In tarantulas, is there such thing as "cross breed"? I mean can tarantula be cross breed to another different species? Just curious.

Yeah, it's been happening in the hobby for years. That's why there is no "real" Pink Toes knocking about now. They are all mixed species. Same thing with the Hystocrates genus. A load of the babies end up infertile so it really isnt worth doing anyway.

ah so example you can breed M. balfouri and G. pulchra? or it must be in the same genus like E.cyanognathus and E. uatuman?

Yeah, it needs to be in the same genus. That's why all the Avic's are mixed

Not all same- genus spiders will mate though.
