Looks like mine, but "she" looks like a "he" looking at the abdomen, but I know that means nothing until you see the molt.

It's entirely possible that this one is male. The pet shop guy didn't sound too confident when I asked it's sex! XD Could it also be that it's just young? It has a 4 in leg span and I read that Roses can grow up to 6

It pretty much all depends on sex. They're great though, I adore my G.rosea.

A T's abdomen size doesn't indicate male or female. Only way to sex a rose hair is via a ventral pic or examining the exuviae.

And it looks like Grammostola sp. Northern Gold to me, which is usually labeled as a rose hair. @Exoskeleton Invertebrates can give you a better answer.

Grammostola sp. 'northern type'.
Theres a 50/50 chance thats female. Looking at this photo

Is "sp." short for something?

@Tuskle sp. stands for species. The reason for it is either, it has never been properly identified or we just don't know what the species might be.
