Approx 4.5" Aphonopelma Seemanni

Adopted: 8/1/2022 as an unsexed wild caught adult. Last molt: 1/24/2023. Unable to retrieve molt from burrow. Potentially about to molt soon so I might be able to retrieve this one to confirm. Also unable to properly measure T. Approx 4.5"-5".
I'm petty sure it's a female, but it'll be interesting to hear what you find next time it molts.

As soon as I can retrieve a molt I’ll update this thread! I think a molt is coming up soon - she(?) completely renovated her tunnel system, made it bigger, and secured her burrow entrances and the top layer of substrate with more web. I got a look at her abdomen, and the urticating hairs are starting to be patchy, similar to how it looked when I first got her. And I think I see some darkening of her abdomen.
