Yea, I'd think so. Different color morphs wouldn't change the genetics enough to have it be classified as a different species or sub species. I wouldn't think so... but I'm not sure.

P. Ultramarinus, Nigricolors, 'Ecuador'. 'Ecuador II', etc. I want them all! Lol. Hopefully I'll be able to submit my research proposal for inverts. (spiders in this case) and their impact on their surrounding ecosystem next year so I can study them.

Hope to own all of the Pamphobeteus species since they really do appeal to me.
Does anyone own any of the Pampho. species?



Wouldn't it still be called G. Rosea then? Sorry, I'm just curious, didn't know they named them differently for color morphs.

Heres my Pamphobeteus platyoma just hanging out its about 4 months old and about 4 inch body from fang to spinner. I have my 3rd G.rosy and my 2nd one fell apart. I mean it literally fell apart. It was hanging out on the side and 1 leg fell off. I stopped it from leaking with flour then another leg fell off. It continued to do this till 1 leg was left attached but no movement was coming from her. Anybody ever even heard of this happening?
For your 1st tarantula I would recomend anything from the Brachypelmas. My B.vagans was awesome he would crawl on my hand and man was he an aggressive eater. My B.smithi My 3rd of wich the 1st 2 were supposed to be females. She Is a sweetest thing shell shake youre hand. Her names Pandora and here she is on pandoras box.

I can actually contribute to this thread now. :)
My boyfriend is really into T's. He got a Rose Hair a few months ago before we moved in together. In the last 3 days we now have 5 T's.

Here is what we now have:

2- Rose Hairs (G. rosea) One is mine, the other is his.
1- Guatemalan Red Rump (B. sabulosom)
1- Fire Red Bird Eater (L. difficilis)
1- Orange Baboon Tarantula (P. murinus)

Will post pictures as soon as I can get some. 3/5 are tiny Slings so it is a pain to get pictures of them.

This thread has pics that'll blow your mindddd

Not sure all the other Ts where ok but he was really small and as much as i love ben siegel reptiles he wasnt shipped rite. He was shipped in an 8oz deli with a paper towel lining it way to big to safely ship such a tiny sling was between 1/3-1/2". It was the last one in stock so i got a credit

Yep, I've seen Ben ship this way before. It's a shame he's costing spiders their lives and himself money just bc he doesn't wanna take the extra minute to do it correctly. :rolleyes:

Sent from my SCH-I435 using Tapatalk

If you can't ship an animal right, I question if they can take care of them at all.

Mike, I'm thinking that female is due for a molt. So dull compared to the male.

Beautiful spiders, man! I am slowly falling in love with tarantuals and I think they might be taking over parts of my shelves soon!

Sorry if the pics are small. All I have for a camera is a phone lol.:)

Definetly. I got my second T from petco and when I got home I learned they had broke his legs in the process of boxing him up... I tried to nurse him back but he couldn't hunt and the slightest vibrations caused him to have a fit of pain. 4 legs broken by people who weren't trained to do thier jobs. In my experience that is a typical petco.

I've kept inverts for the better part of my life. Got my first rosea when I was a kid. Had that girl for 10+ years then gave her to my niece who loved her for the next 10 years or so until she finally passed after ~20 years in human care(she was an adult when we acquired her - almost certainly wild caught). She was a sweetheart but the only cool rosea I ever owned, the rest have been demon spawn.

I'd like to get back into inverts some day but I'll probably stick with old world tarantulas. When I was younger the hairs never phased me but over the years I've become more sensitive to them. I had a small crawshayi that I sold when she was around 2 inches and still kick myself over that one. She was a terrible display animal but the most fun during feeding time.

Never took many pictures but I have a couple of the last batch of inverts I raised. The tarantulas were probably 2nd or 3rd instar when I got them - itty bitty. I typically kept my inverts bone dry for all but the biggest humidity lovers - they got corner and hide mists daily.
