A very wise and good friend of mine once said:

To my knowledge there is no such thing as a brachypelma albopilosum sp. blue, it stops at brachypelma albopilosum. I'm not saying that what you are seeing isn't true, all I'm saying is that is not a pure species, thus ending my thoughts with hybrid.

Come to think of it, I have a B.albopilosum "orange form". Its very aggressive though and was sold to me as a Brazilian black and white.
If you want, we can try breed them and see what comes of it?

I didn't say its a bad idea?

i asked, did not say it is....

I do not condone hybridization, its unhealthy for the spiders and in the end it will just cause harm to them and the hobby. As with dogs you can see what will happen if such practices are continued. Abnormalities and problems will occur. This is just my opinion and not scientific fact
