This mature female was sold to me as an ornamental baboon (heteroscodra maculata) but upon closer inspection I’m almost sure she’s a feather leg baboon (stromatopelma calceatum) but would like verification. So, is this a heteroscodra maculata or a stromatopelma calceatum?
That's a mature male H. mac. If I were you I'd believe Kezy - he's one of the biggest breeders in Europe. But that's not even necessary. The pattern, body shape, long, feathery legs, everything just screems mature male H. mac. Emboli in H. mac can be very difficult to make out.
I'm sorry you bought it as a female - it still is a mature male.
