T. blondi or T. stirmi?

[hartnett]

I purchased a T. blondi from ReptileCity in FL. $200 basically, arrived today. This is the spider that showed up. I do not believe this is a T. blondi (no hair on the Patella, none). What are your thoughts? Thanks for any input.

Indeed it’s a stirmi. Most reptile places don’t do spiders well. If you want a true blonde you’re better off buying from someone who specializes in spiders. Good luck!

T. Stirmi...sorry you paid an extra $100 for that stirmi.

Thanks folks. I'll keep this one in a nice environment and well fed labelled T. stirmi.
