Phlogius goliath AF

She 4 years old now, this pic was taken not 10 minutes after rehousing her
Is that what my K2 will look like as an adult if it's a female?! Holy crap she's beautiful ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ’ž
Some specimens of any Phlogius sp. get that post molt blue colouration, but IME most don't. It only lasts for a month or so most times, but one species new to the hobby (Phlogius sp. blue) is supposed to stay much more blue for much longer

Is that the Blue Legged Tarantula, or a completely different sp.? (Jezus I'm soooo hoping you gonna reply with "Yes, it's the Blue Legged...., Why do you ask!?๐Ÿค”". C'mon destiny, give daddy a DBL luck whammy ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ™๐Ÿคž๐ŸŽฒ

Regrettably no, not the same as pq113/blue leg, I have no idea where that name came from but it's not true at all that pq113 are any more likely to be blue. I fell for the same mistake when I started out ๐Ÿ˜” Phlogius kuttabul seems to regularly gain a purplish shine after a molt, that's pretty much the only species I can somewhat confidently say often is a tad more colourful than most

Oh man!!! ๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ซ๐Ÿ˜ญ Luck be a harsh B*"#h! Falling for a common misconception didn't exactly help my cause either ๐Ÿค”.
