This guy was given to me about a week ago.
I have a few ideas on what it could be.
I just want other peoples opinion.

I would say it's MOST likely A.sp peru purple.
That would be my best guess since I don't keep many avics (hard time keeping them alive as slings :()

I's sway more towards it possibly being Avicularia huriana although trying to ID many Avicularia via photographs is flawed IMO.

I know photo ID is tough, but I was just curious of what other people thought.

FYI-Avicularia huriana have no blue and Avicularia laeta are a pretty uniform brown, so I'm not sure where an expert Avicularia keeper would get those ideas based upon the OP's photo.

I honestly couldn't say which species is pictured based upon the photo alone. With a few exceptions, members of this genus are too difficult to attempt to ID with only a photo. It's only easy to say what it could not be. Good like with the ID, Chris.

i took 1 look

and i can ID this avic for you !! may not be accurate but will be the closest ID youll get

simple, its an Avicularia Sp "Guyana"

^^ that i can assure you is the closest ID you will get.

As for Avicularia laeta

id like to show you the diffrence here with my juvi laeta





you can clearly see there is no comparison with the avics, my specamin here is Avicularia laeta, the OP specamin i can assure you can only be labeld as "Avicularia Sp", "Avicularia Sp Guyana" at a push
