Rose Hair Tarantulas or Chilean Rose Hair

Filed Under: General Care

Capable of calmly walking over the hands of screaming, squirrelly kids without being fazed, the Chilean rose hair or rose hair tarantula (Grammastola rosea) is one of the calmest and hardiest tarantulas in the pet trade.

The rose hair tarantula’s natural habitat is the desert and scrub regions of Chile, Bolivia, and Argentina.
