My favorite adult is C. darlingi I think, such a great eater and aside from an occasional complete meltdown very well-mannered. I do have a few O. aureotibialis slings that are quickly rising their way through the ranks of my favorites though only time will tell when they reach adulthood

I have 26 different species of baboons and three more OWs. My favorite is still easily one of my first.

20220301_191851.jpg Right now, I'm going to say my Singapore Blue. Even though her blue/purple is so dark it's almost black, she was my 1st Old World as I got back into the hobby. She was a good 1.5" when I bought her. She experienced a lot of firsts with me. Usage of springtails. Her enclosure has been damp the whole time and never molded. Great sprintails colony. Wish I would have wrote down the mix I used..... She's a beast and around 8". Less than 2 years old. I'm interested to see how big She's going to get.

I got lucky and bought one out of the 3 they had. I think the boys are kind of cool though too, actually.

These are all amazing species. I am more of a African Baboon guy. My favourites are any T's from the Ceratogyrus or Harpactira genus. In fact these are my favourite spiders of all.
