Aphonopelma Gabelli??? Was sold to me as a Tanzanian black and tan Baboon. Lol. I thought A chalcodes so did a knowledgeable breeder I know. The more I mess with her I think gabelli now.
WC female A. gabeli have been circulating recently, and that's what it looks like to me. I picked one up in late August - see pics of her here: https://arachnoboards.com/threads/any-new-additions.293285/post-3418527
Thanks I got her back in very early June its possible she's wild caught but she's in perfect shape so I kinda don't think so bcus they said they'd had her for months and she's a little too pretty for WC to me but who knows. Shops can be shady and this one is one I wont go back to for multiple reasons like that.

I just meant it looks like A. gabeli, not necessarily wild caught. Although, it's highly likely she was WC at some point, just maybe not recently - these are rarely if ever bred in captivity because they're abundant and easy to catch in the wild, and raising hundreds and hundreds of 1/8" slings to 2i isn't really worth it given how cheap you'd have to sell them. She's in good shape and pretty for sure, though. 👍 And she is definitely not an E. olivacea, 😆.
