Rehousing Tarantula

[anthonysimon191]

Hey everyone,

I'm about to rehouse a tarantula from someone and wanted to know its species and sex. The original owner mentioned having it for 6 years and it was a Rose Hair but wasn't completely sure on species/sex. I appreciate everyone's knowledge and I am excited to join this hobby!

Best!

Hello Anthony and welcome to this great forum.
By the nickname and the look of your T I would say it is a Grammostola rosea. If it is indeed 6 years old, as it doesn't show hooks or boxing gloves, it is pretty fair to say this is a female.

I second the G. porteri based on the overall coloration.
