Whats that?

[Exoskeleton Invertebrates]

His spider is Grammostola sp. "Northern Type" not Grammostola rosea. Wait until she/he molts it will look prettier than what it looks like now. So yes what others have said sp. "North" "Northern Gold". You just cotta figure out what color variant you have once it molts.

I am extremely confused now

I am extremely confused now

What are you confused about?

 

[Robert123456]

What are you confused about?

Because now I dont know what i have, i mean, she doesnt look like a north, because her hairs (legs) are more light brown rather than white, but the legs are definetly lighter than the rest of her body, i dont think she has any white, her whole body is brown and she barely has any pink on the caparace, she definetly isnt a g rosea (RCF) and i dont even know what the difference between the porteri and rosea is

 

[Exoskeleton Invertebrates]

Forget about all that don't get yourself confuse. I told you wait until it molts than you'll know what color variant of the "Northern" you have.

Grammostola porteri, rosea etc. throw does names to the thrash. You're trying to ID a tarantula that has not had a fresh molt. I know what species you have I deal with them every single day I know what I'm looking at.

Be patient.

So "North" and "Northern Gold" are different? What color variants are there for this T?

Once she molts i'll post a picture so that somebody can help me out with the color variant

Well that's easy when it molts compare it to this photos.

@Exoskeleton Invertebrates wow, the first and last are extremely beautiful, and are they all grammostola sp. North? Is every picture a different individual?
And if had to say, the third spider is the one i think resembles my T the most

Yes they are all individuals and are Grammostola sp. "Northern Type".

 

[Venom1080]

are these color morphs undescribed species? or are they the same species but from different areas?

 

[Exoskeleton Invertebrates]

All imported as Grammostola sp. "Northern Type". Where exactly were collected beats me??????? And yes so far they are undescribed.

[cold blood]

Different stages in the molt cycle....which is why you were told to wait for the next molt.

I posted photos of 6 different females roughly about the same size. Yes they are the "Northern Type". All six females with different appearance that all of you can see.

 

[Robert123456]

Thanks! Thats really helpful, and i guess I just have to wait and see if she looks like any of those tarantulas @Exoskeleton Invertebrates

 

[Robert123456]

@Exoskeleton Invertebrates You wont believe this but I think this is my lucky day, guess who decided to molt today? Yes, my T, she is her back now, so im hoping that by the time I wake up she is done, I'll compare with the pics, and i'll also post one as well, btw, is it normal for T's to lay on their backs for a long time without starting the molt? By that I mean: She flipped on her back, and she has been like that for hours, the caparace hasnt popped or anything, is that normal or should I be worried?

 

[Marijan2]

perfectly normal, until it takes over 24 hours

Thanks! She already started, and as far as i can tell she is doing a pretty good and fast job

Don't disturb her for at least two weeks from now make sure there is a water in her wate dish. Double check the molt for confirmation of being a female.
