Correct labeling/naming ? was created by T
As picture below i have 2 A.avic females that are very different in colour. Even the males are different.

I have slings from each female that i need to sell so do i sell them all as avic avic or somehow seperate them to try keep the colours pure ?

Of course being avic avic they are far from pure so any advice/suggestions would be much appreciated :)

99% of the people that buy the slings are not going to remember that its a different colour anyway. If you are sure that they are both Avic avic then I would just sell them as that.

*Or if you wanna make a few extra bucks, sell the one bunch as Avicularia avicularia "copper colour form" :)

If i were going to buy one from you, I would appreciate an explanation regarding why they different yet the same (if that makes sense). Then at least the buyer won't be upset if it isn't what he wants because you've covered yourself in explaining the situation beforehand.

Send me one, i'll hold on to it for a while until it matures :D

Unfortunatly nobody knows what True Avic avic is suppose to look like !!
I did e-mail some UK/US collectors and even they dont know.
Avicularia is beyond messed-up unfortunatly.

The Avicularia genus has been cross bred (Both in captivity and the wild I suspect - Natural hybridization?), so not many people know when they are accidentally crossing 2 different species.
I have heard that they can easily produce viable offspring with different species in the genus. All just hearsay though.
