Sorry yeah difficult to get a decent photo ... Are these any better

Just want to make sure I'm looking after it properly...

This is the set up

I think its a darker togo as well. I have a vietnam blue tarantula, its purple. Color can vary quite a bit.

It’s Pterinochilus chordatus.

It will need much more substrate as it is a burrowing species.

looks like a thai tiger https://www.bing.com/images/search?...608028953472798716&selectedIndex=0&ajaxhist=0

That's very similar . Btw H. mac is short for Heteroscodra maculata(togo starburst baboon) to be clear for anyone trying to learn Latin names. Which I can't stress enough how important it is to use scientific names when possible . Although everyone here probably already knows all that.

 

[Logan D]

I believe its Haplopelma sp. "Vietnam" latin name for it but common name is thai tiger

Those picture are too blurry for me to comment im a total bro scientist. It's either that or the P. Chordatus. I thought I seen black eye marks on one picture which would make it P.chordatus.

 

[KezyGLA]

Its Pterinochilus chordatus. 100%

After doing a fair bit of research into the differences of P.Murinus DCF (dark colour form) and being the owner of two P.Chordatus', I agree with @KezyGLA about P.chordatus. look at my previous post and compare the two photos to yours.
