I was browsing www.scottstarantulas.com and while reading the gallery entry on the B. smithi, I noticed it said, "experience reccomended prior to handling." This puts the red knee, which has long been hailed as one of the most docile T.'s on earth, in the same handling category as semi-agressive beasts such as L. parahybana and M. robustum on the web site. I first thought it was a typo, but when I checked all the other pics of B. smithi on the site they said the same thing. Is this because it flicks hairs more often than G. rosea and other starter species, or does Scott think B. smithi isn't as laid back as some make it out to be?
