Hi chrystal,
First off, congrats on your new spider.
I hope I am wrong, but based on the cellphone pic, that spider looks like a mature male to me!
Sorry, but I don't know your experience with T's...but it
looks like the spider has enlarged bulbous pedipalps and tibial spurs?
If it is a MM(mature male) and he has tibial spurs, then that spider is definitely not a T.blondi.
A MM T.blondi does not have the tibial spurs.
If it is a mature male with spurs, it might be a T.apophysis?
Better pics will help id the MM spider
Not sure on the size of a MM blondi vs MM apophysis(never seen one), but the
the MM blondis I have seen are massive, 20 - 25cm!The spider on your hand doesn't look so big.
Then again, the size of a MM can vary quite a lot!I have had a L.parahybana male mature at 15cm and another one at 21 cm!
I hope I am wrong!Hate it when people are taken for a ride with male spiders sold as females!!
Hope it's just a bad pic, please try get a better pic if you can
Cheers
I attached an image of your pic,
the red circles showing what looks like tibial spurs and
the blue circles showing the enlarged bulbous pedipalps.
