well an OBT( orange bitty thing) make great pets. like it dry, temps normaly around common house temps. they eat great, and make crazy webs. if you arent going to try and handle it then i saw get one. just as long as you know they are very fast and can be very "deffensive". but i have never had a problem with any of the ones i have had.

as for other Ts for first timers, there is the common rosie( rose hair), the pink toe( avic avic), pretty much any of the branchys ( red knee, red leg, and so on) and the native american Ts make great pets and are cheapish and they are very pretty. good luck and be warned Ts are just as addicting and snakes!
