Hi, I'm from Slovakia (but I have Hungarian nationality-so you can send me PM's in hungarian if you want ).....I study at a medical school--I have one more year until my graduation... And something about T's --I started to keep tarantulas in February so I'm not very experienced yet...
Best.

Good Opener

Hello,
My name is Ian. I live in Nashville, TN. I'm a 22 year old, undergraduate music business major and an extremely avid T collector. I only have 3 T's at the moment, but with much deliberation I would like to become a breeder. I really only have one local place to purchase T's, so any other options would be greatly appreciated. I currently own a 4'' F (h.lividum)Cobalt Blue, 2.5'' Unsexed (cyclosternum fasciatum)Costa Rican Tiger Rump, and a 1'' Unsexed (gramastola rosea)Chilean Rose Hair. I am currently looking for any ideas on how to house my T's all together (but in their own set ups of course) so that I can better regulate the temperatures in their set ups. Any ideas...please get them to me.
It's Good To See Enthusiasts Like Myself All In One Place
ARACHNOBOARDS Seems Peachy!

hi. i am louise and i have had snakes for 5 years. yesterday i got my first tarantula from reptscue. she sent it to me to help me get over my fear of spiders. she sent me a baby rosehair. i joined this site cause i know i will have a lot of questions and i will be reading up on them a lot.

i named her 'lily long legs' and she ate a cricket right away. here is a pic of her eating her first cricket. sorry it is through the plastic cause i did not want to disturb her.

Greetings, guys and ghouls.

I'm a 25 yr old Latino(for the most part) bloke residing in Texas. I've owned a pink-toe for about a week now. Predatory animals have always stricken fancy within me, and spiders def fit that bill, yeah. I hope to assimilate quality info chunks from this site! My collection of eight-legged friends will definitely expand in the days to come. : ) ... carry on.

I'm a newbie too!

My name is Rob and I joined AB a couple of months ago. I am a reptile lover and have been keeping and breeding them for about 15 yrs. My 13 yr old son has become fascinated with T's, so I bought him a G. Rosea and now I'm hooked. We currently have 8 and soon to be more.

Arachnewbe

Grettings -- I'm not sure this is the right place, or even forum, but I couldn't find any general discussion area where I might post something like:

I found about a dozen tiny baby spiderlings in my car this morning that were extremely pale, creamy yellow (smooth and uniform); minuscule -- about the size of a tiny gnat; obviously recently-hatched and all in the same general area.

I tried to find an egg hatching area, but couldn't. I love spiders -- used to catch black widows as a kid -- but I hate the idea of a hidden nest somewhere in my car, growing. One of them crawled across my girlfriend's face while we were driving. I just saw a documentary on Black Widows last night too, so it's ironic, but I don't think they were baby widows.

I live in Los Angeles -- any idea on a likely species?
