Need help Identifying Avicularia’s!

[DarthLray000]

Hey everyone! New member here! Thought the fourums could give me some insight on questions I might have being a new tarantula keeper. My first tarantula I bought from a pet store () was a Avicularia avicularia, pink toe. So the tag said. That was 8 months ago. Today I was in the pet store again and saw they had another avicularia and it was being kept in poor conditions, so I couldn’t let it stay there. They had a heat lamp on in it, kept in a terrestrial set up with wood chips substrate and no water. So I had to save this guy. My problem is... it was labeled as an avicularia avicularia pink toe, but it looks completely different from my first one... so it’s the same genus but looks like a different species. Pictures online are not helping, would love some comments on helping identifying the two so I feel a little bit better understanding what I have and taking care of, thanks everyone!

@KezyGLA would be the one to ask for species identification.

Both are Avicularia avicularia, the first one appears to be morph 6 and the second morph 1.

originally on Take Hart. Tony Hart being an artist who had a tv show and morph was always his little sidekick who had his own segment in each episode.

Very helpful information thank you. This is the first time I’m hearing about morph’s so I’m assuming there are multiples out there. 1 through 6?

Was hart attack a prequel to art attack with Niel Buckingham? And I guess the head was a poor attempt at replicating morph

Lol-Take Hart(the proper name of the program not hart attack!) was way before Art Attack-I remember that program well especially when neil used to create the big picture where you had to work out what it was out of the strangest things!-the roman head you mention never had the same appeal as morph-reminds me of all the other stuff I used to watch as a child -How 2 and alike

And that's how. For now. used to love that. I feel like there used to be a good mix of educational programmes for children (how 2, art attack, Rosie and Jim and such) and just pure cartoons and nonsense ( biker mice from mars, tom and jerry, zap) and now it upsets me when you see cartoons that are now all educational but uninteresting for kids so they sit and play games on iPads hense why the newer generations aren't able to think for themselves and lack the ability to socialise offline

I'm also gonna stop highjacking this thread as I could talk about cartoons and 90s tv for hours . I blame Phil for bringing it up

This all escalated very quickly.

Yes @Rs50matt -it is all @Phil fault-we are blameless lol
you are also right in your opinion of the young people of today-I quite agree

 

[Phil]

Mwahaha....see how I get in your heads. All part of my master plan. Resistance is futile.
