So im fairly new to the world of Ts. My gf had a few when we got together some time ago, and the collection has grown and continues to do so but none of the spides are actually mine. so im looking to buy myself one T thats all mine. not for breeding or trading or anything. just my personal pal to raise, and handle, and call my own to be my gaming buddy lol. to sit with me while i play my xbox and stuff. you get the picture. i want a pet basically. now i know that can be a hard thing to find, simply because each T can be unique in personality and even though a breed is known for being nice and docile there are still some who are just grumpy and strike-happy, like for instance our 2 rose hairs. one is typical docile and friendly, the other is just a grumpy bitch who tolerates no one, and dont even dream of trying to handle her.
so i just kind of have a list of things im trying to get with my trophy spider when i buy it, and i just want to know if there is a breed out there that default tends to fit this list:
No painful venom (my gfs OBT scared the crap out of me before he died, the fear of muscle spasms for a week just kinda spooked me and i was always shaky with it)
BIG, i would really like a T that gets 7-8" or more
cool colors, not essential but something with a chance for really bright colors would be cool
good appetite, im a worry wart and when some of the Ts we have now get finnicky it always scares me lol
docile, or typically docile to handle. i truly enjoy handling my spiders and want one i can bring out really anytime i want without fear of a bite. and when i say anytime i mean like every other day for hours if i want if thats possible.
Tends to display itself, i know thats more of a unique to each T kind of thing but some breeds do tend not to hide more than others.
EDIT: Fast growing would be great too, im impatient lol
Any input would be appreciated and keep in mind, im still fairly noobish with Ts. however im not afraid of more advanced breeds that demand more intricate care and such, ones with more precise temp and humidity needs etc.
