I always choose slings over juvies & adults, and if it is possible, I always go for the smallest, which is less than an inch size.
Yes, there are many cons like: it’s too fragile, there’s no guarantee for a female, it takes forever to grow, but regardless of any pros and cons out there, by getting a small sling, you get to watch it grow! This is simply the best experience possible you get to have, period.
Molt after molt, it changes it’s size, it’s color, it’s characteristic, it’s behavior. It’s just SO amazing to watch it grow day by day, week by week, month by month.
I highly recommend to get a sling whenever you get a chance to, and watch it grow!
Below photos are two of my earlier tarantulas I got as slings, then and now.
• Brachypelma hamorii
• Brachypelma baumgarteni
