I had planned to give a few spiderlings away and was intentionally raising them to do so, since some of my friends get curious about my Ts and have expressed an interest in them. I recently shipped off a T albo to a newbie keeper and they love it. That made me happy and I had no regrets.
Last night, however, I gave two more slings to a friend who lives about three hours away. I've known this person for ages and I'm sure that they'll take good care of them, but I rolled around all night worrying about if they forget to give them water and they dehydrate in the desert, where my friend lives. I've had these two slings set aside for them for months. I don't know why I'm so worried about them just now.
I had considered also giving them a big A chalcodes girl I received in a bundle recently, but I guess I've gotten super attached to her and I got all weepy when I thought about giving her away to someone, so she's not going anywhere.
I have 113 spiders, which is honestly too many for the amount of space I currently have allotted to spiders, so I've been thinking about paring my collection down a little bit. I'm not sure I can do it, considering how emotional I got after just thinking about handing this big girl off to someone else.
Have you ever pared your collection down? How did you feel about it before and after?
