[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 152880, member: 26980"] Any Lasiodora, any Brachyopelma, any Acanthoscurria species or a juvenile C versicolor if you want to do an arboreal will result in a positive introduction to the hobby. These are mostly fast growing, with the exception of many brachys, have a great feeding response & you can grow with the spider. C versicolor is a bit more delicate & requires NO extra humidity + lots of ventilation, which can be a bit of a hassle to set up, but this was my very first one personally. Having said that, they are nothing short of spectacular. Some brachys grow slowly so pick the size you actually want. B vagans however doesn't have that problem. [ATTACH=full]38238[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]38239[/ATTACH] Versicolor goes through a lot of different colors as they grow. Both males and females are brilliant and fairly similar. [ATTACH=full]38240[/ATTACH] Of course, B hamorii is a classic but Samaria turned out to be a Samuel. [ATTACH=full]38241[/ATTACH] This is Justina, my L klugi. She eats like a garbage disposal, the destroyer!! With Lasiodora species, always give them a larger then normal hide so they don't get defensive. They'll almost never use it, but when they get spooked, you'll be glad they have it. [/QUOTE]
