the new arrivals

Do you know if she's wild caught or captive bred? She sure is beautiful.. I'd say it looks like an older female.. It will probably become a recluse just like your huahini
I find our Cambodia blue AF goes through phases of hiding then being out in the open for a while xx

What species is the ogre face spider? I've observed many wild ones in KwaZulu-Natal here in South Africa.
I believe she is captive bred, I'll ask the seller. Yeah I'm expecting her to completely disappear, all of my chilobrachys do so accept the krachan. You're lucky you get to see yours every now and then, virginiacheesman has an AF Cambodian blue and I am very tempted, beautiful spiderDo you know if she's wild caught or captive bred?

I'm not certain, it was just under deinopis sp. But here's the adult photo they included.
