[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 131311, member: 26980"] Practically any brachy species is good as a large juvenile or sub adult. B vagens grows quickly and looks good so larger spiderlings are a viable choice. Personally if I had to buy mine all over again easiest to most challenging, I'd start with my Lasiodora Klugi. Any member of the Lasiodora genus will grow fast, eat consistently and are fairly hardy needing no real special climate conditions. Frog moss and a little additional moisture are appreciated however. LP slings and juveniles can even be purchased for under $20 and most attain an 8" leg span. Acanoscurria species are also awesome for much of the same reasons as Lasiodora species are. If for some reason you insist on handling, pink zebra beauties or curly hairs can commonly be handled. Having said that, it's a needless risk and a paintbrush, catch cup and lid are your best friends. If you want to do an arboreal, consider C versicolor, which is one of the most beautiful spiders on Earth or the pink toe. These guys have a much steeper learning curve. C versicolor was my very first one, somewhat chaotic. [/QUOTE]
