Help trying to identify a T

02-04-11, 08:48 PM

Hi there guys and gals, my local t shop has a little beaut that a cust brought in... this guy reckons its a chilean rose (Grammostola rosea) but we, the guy in the shop n I, dont think it is and we're trying to figure out what it could be. Just chilling in its tank its about the size of my palm but when walking I'd imagine its legs would be a bit more gangly

I must admit that my first thought when I saw this was Brachypelma sp.
