I was thinking more on the lines of free sling, but shipping is 10X the amount it normal is??? :smuggrin:

im sooo jealous! I did not realize it was an OW. Maybe a good second or third T to own. =) The speed does not really concern me that much. I really believe if it is respected and properly 'handled' (not physically touched) then speed can be worked around.

Since everyone here has been so wonderful and helpful.. Any thoughts on a Dolichothele diamantinensis?? I know they are REALLY fast.. but other thoughts? Honestly, I have kinda feel in love with this one.

:mad: how lucky are you?? I am still looking and investigating all the options.. everyone has helped so much.. luckily I do have time on my side.. I am hoping to get my daughter one for graduation, in about a year... sooner if i have the chance..

OMG.. I am in love with so many now.. and I think my daughter likes twice the amount that I do. Thank you everyone for the input! OMG what a gorgeous T!

ok.. that would freak me the heck out! was up all night at 3am tearing apart a 55 gal fish tank because I could not find a betta that was in there.. i found him.. alive and hiding. :/ Could not imaging trying to find a spider in the folds of the couch...

incredibly rare.... ugh! looks like her and I are going to do a lot of googling tomorrow about all these different kinds.

She is 16. so not really a 'child'.

My daughter is so picky (she gets that from me :shame:). She wants a smaller size. She is not wanting a 6-7 inch tarantula, and really something more than just a 'brown' spider. I am thinking ease of care, humidity requirements, etc in the long run. I am open to all suggestions!

Looking for more information where I can buy dwarf tarantulas. My daughter really wants a Euathlus sp red or E. parvulus.. ok.. I am having zero luck on them. :( Is there another dwarf type species that would be good for a beginner? We are located in the USA. Thanks

I can not speak for others, but you have helped me out a TON!

I am in luck as the tank we are going to use I pretty much stole.. not really.. I found a 30 gallon reptile breeder tank brand new (still had all its original packaging on it) for about $20.00. It is 30 inches long, 12" deep, 12" high. Which is probably way to big... Cheesecloth between the lid...

OMG! I almost spit my coffee out reading your reply. That is way to funny!

Thanks for the link.. I think we will be ordering at least our substrate from them.. We live in the middle of farmlands and fields, which also means pesticides to the max. :/ Any idea about using live plants?

Thank you everyone for the responses! We were thinking about starting off with some ivories. Although I really like the Bumblebees. How many is a reasonable amount to start off with? 4??

I am sure this has been asked before.. and I am sure there are many different answers. Looking to purchase a millipede, I should say several. Why stop at just one... Looking for a good beginner species. Also, some ideas on housing. Although the typical clear storage container works, its not...
