Hi all.
My friend bought me a tarantula about a year ago for my birthday.
They told me that she is a curly hair but I don't think so.
If any one can identify her I will be grateful!
Here are 2 pictures of here:

Dave, I really think it is a Curly hair. They make great pets as far as tarantulas go. Is he a good eater for you. I have 2 and recently, the larger
one is hiding a lot and molting more frequently. The smaller one is out in
the open waiting for food all the time.

Yeah, why wouldn't you think that was a curly hair? Looks like every other curly hair on the planet and has curly hair, hmmm... there might be a connection
