Is this a true B. vagans? I purchased this girl about two years ago. At first she looked like any other Brachypelma vagans, but once she hit the three inch mark, I noticed she had long, red setae and small spines on her back legs (like M. robustum). She also became very defensive towards anything
This does look like a likely hybrid of B. vagans and B. albopilosum. The pure vagans has usually redder setae than this on the abdomen and the longish hairs on the rear legs look a little bit more like albopilosum (hobby form). Nobody will be able to tell for sure, though, but I would agree this does not look like a pure vagans.
