What is the consensus on the most decorated and docile of the Theraphosidae

[Roski]

I feel good about recommending versicolor, although again, both RobC and myself have bitey females. In my case, first time I've seen this from this species. So long as the person knows there's a slight possibility.

Generalizations are what we go on when making these types of recommendations. I definitely acknowledge the possibility for individuals within a species to... surprise you. It comes with the territory in T keeping, and is half the fun!

Of course, but sometimes newbs don't fully realize this.

Ah, well, we ruined the surprise.
