When I started in the hobby about 2 years ago i bought beginner species only after owning a few of these species for around a year i then bought a mystery box <edit> and I left in the comments for the order that I only wanted beginner species nothing to crazy they completely ignored my comment and sent out thialand black / burgundy Goliath / gooty sapphire / king baboon and gbb tarantulas out of all of these which I wasn’t experienced enough to keep but I gave it a go and still have them 1 year later without being bitten and the Ts seem to be happy and in good health but I’ve been absolutely <edit> up by the pure speed of Thailand black and the gooty sapphire in fact I think the fear of these tarantulas behaviours and temperaments are why I’ve never been bitten and as much as they terrify me in rehousing and sometimes even feeding I wouldn’t have it any other way as the difference is with these old worlds and some new worlds is they demand respect I will definitely get dissed on here for not knowing scientific names I know a few but probably could not spell them has any other beginners taken on such defensive species of tarantulas on here ...I know I shudnt have even tried but I got what I got in the mystery box I rollled with it and nothing bad has happened so far and it’s been a year I do think my fear of them has kept me safe tho at no point have I been paid back with these Ts my adrenaline kicks in as soon as one of them fast buggers comes out of its hide / burrow /web any tips for any of the species mentioned also they seem healthy and molting feeding drinking just fine but any tips can always be handy
