@viper69 I did read the posts above - I'm not too familiar with B baumgarteni so I was talking in terms of physical characteristics. I've done a bit of googling and the differences I've found involve leg color and dark patterns on the abdomen - but had I not seen this post, I never would have questioned that my Looloo is possibly not a boehmei. The OP knew enough to label this pic "Brachypelma sp." implying that they had doubts about what it actually is - even though it was sold as a boehmei. For example, you mentioned that the colors are either photoshopped or it's a hybrid. Looking at this photo alone, I would just assume boehmei, while that is apparently not the case. That's all.
@Paiige Your question reads like you didn't read the above, no mention about physical traits in your initial question I see what you mean. Post a nice pic of yours, and tag Exoskeleton Invertebrates.
Don't use google as a means of IDing. There's no way to verify the authenticity of the images at all. You're wasting your time really. Post here. When I saw it, I knew it wasn't boehmei, I own an AF, and she doesn't look like that, nor do any other boehmei I've seen hah. It's a gorgeous T, but hybrids are Dangerous to the hobby. I don't support hybridization at all for Ts.
