New Grammostola species ....ID???

[SSW.com]

We imported a few of these new Grammostola species and they look very nice ...and similar to G. pulchra but have Gold and or Silver hairs....very nice looking spiders. Here is a pic of a freshly molted female. Any ideas what it might be?

Can it be g.grossa?:? I have a few grossas and they look similar to yours, so I think grossa.

That is identical to the spider I picked up recently, which had been brought into a pet shop by a guy desparate for cash. He told the shop owner(who has an extensive T collection of his own)that it was a G. pulchra, though the shop owner was not so sure. It DOES appear to be a Grammostola, but like your spider, has those silvery hairs everywhere-not brown, like my big G. pulchra girl when she's in bad need of a moult, but silver, almost whitish. I've had two other G. pulchras from reliable captive-bred sources that were in this size range, but they did not have any silver hairs on them at all but were already black. In sunlight, my spider almost looks blue, like a blue Pit Bull or a blue roan horse. It is not aggressive at all, but it is very skittish, unlike my other G. pulchras(though I did have one that was very aggressive).

Will you be selling them?

 

[priZZ]

I have 3 of them became them as G. mollicoma but they just look like what it's called G. sp. "Formosa".

It is just G. pulchra.

 

[priZZ]

It is just G. pulchra.

Why do You think it's pulchra? Does pulchra have white hairs?

 

[jw73]

No it hasn't. I didn't notice white hairs at this photo.

Look at this young pulchra.
