Whoops, can you post anothercouple of pics of the "cinnamon" butnot so close so they might be a bit more in focus?, it could be A seemani or an Aphonopelma sp or??

i had the wrong settings on my digi, so got better pics of the both.
I dont think it's a A. Semmanni as it hasn't got the stripes on the legs but still an Aphonopelma.

While i was at it i got a better photo of the "stripe knee"




As you can see there are no leg markings.

Slightly better pics

OK, I'd say the first was Aphonopelma sp. and probably seemanni. A. seemanni has a wide range and therefore a wide colour/regional variation. The specimens with the more distinct white leg markings originate from Costa Rica and IME, the less marked ones (such as yours) originate from Guatemala. Whether they're exactly the same thing is unknown so for now, label it Aphonopelma sp.
I agree with Ray on the second, Hommeoma sp. Blue Peru.

Cheers,
put my mind at rest knowing what they are.
Are they hard to come by as i know somewhere that has got 1 in, so i dont want to miss the oppertunity in a possible pair.
The reason i want to know is, i would like to try and breed t's that you dont get very often, as well as keeping the species going.

Was browsing the web and came across this pic, i would have to agree that it could be a A. Seemanni Guatemala.
Here's the site i found it i'm going off the 2nd pic.
