[QUOTE="Tortoise Tom, post: 140875, member: 27883"] My joke was going to be Theraphosa stirmi, but it just won't be funny now... Welcome to the forum and to the hobby! Two of my favorites that meet all your criterion are Grammostola pulchra and Grammostola pulchripes. I also like the Brachypelma species, but I find the Grammostola less apt to kick urticating hairs. When it finally came down to it, my daughter and I picked G. pulchripes for her first tarantula. My daughter is almost 12 now and she loves her spider. We just fed the big girl and gave her fresh water tonight. Let us know what you get, and post pics of your new tarantula! [/QUOTE]
