Hey everyone!
just got my first spider a week ago and they are amazing creatures. I have a query about what type of tarantula i have! I bought it from the spider shop, and its the Grammostola sp. "North" Northern Gold (6-7cm) juvenile! I only bought it rather than the traditional rosea because i preferred the colour and from what i have read the Grammostola sp. "North" Northern Gold are slightly more active feeding wise and they are both for novice keepers. The spider i got is completely different in colour, (its grey) from the picture on the website but i thought that as it molts and gets bigger it may would change. However i was doing some research and came across this website
and that is my spider, not the one on the spider shop website. I then read a previous thread saying on here saying there was a difference between the sp north and northern gold?? I m just confused as to what spider i have as i said earlier i just really liked its colour and although that may sound silly its what caught my eye.
Does anyone know if it will grow into something similar to the 'gold tinged' one on the spidershop website??
thanks in advance guys really appreciated
