Getting new T's

[DeathsPyro12]

Hey, I am kinda new here and wanted your opinions, sometime in the near future, that being some time after next friday, I am going to order the fallowing T's
B.Vagans
C.Crawshayi
C.Fasciatum
H.Lividum
H.Maculata
L.Parahybana
P.Murinus
P.Regalis

I am probably going to order 2 of each, the only question I have is, should I order 5 lovely OBT's, or should I buy a single Stromatopelma calceata?

Haha, decisions, decisions.

That's quite a list there! My vote would go with the Stromatopelma calceata

i agree :clap: :clap:

IMO better to get variety than a ton of the same spider.

Actually, though, if you are getting slings, buying more than one of each makes sense since you don't know whether you will be getting a female or not. If you buy two and you don't get a female, the fates are against you and you lose.

congrats, good luck with them.

i'd go with the S. cal too.

I would get the 5 obts and the S Calc. Go big or go home.

Thanks all, yeah thats why I was thinking of getting multipule sling, better chance of a female later also ive decided to get only one C.Crawshayi and im going to get 3 OBT slings and 2 of the S.cal's, my only issue is I'm not used to taking care of slings. Are there any others you guys(and girls) would add to the list? The ones I listed I am ordering from swiftinverts. The only thing I am hating right now is waiting to get paid :wall: Thanks for everything.

Wow, great list! Good call with the S. cals and obts. Since you're going big with this list, what about a GBB or two? If they're available on swifts that is. Can't go wrong with another brachy, nhandu, or genic either

 

[DeathsPyro12]

I wish swifts had a few GBB, but none are listed and I never got an email back to see if they could order other T's or anything.

So I think my final list is:
B.Boehmei x1
B.Vagans x2
C.Crawshayi x1
C.Fasciatum x1
H.Lividum x2
H.Maculata x2
L. Parahybana x1
P.Murinus x3
P.Regalis x2
S.Calceata x 2

So I think this will be fun, and im sure I will get even more later(probably next payday xD ) Also would it be alright to put slings into a slightly larger cage? like a 1/2" sling in a 2" square cage?? Alsoabout what size can they NOT slip through the lids of kk's? Thanks again, Tim
