[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 136641, member: 26980"] The calmer starter pokies can be good second arboreals once you get your current Avic figured out. I've had few if any behavioral issues with any of mine. As with many of the more exuberant species, starting with a larger sling or a small juvenile is the best way to go. That way, you can grow with your tarantula & you won't have to spend quite as much money to buy it. Aside from my 4 B sabulosum slings, my P striata is my calmest tarantula. The 2 P vittata slings have somewhat different personalities with the suspect male being much more reclusive then the suspect female is. Still, none of them are mean or antisocial spiders. Just remember, the slower you move the slower the tarantula moves & you'll be fine. Unpacking and rehousing the Ts should be done within a large tote within a very open area or a bathtub with all the drains blocked. Other popular second arboreals are from the Psalmopeous species such as P pulcher for example. Either way, wait until you're completely comfortable with the basics. [/QUOTE]
