Help with 2 curly's (don't look the same) was created by Ulindi
:S Hi everyone, okay im new and just bought my firts two tarantula's about two weeks ago, they are growing like stars:laugh: but however yesterday i noticed that one of them moulded but not the other and they are both curly's (at least that was what the petshop owner tagged their "houses") Born on the 1st of November 2010, but they dont look the same at all, one is smaller and darker almost with a blue colour and the other is bigger and more pink in colour... can it be two curly's or perhaps a mix up can anyone please help me....
Nobody's a natural. You work hard to get good and then work hard to get better.

Can you post some pictures of them?

I have 3 Brachypelma albopilosum tarantulas (curlies) and the one is also darker than the other two. Some specimens just vary slightly on colour sometimes. But if it has the beige carapace with long curly hair on it's legs, then it is a curly.

Might be pre-molt.
tarantulas turn dark before the molt.
Was the 2cm one also dark before molting?
