Do you know Tarantulas? Please help identify!! was created by Marcel Liebenberg
Good Day to you all. I was hoping I can get some ideas. I recently obtained a small Tarantula. It was sold to me as a Brazillian White Knee, but I am not so sure. Might be a Brazillian Red and White (not sure of scientific names). I am attaching photos for you to look it.
The first photos is right after I got her 3 weeks ago.
The second photo was taken just before it molted
The third photo was taken a couple of days ago - after molting.

Lets see who knows there spiders!!!

I concur.
It is Brazilian and it has white on it.
To avoid confusion, best would be to use scientific names asap. :)
