I think stratum, and vagans are my favorite brachypelma.
Out of all the Brachys, B. schroederi is without a doubt the best eater not many know about. It's also supposed to be on the smaller side.

It was purchased as B albiceps but when compared to the other one I have (on the LHS) the colouration of the abdomen and legs (and size) makes me think their might be a bit of a hybrid in her. Consensus being either klasii or bohemia in there too? The legs are chocolate brown/deep red which I have never seen in any other albiceps I have owned as always jet black. The carapace is deffo 'albiceps' in appearance though.
I have a sexed female albiceps that looks just like it. 3" legspan, at least, and still brown instead of blue/black. We may have hybrids, they may be something else, but they resemble albiceps in every other way. I'll post a pic or pm you soon, I have alot going on right now. Cheers buddy.

It still amazes me why people dont like sabulosum and the prefer the other tedious slow growing Brachypelma's.

I’m not sure about the states but when I was looking around for Ts sabulosum wasn’t as commonly sold as the other species.

you are right, took me a while to track one down in the UK. there was 2 for sale in a pet shop about 50 mies from me so the tarantula bus got some more miles on the clock too :)
