Re: Considering a T

He is right. I have a B. smithi and that is a good species to start with. I had a Grammostola rosea that had a temper comparable to an OBT, but most are pretty laid back. Always test their mood with a paintbrush before you let them crawl on you. You will get a threat pose if they are not in the mood. Most of the Brachypelmas are pretty laid back, but there is a select few that can be temperamental. Get something laid back for your first T. That way you can get used to a tarantulas behavior. A lot of mine are pretty mean so they are never handled. They are manipulated into catch cups for cage maintenance.
