I'm new here, too!

Yeah, I'm new in this part of town. I don't actually have a tarantula yet, but I'm looking to get one soon. I'll explain all that in the appropriate section. My aunt had one when I was a kid, but I don't remember much about it except that it was beautiful and scary (to a seven-year-old). Anyway, a little about me.... I'm very happily married, but no children yet, not until he graduates college. I'm more of a cat person than anything else, but I like spiders and snakes, too. I'm a very faithful and devoted Christian, and I'm about to join my church choir. Music is my world, it makes everything more fun. And now I'm rambling.....

Hello,

My name is Danielle and I have been in to arachnoculture for over ten years. I have had many different species of tarantulas everything from the docile Grammostola spatulate (Chilean Rose-haired) to the evil and beautiful Pterinochilus species (Usumbura Orange Baboon) to too many to list all. I currently have two female dwarf tarantulas that I have had for nine years. When I first bought these two they were extremely small spiderlings. The only info that I have for one of the tarantulas the Aphonopelma Cochise (Gray tarantula) comes from the Color Guide to Tarantulas of the World, by Russ Gurley. I have heard that some of the scientific names are wrong in that book, so I'm not sure that is the correct name for my spider. The other dwarf is a Timesiphates SP.? (Uruguay Dwarf) I cannot find any info on that tarantula at all. Does anyone have any info on these two dwarf species?

I was introduced to arachnobords from a breeder that I met at a reptile show, who I bought a very interesting and adorable Grammostola Aureostriata (Chaco golden knee) spiderling from.

Hi all

My name is KAt, and I have been looking into a Brachypelma angustum or Guatemalan Redrump whatever you prefer to call them..but as always I have to do some background work first, I don't believe in keeping anything I dont know about, for their safty and comfort. I currently live with 2 cats, 5 aquariums , a vieled chameleon, a chinese water dragon and a bearded dragon.
Living in the city doesn't work for larger animals! We have had a weeper capuchin monkey (rescue) dogs cats snakes lizards birds..I miss having the space to have a zoo..BUT also the older I get the less time I really want to spend with upkeep..so thats why I am here..

 

[RedEarthExotics]

My name is Cameron. I have just recently started keeping tarantulas. It seems just as addictive as pythons. I currently keep and breed a variety of pythons and plan on doing the same with tarantulas. I figured the best way to learn about tarantulas is to talk to other people keeping them so I decided to join this forum. Can't wait to start!

[FuzzOctave]

Heya!

Just joined. I've had numerous A. chalcodes as a kid, growing up in AZ. I used to catch them all of the time.

I just got back into keeping T's about 2 years ago and I now am on the cusp of a habit. I wouldn't be surprised if my collection just keeps on growing. I do have to be careful not to acquire some of the more aggressive and or speedy sp. as I have a child in the house, who has also shown interest in having a T of his own. My spouse isn't too fond of my fuzzy ones either. But, who can resist having a Poki or a T. blondi?

Cheers!
