Is this P.Sabah Red or P.Rufus?

Is this P.Sabah Red or P.Rufus? ( Adult pic)
even I have seen it with my eyes but since I don’t have much experience like you guys ,why I should not ask? in case my P.rufus is not P.rufus like this P.sabah red is it better to check with you guys here? And what a reason for cross-breeder to post their pic on this group bruh🥱😮💨 just want to ask for help to identify the species though.I dc that you gonna believe me or not, I just don’t want NMTs to misunderstanding me since I always ask for his advice😑
Hey, it's all good - you are doing the right thing by asking. In future it would be better to do this checking before breeding, but it is what it is. You're confident the male and female are the same species, just not sure which species they are... You'll have to decide what to do about slings if you get to that point - she may not even give you a sac, so no point in worrying about that now.

@Charliemum - I've communicated with @DbleCbhatana several times before and he's always been good about trying to do the right thing. I'm sure he'll make good decisions here, too. 👍

Eloquently put @NMTs and if you say he is good then I trust your judgement.

@DbleCbhatana I am sorry for being suspicious, yes it is right to check but as the king of t gender n tiny moults said next time Research before mating, no good dealer will buy Phormingochilus sp ? slings . Research first breeding after, I know its exciting and we all have the dream of one day breeding our t's but gots to be patient and Research first n never breed t's unless your 100% on what they are.
Gl in your future endeavours.
 
Can someone clarify the genera being discussed here? I’m assuming Phormingochilus, but there has never been a species named Phormingochilus rufus. There has been a Psalmopoeus rufus, but that was considered a synonym of Psalmopoeus pulcher.

Op wasn't sure if he has Phormingochilus sp rufus or Phormingochilus sp sabah red
Idk about other countries but both of these sp are sold here in the uk, appeared in the shops about 6 months ago.
