Chile Rose Tarantula - Grammastola cala

The Chilean Rose is one of the most common species kept in captivity. Though there is alot of confusion over its name. The tarantula shown above is in fact a Chilean Common (Grammastola cala) though in the pet trade it is often called the Chilean Rose. The real Chilean Rose (Grammastola rosea) is very similar though, as its name suggests, is either bright red or pink in colour. Many other pet shops claim that their Chilean Commons are Grammastola rosea but we know better!

Their docile temperament and affordable price makes them extremely popular. It is very rare to come across an aggresive Chile Rose.
