I'm really amazed at how many people love g. pulchra! I've always thought that arboreal lovers outnumbered terrestrial lovers. I would have to choose GBB. Although in my dreams they are 10".

While the G. Pulchra and B. Klaasi would be on the list, that will change soon, as I will be getting both here soon, so here is the updated list:

1. Aphonopelma Moderatum (3 slings and a juvenile pair)

2. Avicularia Braunshauseni (slings at 1")

3. Avicularia Geroldi (slings)

4. Grammostola Grossa (slings)

5. Thrixopelma Cyaneolum (what ever size I can get them)

6. P. Lugardi (I am not even going to try spelling the whole thing as spelling would be terrible)

7. Euathlus Sp. Yellow (slings and adult female)

8. Eupalaestrus Campestratus (slings)

9. Brachypelma Schroederi (slings)

10. Brachypelma Albopilosum (Nicaragua) (sling or adult)

Well I don't have one so I don't want to commit, but the number 1 on my want list is a p metallica. I'm guessing they don't dissapoint though. Second would be a blondi or stirmi. Had a stirmi for about 2 weeks before my wife made me give it up because she was so afraid of it. I will have one again!

I'd have to say that yellow and blue Pseudhapalopus sp. that hasn't made it to the hobby yet.

Being more realistic, I'd go with either A. moderatum or B. albiceps.

I already have mine. My Pamphobeteus sp. Machala female. Everything I imagined a Pampho would be.
Also my H. mac is my dream tarantula in the arboreal category.

But as for what I'm after next, G. pulchra and more Phormictopus

Since T's seem to have no warm fuzzy feelings towards humans, one the size of a veewee might consider you food...........
I'm just sayin
A geniculata doesn't have to be the size of a VW to consider you food, actually. They will consider you food one way or another. o_O

I would have said an LP, but seeing as how I finally convinced the hubby to let me have more than one T and a sling will be here in a few days :smug: ...

G. Pulchra is next on my list!

If I had to pick just one T from my collection to keep, it would be my E.sp Red female. She was my very first T and she's so gentle and adorable. I couldn't part with her. I'd also have to sneak my tiny E.sp Red sling as well, because my mom is in love with that T and she would be sad if it was gone.

As far as dream Ts go, this is my new list. Strictly Avics (except for one with the foul name change) as I've fallen in love with them here recently. Anyway, on to the list!
C.Versicolor
Avicularia Amazonica
Avicularia Avicularia
Avicularia Braunshauseni
Avicularia Diversipes
Avicularia Metallica
Avicularia Purpurea

And that's it! For now...:angelic:

Definitely Euathlus sp Red!

Also Aphonopelma bicoloratum and Ybyrapora diversipes (formerly Avicularia diversipes).
