Female. The tell-tale 'moustache' of contrasting white hairs at the furrow is typical of this species... as well as females from the other species in the Tliltocatl and Brachypelma genera.
This species has been moved to genus Tliltocatl recently... just an fyi.
Yeah, I knew the genus change, I just got so use to Brachypelma that it’s kinda stuck lol. And thank you both for the info! I have several of the curly hairs so I will use that info to try and identify the others as well. Do you know what size they usually start getting that mustache of white hairs?
