Spot on G. Rosea abdomen?

[Andiness]

Can anyone tell me what this spot is on my G. Rose's abdomen? She's had it for the whole 3 years that I've had her, and kept it through a molt. She doesn't flick, and it didn't just reappear after a while post molt, it was just still there.

Ts sometimes lay hairs down in there web it just looks like a bald patch from kicking, you’re not watching it 24/7 I assume so you can’t really say it doesn’t kick hairs.

Grammostola species have very large mirror patches of urticating hairs that are very obvious. The urticating hairs are a different composition to the rest of their hairs and they reflect light differently - that is why it is called a 'mirror' patch.
I can't really tell by the quality of the photo, but I am assuming that is what you're referring to. They have it all the time and that is actually a physical trait that makes it easier to identify Grammostola species on a whole, although other species also have very prominent mirror patches.
Does it look like this? Is this what you're referring to?

Thank you!!!! I was so worried about my girl!

Considering that I watched her drying off post molt and it was already there, I can be sure that it's not from kicking hairs.

Mirror spot. I sort of hate them -- looks like crusty dandruff or eczema or something gross. Anyway, completely normal.
