She was sold to me as A. hentzi, she has freshley molted. At one point I thought she might be an anax. I've never kept one of those, but I have kept a few hentzi before. She looks different, but I digress I haven't kept any aphonopelma in years now. Any thoughts?
A. hentzi can be pretty variable across their range. I think A. anax is considered to be part of the "Hentzi Complex", along with armada, moderatum, & gabeli, so it's certainly possible that someone had an anax and misidentified it as a hentzi. It's not likely that you'll ever get a definitive answer on which one it is, but @AphonopelmaTX might have some more useful info than I've got.
