Yeah that one is nice too.I really like the blue on them but not enough to risk bodily harm lol.
Tarantula Keepers?

Yeah, for that reason I doubt I will ever get into the more aggressive species. They're beautiful, but just not worth the risks to me.
I've got ten tarantulas at the moment, all NW for the time being... Species list:
Psalmopoeus cambridgei
Psalmopoeus irminia
Avicularia diversipes
Avicularia purpurea
Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens
Brachypelma emilia
Grammostola sp. Maule
Grammostola pulchripes
Aphonopelma chalcodes
Holothele incei
And one scorpion- Hadogenes paucidens
As for C. cyaneopubescens being docile... Eh, not really. They lack the attitude of Haplopelma, as well as the potent bite, but they're still skittish, and not something I would consider holding, for it's safety.

Nice. I ordered a few more spiders online yesterday. Brachypelma smithi, Brachypelma albiceps, and Aphonopelma chalcodes.
Any pics of your collection? I'll be sure to share some pics of mine as soon as I get them on Wednesday.
As for the GBB, yeah, I got the impression that they were pretty handleable after seeing several handling videos, and people saying that theirs were pretty calm, but I was talking to a friend of mine about it a couple days ago, and he said basically the same thing you did.
I'll see if my camera is charged, and then try to figure out how to post pictures. A lot has changed on this site while I've been gone
used to have alot of b smithis, coasta rican zebra knees, obts, suntigers, gbbs signapore blues, p regalis, skeleton knees

I'm an arachnophobe, myself. Tarantulas just never bothered me the way other spiders do.
