Wow so many awesome responses! Thanks everyone!
I guess I should have said it wasn't ALL about the money. I sent my second MM off to be bred last weekend and the gentleman who took him(owns a brick and mortar store in Austin) said I could either have my cut of the babies or trade them in for...
I don't have the time or desire to start breeding tarantulas right now, but I'm entertaining the idea for the (distant) future.
Since we all know it's not about the money, I wanna hear what inspired some of you to breed tarantulas and perhaps what species you started with?
My little Avicularia versicolor:
The Aphonopelma hentzi that wandered onto my porch and curled up, presumably to die. I suspect it encountered some pesticide, but after some time in a new home (my apartment) it started to regain it's strength. Now it is a healthy, happy T again.
One of my...
My pictures aren't the best quality, but I desperately need a place to share pictures of my babies!
For starters: My curly hair's last molt before I sent him off to be bred
Thank y'all!! I was pretty sure it wasn't a tarantula, thanks for confirming. Wish I could see these little guys all the time. They're cute and mean as hell.
Not sure if this is the right place for this, because I don't think this is a tarantula, but I am having trouble figuring out what this little guy is. There are a bunch of them around my apartments (central Texas) and it has rained recently. About the size of a half-dollar coin (legs included)
1. I think its a personal preference as far as size goes. Smaller spiderlings are a bit more fragile, but G. pulchripes is a hardy species. Heres a thread on growth rate: http://arachnoboards.com/threads/pulchripes-growth-exactly-how-slow-is-slow.260985/#post-2260490 I like having slings so that...
Tracy made my first online tarantula buying experience totally painless. What stood out to me most of all was her patience with my hundred questions. She included a little freebie with my order, even though it was a small order. Lastly, she stuck with me every step of the way, making sure to...
I've purchased 5 tarantulas here now on different occasions, and each time was as great as the last. Dave, the owner/spider guy, is a treat to interact with and very knowledgable. He got my 5 year old into tarantulas, and has always given me a great deal accompanied by great instruction and...
My apologies in advance if this is known information, but I did a bit of searching and couldn't find clarification. I'd like to review a petstore that I purchased a few tarantulas from a couple days ago. Is it OK for me to create the first petstore review (which, from what I see includes adding...
