Welcome!

We would definitely need a clearer and likely more close up pic to even begin attempting to ventrally sex this one.

That Info is inaccurate. G rosea do not display sexual dimorphism prior to maturity. However, being purchased from a pet store it is very likely you have a wild caught specimen, and judging by size, may well be female.
