What a pretty girl! I've never heard of the species before, she doesn't look like she has stinging hairs at all, does she?
Thank you :) She's at her most striking now that her coat is fresh. Like most new world tarantulas she has urticating hairs. It's more noticeable right before molting as she will get a noticeable bald spot on her abdomen. I've never seen her use them though, she prefer just running away, which is also what the species is known for.
It's been a decade since I last checked up the market, but it's a relatively rare species that can only be bought through breeders. They are closely related to their much more famous "cousin" Chilean Rose/Grammostola Rosea
