Ack! I've been sucked in

I started reading that big long thread a little over a week ago, finally caught up, and you people have sucked me in!! I didn't want to hijack it with my first world problems, though. I've been living on the T board this whole time. I haven't even had time time to lurk in the shadows over here. I'm obsessed. My copy of The Tarantula Keeper's Guide will be here tomorrow, and I'm pretty darn certain I'm getting a GBB (at least) when my expo comes around. But that isn't for a whole MONTH! I don't want a sling as my first, but I also don't have two hundred bucks for a good sized G. pulchripes. So I researched on, and I've found two that I think I like. I want to know who has experience with them and what their opinions are. They are: Euathlus sp. red and Paraphysa scrofa. My main concern is it seems that they are problem feeders. Is it true? I also welcome any other suggestions, as I'm LOVIN' reading up on all of them! :D

Is it gonna be your first T EVER?

Never worked with them, so I'm not much help.

Why don't you want a baby?

Yes, it will be my first ever. And that's why I don't want a baby. They seem so fragile. Not that I want to handle it, but I would worry over if it has enough humidity, ventilation, is that roach too big for it.. that kind of fragile.

Get a G. pulchripes that's about 2" and you'll be golden :)

At that size you won't really have to worry about humidity. Feed a meal about the size of the abdomen once a week. And the price point will still be low.
