[QUOTE="Oursapoil, post: 178084, member: 33266"] I am torn between the two first answers, B and P. As I am taking care of our Ts with my 9 years old son, I had to focus more on the Bs (we have currently 13 different ones) as the are well tempered, quite solid little beasts, stunning to observe and my son even get to hold some of them from time to time (he understand that the least we handle them the better they’ll be). I could do without the itchy hairs but it is a perfect excuse to justify not touching them often. The Bs, except for my vegans who believes she is an BBT (black biting thing), they are all peaceful and I am happy to know their venom is not potent, this is why I am saving the Ps for a few years from now when my son will be a little bit more mature as even if often very docile, they can pack a serious punch on the toxicity level. This said we have a regalis and a metallica but I am the only one allowed to feed them. Time will tell what the little man wants to focus on later on but the important part will be to prioritize raising captive bred species from slings to adult and maybe (if my wife let me live long enough!) get a few to reproduce.
