B sabolsum slings or perhaps juveniles are also worth looking at if you are going to go with brachys.
I recently rehoused my slings. These are 1" DLS now.
As adults, they are red rumps and resemble B vagans. The slings I have are the slowest growing slings I've ever had but they do put on size.
I'd say start with one a little bit bigger, maybe 1.5" to 2" DLS unsexed if you can find them. Still, these slings eat just fine, but slings can be fragile.
Out of the 4 I have, 3 are doing great. One fell further and further behind and was deceased when I was going to rehouse them.
This can really crush a novice keeper.
Getting a larger sling or a juvenile allows you to grow with and learn about your new tarantula.
