I found a neat little spider on my floor. I live in Vail, CO. I posted it in the tarantula section thinking it was some fluke spiderling of my king baboon. The pros there informed me otherwise, so I thought I would post it in this section and see if I can get it an ID. I attached a picture. He is very thirsty as he is drinking the water soaked paper towel ball i made for him. Any thoughts on an ID?

like i said earlier, maybe a D. crocata or even T. tranquillus. hard to tell for 100% sure from that pic. i would put bets on crocata though b/c it was in CO.

actually looks more like a mygalomorph.. could it be a wandering male trapdoor spider?
