Which Aphonopelma species is this?

Mez · May 12, 2011

Sp. New River I think. Heres another, its about to flip back..

Very sweet. I don't have any Aphonopelma as of yet, but if I get one it'll either be an A. "sp. New River" or an A. hentzi for sure.

All done!

I have no idea, this was a pet shop buy, a Brazilian Blonde, apparently! I've had it about 5 months or so and has been in premolt for the last two.

So, does this look like A. sp. 'New River' to you guys?
