OBT is the wrong answer. You're only allowed to like expensive tarantulas.There are a few happy surprises but the 2 that are perhaps the most baffling are my OBT and my Thrixopelma okerti. I bought the T. okerti 1/2 off at the Petco because I felt bad for it, and my sweet (and expensive) MM Gossamer is always out on display and has the best butt dances. My OBT was a frat house tarantula that I took in along with a few others and was honestly not wanting to keep them because I had read all about the bite and aggression. My pretty baby (Henry, now believed to be a Henrietta) gives me a leggy peep show every morning and evening that I can view from my reading chair. Very shy and has never reacted aggressively. Funny enough, one of the curlies (Fritz) I rescued from the same frat house is a complete psychopath who would not hesitate to bite me.
