True, they are not aggressive at all...if she wants sone like that, the baboons are the way to go...Usumbara oranges are great, but tend to hid too much.

Glad to hear your pet ban has been lifted!

New Ts are always an excellent choice But the question always remains: Which one to get next?!

Look around and pick what attracts you most is what I suggest! Don't set any specific criteria such as more aggressive. Many species fall in an in-between category of skittish, flighty and defensive so aren't catogorized as "aggressive".

I just got a nice lasiodora parahybana (Brazilian salmon pink), a second grammostola aureostriata (Chaco Golden Knee) along with some cute a. avic and a. seemanni slings.

I had a kick with more aggressive species but it has lessened quite a bit and my focus is back on more docile species. Pretty and aggressive spiders tend to hide A LOT! I never see my Cobalt and Usumbara! I only get to see the legs of my Feather leg and unfortunately, I just recently lost my Indian Ornamental...

Anyways, the added stress that comes with dealing with such species is keeping me from getting many more. I'll stay with those that I have and maybe replace the ornamental that I lost but otherwise I am focusing on my collection of aphonopelmas, avicularias and brachypelmas.

Great spider. Once you put it in its container, it WILL burrow, and you will probably never get a good look at it again
Well, maybe when its time for a larger enclosure

T. blondi arent colourful, but they are big, dont web a lot, and tend to not attempt burrowing in captivity(at least not to any degree)....just give them a hide and LOTS of food. Oh yeah, they are usually fairly cheap as well

I found a versicolor in a pet store and couldn't find any information on them! Do you have any good care sheets on them or know of any good sites to go to?
