Thank you so much for your help! I think the link you sent me is a correct ID. Those photos look almost identical to the spider I'm next too.It kindof reminds me of the "desert" carolinensis people have been finding, this one on here is small, 5cm legspan so I can't fathom how it could be an adult. However, it should have adult colors on ventral at that size. https://bugguide.net/node/view/1068211
Otherwise maybe it is lenta, I'm no expert and I think there's a few variations, white for example is common in hobby. Otherwise maybe we're barking up the wrong genus lol. I can say for sure it isn't antelucana or incognita. Personally I've never seen a carolinensis that wasn't typical(central Colorado here), they are completely typical here, grey with jet black ventrals, and no adults I've seen have been under like 3.5"
Awesome! I love to hear it. I'll get on there today or tomorrow. I'll pm you as soon as I have an ID and some Lil guys and we can talk!Definitely optimistic about it, if so that's a really awesome and possibly really rare find, leg pattern is a trip, it's definitely there, but muted. You may want to post these on bugguide or something for confirmation, just try to get really good pics of just the spider from every angle... Good luck with the babies! Definitely keep me posted too, if that's what it really is I would love to have a couple.
