I believe you should try the most difficult gruesome one out there, since if you start easy and progress, a lot of people then realize tarantulas aren't for them.  Resulting in the market being flooded with unwanted tarantulas, and people going in and out of the hobby. I say shock your system, and see if its for you. Its like buying a motorcycle, buying small is safer i disagree. You would take chances on the small one, when you get the larger one try the same and kablam accident. Same with T'S, try handling your ornamental like your others and think how different could it be. So I would love to see your views, have fun.</blockquote>
