Surprise mail, unknown T

Hey! Might sound weird but I received an anonymous package in the mail today. To my surprise (and happiness) it was a T.. I have no idea what it is.. At first I suspected a juvenile G. Rosie or Aphonopelma chalcodes (Arizona Blonde). Can anyone help me identify it? :) Thanks
Looks like genus Brachypelma to me perhaps B. vagans juvenile, I would swap that sub for ecoearth or untreated potting soil.
 
@Flexzone Thanks, will do, this was just what I had on hand because it came unexpected and I had no idea what type it was :)
Going to do some reading and researching on those types you both have suggested :)
 
@lunarae It was pretty unexpected! But we suspect one seller that sold us 5 slings recently, similar handwriting, but not sure. Haven't gotten a hold of him yet and I didn't order an extra one... This is all so bizarre, but also very enjoyable XD
 
Congratulations! Seems pretty nice to get a free T!

Are those bark chips/mulch the T is on?
 
@bryverine No it's coconut husk, but I've now moved the T to another home with a better substrate I hope, although it does hang on the walls a lot.. The substrate is kind of divided now, with one end more humid than the other, so hopefully it'll feel ok at least until I know for sure what kind of T it is.. I'm leaning towards B.Vagans at the moment but still there are some others who also look very similar.
