Who cares if it's an old thread. I'd much rather not have the forum cluttered with the same threads and questions all the time. A thread that is as simple as, "What's your favorite T" doesn't need to be posted every single day. It gets old to be honest.
I agree. Doing this helps especially when one does a search.

:eek: sorry, just saw a lot of ressurected threads today. i meant no harm by it, just a little bit of humour. and you're right, better to keep the old thread going than everyone start their own "what's youre fav/what should i buy/etc."

Yes I do! And I bet you and I aren't the ONLY ones on this board who talk to their Ts!=D

My g. rosea, sitting on her eggsack, "tenses up" when I open her enclosure to check humidity. When I talk to her, she "relaxes" and lays back down on the sac.

With some of the others, if I open an enclosure to feed and don't speak, they'll jump when I toss in the cricket. But if I speak to them first, they seem to expect that I'll be tossing something in or picking them up.

I'm in no way suggesting that they "hear" me, or that they "know" me!! But, our voices each have an individual tone and rhythym and I DO think they become accustomed to that after a certain amount of time.
I talk to my pedes all the time.I keep my African jewel centipede next to my bed that I always talk to every night.Yes,I'm very weird

I see I voted on this poll already...That was back when I was in the first category of 1-5, last year. Now I'm in the second category of 6-10. ;)

Wow we voted 30-39 when this thread first popped up. We have somewhere in the 120 range now. Funny how quickly things change.

Does not compute. :eek:
Surely if I keep telling myself that, I'll stick to it...won't I?


Actually, to be more specific, there are only a few more species I want. But I'll probably have to go through multiple individuals to finally get all females of those species. So yeah, even though I say only a few more to go, in reality.... :D

I'm pretty sure that when I've run wishlist dry, I'm just going to start finding new species to drool over. :8o

0 for me...though I want one badly, I am under my parents' roof and already have three pet birds. I may, however, be able to get a tarantula for christmas or possibly for graduation.
G. pulchripes for me. Then I'll look at the other NW species. I do have a tentative wishlist, but I need to do more research of the species on it. I fully intend, however, to get a GBB (C. cyaneopubescens I believe?) and a B smithi. I may never, however, get a pokie if the venom from all species can cause respiratory symptoms, so after that a H. lividium. Then I'll sit still for a bit....yeah, right.

Right now I have 2: a Brachypelma albopilosum and a Nhandu chromatus. I'm in the process of planning to expand my collection but I haven't quite decided which ones I will get. The trouble is finding places to put them all. Most serious collectors seem to have a tarantula room, and that will probably be something I might do when I get my own place.
