I got this at a pet shop. They had it labeled as a P. Murinus (lol) but it looks like a H. Gigas but she let me handle her and didn't even hiss which as I understand it is uncharacteristic for H. Gigas. What is this species???
In that lighting it seems more C. Crawshayi-ish... if it turns a dark gray/black in the next molt I'd say H. Gigas is a good bet though... Multiple photos would help...

i can tell because i have got good experience with tarantulas. the coloration and the build fit the species. also the genus is rather small and h gigas are easier to get. the H hercules is black.
Rick, it's obvious by the shape of the ruler and the way his hand turns pink when he holds the T and the fact that those are Levi's (you can tell by the blue coloration) that this species is definitely H. gigas. We all had a good laugh that you didn't see the obvious! (snicker, snicker) :razz:
