If I whack up a pic could I get your thoughts?
Sure, I'm no expert mind

Can get better pics if necessary. To me it looks like a Brachypelma albopilosa. I'm sure the experts will be able to shed some light on this for me.

Yep thats a curly hair lol 100% Brachypelma albopilosum

I'd vote on that other spider being parahybana. klugi have very red abdomens. It's possible it's male... get some piccies up of inside the moult

Only REAL way to tell is if that spider is female, and go by the spermathecae, as parahybana and klugi are different.

Damn it! I've been pwned :P They do seem a bit touchy but maybe it was just my imagination. Shall get onto that lady and see what she has to say for herself.

They were a free gift from a breeder as I know her friend's son. Wanted something that would grow big but she didn't have any Goliaths so she said she would give me a couple of parahybana slings and hope that I get a female out of the two.
