Help to identify

[Slinglife]

Hi Everyone
I am new to the forums and new to keeping as well. I am 44 and in January I got my 1st 4 tarantulas from fear not.
Well I was in petco getting crickets And ended up picking up another T. I felt bad for it. Nobody there had any clue what it was hoping that somebody can help me
Looks like a B.boehemi but the Carapus looks lighter.
Any help would be appreciated

Looks like Brachypelma emilia and it's either in premolt or has flicked it's butt clean of hairs

I agree to disagree on this one. I do not think she is in premolt yet as the belly skin should have started to darken from the new set of hair growing beneath. I think it was a T stressed and moved around a lot at the pet store who ended up flicking all her urticating hair from being bothered.
It has some similarity with a B. Emilia but the lack of the black triangular patch on her eyes makes me question it.
My vote goes to a bohemi

I forgot the most important my friend, welcome to the hobby and this great forum/family.

This is my B. emilia— I’m also thinking yours may be a B.bohemi

Tank you very much i appreciate it. I do believe she was stressed out there was a bunch of kids tapping on the enclosure that day i picked her up. But also in pre molt because no longer pink all black. im just waiting to wake up and find a molt any day now.
Thank you for welcoming me and helping with The identity crisis lol

High possibility of it being a hybrid (bohemi, baumgarteni). This is common because hobbiest can't correctly identify them. Best to wait till it gets closer to the adult size to have it examined by a expert.

Just an update guys. I woke up to a molt.
I have read it's good to keep the molt in the cage for a couple of days. From what i understand they drink the nutrients left behind. But this one has already put the molt next to the water dish

You don't need to leave in there...I grab mine sometimes before they flip back over. It has a water dish, it will be fine.

I grab them when it will stress the T the least, sometimes before they flip, sometimes after
