So my local pet store has a "pinktoe" for sell but it's not like the two others they have. Is it possible to identify this little beauty?

Nvm. From what I can tell browsing the forum here it's an avic avic. I just hadn't seen them with the orange on their abdomen before

Avicularia, just like many other genera, are a messed up, cross bred and poorly described genus in this hobby. So is Aphonapelma, Pamphobeteus, Phormictopus, and many others..but yeah, looks like an A avic sling. Cute little guy.

Edit, there is hope though, taxonomists are revising and better describing these genera, props to them. A tip of the hat, ladies and gents.
