How long after you got your first T did you get your second. I have had my G. rosea for three weeks and as short as i get a little money I'm to get an A. avic
i would say that i am done but i still need to order my B. smithi slings from Ryan and will likely purchase 6 - 10 of the little boogers!
Because slings have a habit of dying for no reason sometimes. So by buying 5 or so you increase our chance of having one that will survive to adulthoodi've always wondered, ..Why do you guys/girls buy a lot of the same slings ???
For myself, i really want to raise a T up from a tiny sling and hope to have at least one female in the bunch - especially from a cool T like the B. smithi. Not for breeding purposes as much as knowing i will probably be lucky enough to have that T for a very long time since the female B. smithi have such an incredibly long life span. i'd most likely keep more than one female of the B. smithi if i were lucky enough to end up with more. However, for a lot of other T's i buy multiple slings of, i will probably sell off all extra T's once i know i have that one female.i've always wondered, ..Why do you guys/girls buy a lot of the same slings ???
Yeah, and i don't remember having to sign any kind of release or something that informed me that i acknowledged how addictive of a problem this would be when i received my first T. They don't tell you when you buy your first and just one T that it is really a gateway T to many, many more T's...i now have 32 spiders, 2 scorpions and 2 praying mantis. I have 2 more spiders in the post as we speak, (L. parahybana and a P. murinus) coming to me tomorrow morning, with 2 more following them (C. crawshayi and H. maculata) with some more coming next week I'm addicted lol
heck, i heard some petstores are *giving* away the first one!Yeah, and i don't remember having to sign any kind of release or something that informed me that i acknowledged how addictive of a problem this would be when i received my first T.

i'm sure you're right. Those are the really bad, mean store owners/dealers. They know that by giving you your first one, they'll have a hooked customer for life!! i can just see myself now - scrapping together all my food and rent money, including loose change, and just begging the dealer for another... LOLheck, i heard some petstores are *giving* away the first one!
