Nice looking rosey. You are braver then I am, I hate how my hand reacts to the urticating hairs I couldn't imagine if my face or eye got them.

We had one when I worked at hospice, a man had it and ied and he wanted me to care for it till he died and he would warn me how fragile they were. I plan on just handling her on the ground

That was my first reaction.

G. rosea hairs typically don't bother folks and they rarely kick hairs (never actually known of one that did). That along with a normally placid attitude makes them the common "gateway drug" into tarantula collecting. ;)
