    My experience with a Brazilian Red and White

    Mine is also of the PPMS variety. I finally broke down and put it into a larger container so that I could have a head start when it decided that my fingers resembled crickets. So far, the aggression hasnt been directed towards me, but we have had some VERY close calls when I lingered too long...

    [Warning] ADMIN WARNING: Pat Kane (2013/2014 associated with Spider Showcase)

    In the past three weeks, I have had several conversations with Pat about the purchasing of T's. It was the Petbugs ad that I first saw him in.. and that I recently saw him in again. I have dealt with him before, so there is NO QUESTION that this is indeed him in the Petbugs forum.

    I have corrupted a child

    Corrupting the children is a WONDERFUL feeling.. and now I dont feel so bad about letting mine handle the t's as well. He is very aware they can bite him and that it will most likely hurt, but he handles them with care and skill and the fearlessness that only a child can really have.

    Pamphobeteus nigricolor

    Very nice new home. Mine is a ghetto t, lives in a tupperware container, not a condo t like yours seems to be. My little one is very hungry most of the time, and although isnt outwardly aggressive, I get the butt in the air look every time I go near its container. Still at the one molt a month...

    I have several that I dont handle at all for various reasons to range from there tiny size, to there bad attitudes to everything in between. I have one that is handled once a week, sometimes more, by my son, and I have one that in on my desk and comes to the top of her container and runs her...

    Poec opinion/suggestion

    I think that the price not only depends on who you go through.. but how badly they want to make a sale.. sometimes any sale.. I got my pair of Rufilatas for a total of $40 bucks, both as one inch slings. My pederseni, which are equally, if not more expensive, I got for $30 each. Smaller...

    Poec opinion/suggestion

    I was offered a very similar deal.. minus the miranda of course, and I opted for the pederseni. They happen to be my favorite poec so it wasnt a hard choice for me.. I bought three of them !! I may have chosen differently if a miranda was offered, though. If you are sure its a miranda, I...

    ROSEY acting out of the norm????

    My Rosie has been in what I would have sworn is pre-molt at least twice. I think she does it on purpose to keep me on my toes. She will go months without eating and then suddenly devour a dozen crickets in two days like.. well like she hasnt eaten in months !! She will sit on top of her hide...

    Legality of KEEPING T's

    I know that it is illegal to sell tarantulas and scorps in Ct, but where can I find out if it is or isnt naughty to actually own them. I have randomly searched the internet, but havent found anything at all about this state. Can someone supply a link that might prove useful?? :?

    Hooray for pinkie mice!

    I understand how you feel !! I have a baby who was only about an inch when I got her, and at her last molt a few weeks ago is now a whopping four inches. I gave her a little thawed out pinkie and I felt like a mom watching "baby" take its first steps when she finally figured out it was food and...
