HELLO EVERYONE!!
My daughter, she is 5, and I were surfing the net for a new pet lizard. I was teaching her how to click on thumbnails to enlarge the picture. We were looking specifically for crested geckos and ended up at Redwine's site. (btw we love his site and frequent there just to look at the pics. Never gets old.) So we decided to look at his tarantulas. Well she wanted one (and the lizard too, hehehe).
I spent the next two months studying Ts. Surfed many sites, this site and Petbugs being the main ones. Read both the Schultz and Marshall books. Found a nearby dealer in Vancouver, Washington. And now we are HOOKED.
In our collection:
0.1 A. geniculata 4 inches
1 A. versicolor 1.75 inches
1 B. smithi 2.5 inches
1 C. cyaneopubescens 1.75 inches
1 G. pulchra 1 inch
0.1 P. fortis 3.5 inches
1 P. cancerides 1.25 inches
Actually 5 of them are much larger after successful molts. We plan on getting more. Maybe some more of the same kinds we already have or others but I need to research some more.
1 Grass spider we caught.
2 House spiders they live in their little corners and we've been feeding them for the last 6 or more months.
1.0 Gargoyle Gecko Plan on getting some more herps, she wants snakes but I want Leopard Geckos.
0.1 Border Collie She and my daughter make two of the best cricket wranglers I've ever seen. Man, I hate when they get loose.
Glad to be part of the group.
