Hi. My name is Lyndsey. Just joined this forum. I have 14 tarantulas.
G.Rosea sling
G. Pulchripes sling
A.Chalcodes sling
G. Pulchra and quoigui juveniles unsexed
Avicularia pink toe juvenile
Caribeaba versicolor suspected male
G pulchripes 3” unsexed
A.Chalcodes 4” female
B. Emilia juvenile unsexed
B. Albiceps 3” female

1 I don’t know what it is-got it at Petco. Maybe you can help me, looks like it has blue black legs, tan carapace, starting to get red hairs on its rump. I’m thinking a verdezi or b albiceps but I think it’s carapace is too dark to be a albiceps. It’s the last pic I uploaded.

Hello and welcome aboard! To your question I would lean toward T. Verdezi but I don't keep many of the calmer new worlders. It, to me, doesn't look like an Albiceps! Ahhhh B. Albiceps!!! What a stunner! May have to get one! One of these days if would quit buying mean spoods. Lol!

Hello & welcome to the forum. I would also go with Tliltocatl verdezi, as a possibility too. The front body part, the prosoma looks much too dark to be a Brachypelma albiceps. And I say possibility, as I do not know with any level of confidence.
