Warriors vs. Whimps was created by Vanessa
I've never had normal pets. They always have extremist tendencies. And this clearly shows in the tarantulas we are raising.
They are either WARRIORS (will eat anything you throw in their cage) OR they are complete WHIMPS!

My Warrior List (so far):
B.boehmei juvenile (feeding turns into a fight with the roach)
C.cyaneopubescens (looks like Kate Moss, eats like the guy from Man vs. Food)
P.cancerides (I'm scared of her - I throw the food at the far end of the cage and I watch her run like Bolt and clobber the poor roach while giving me the evil eye).
P.fasciata

My Whimp List:
A. avicularia (no surprise there)
H.maculata (she is still on Prozac)
P.muticus (Mature female - she won't eat anything bigger than 2cm?! ... but at least we got her eating again.... so I can't really complain)

Please share your warriors & whimp list!

The ones that stand out the most:

Warriors:
N.chromatus x2 (Sometimes I think the bigger one wants to eat me)
P.cambridgei

Whimps:
B.klaasi (in his defence he only has 7 legs)
L.parahybana
G.rosea

Sometimes I think my sole purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others

Warriors:
A geniculata. If it mvoves it gets eaten. Enclousre maintenance is....fun.
P irminia & cambridgei.
C fimbriatus. Food gets attacked, stowed, sits and begs for more.
T ockerti.

Wimps:
All the Lasiodoras. Runs around screaming: "Oh my god there's a thing in my cage we're going to die! We're going to die!"

I'm not impossible. I'm being improbable.

Wimps:
Glad I'm not alone with the lasiodoras! When I got my L parahybana I thought it'd be a hunter warrior - instead, it runs away from the crickets and spends its life hiding in a burrow...

Warriors:
On the other hand, our B albopilosum is a beast. Tries to eat fingers, tongs, the plants in the enclosure - anything that can be gnawed on, will be!
