Spot on. Its an adult male, hasn't developed his tibial spurs, find a girl for him. Highly doubt his age being that young, Grammostola are a very slow growing genus at best. Even with "constant" feeding and 80+ degree temps, typically takes 3+ years, to get a male raised from sling to MM. This based on my past breeding projects with the Brachypelma genus. Currently raising 3 slings, 1.5"+, in hopes of a male for breeding with my female. She isn't ready for breeding, >6", hoping for a sac late 2018, if all goes as planned.  FYI, all males in the Grammostola genus have tibial spurs. Once developed, time is limited.
