Update: I was bitten by one. Not something I'd recommend but I'm about to try to start a colony of them (it really wasn't any worse than my OBT bite). I'll keep you guys posted on how it goes.

Nice, can you say Scotch?;P

Hope you didn't get too much venom in your system.:(

Agressive, potent venom and fast as hell.

I want one, I will get one, and only really because I'm seeking some sort of adrenaline rush. But, first things first. Waiting on a shipment of a 6" P. Ornata, 6"+ P. Regalis and a 4" P. Irminia. All females :3

S cals are some of the best Ts. As long as you have experience with fast Ts and some common sense, you should be fine.

I seem to have taken a liking to nothing but T's. Although I will be getting a scorpion soon. Trust me though, this guy will be more then enough of a adrenaline rush for me :p (I still jump when my more skittish species move fast. Hell, I jumped when my OBT sling tried to escape.)

The time to worry is probably when/if you ever stop jumping. :D

Pretty spider

I know I shouldn't but for some reason this makes me want to get one. But no, on a serious note the only thought of a tarantula to ever really terrify me is the thought of an S. calceatum bite because heart palpitations x.x.
