Pseudhapalopus sp. "blue" He no longer has it on the site, and it was difficult to ask if he has it again without knowing a name. If anyone knows please inform me thanks.

Yep, that is a gorgeous Psalmopoeus pulcher. I have one. They are much more reclusive than most Psalmos, and mine is not defensive at all. They ARE a bit skittish but would rather hide than defend.

Exactly what Cryptic said: very shy but not defensive (they prefer to hide). They are absolutely stunning, no wonder they are called "pulcher"!!!
I've never seen one before last night. Do they keep the blue on them?

To tell you the truth, the back of the abdomen is rather greyish black, at least in my P pulcher. I guess the blue tint is given by a certain light... (sometimes, the real tarantulas are a little bit disappointing in contrast with some photos...).
Thanks. I was wondering, once I started looking at them I didn't see blue in many. Still a great looking tarantula.

That one passed long ago... yes, she did lose that blueish color. The one I have now is a gorgeous MM that is super fluffy... he looks like a plush toy!

I've held all my Ts with no issue my p Metallica, my Monocentropus Balfouri, my a Enzendami, c Darlingi, c Marshalli, camaroon red baboon, even my OBT with no issues. Trick is don't fear them and to be calm and gentle and you will be just fine.
