Hello

Hi,

My names Claire. I don't have any T's at the moment as I am traveling and I don't think my suitcase would be suitable accommodation. I'm hoping to settle into a permanent home later in the year and I am hoping to get some T's then.
In the meantime I plan to learn as much as I can in preparation for then so I will hopefully get as few surprises as possible. I will probably be asking stupid questions and embarrassing myself so I apologize now.
Thanks

Claire

Hello Everyone!!
My name is Branden and I have been an arachno-nut for about 8 months now. My friend introduced me to the hobby and I now own 5 T's and looking for more. As you can probably tell by my User ID, i am a U.S. Soldier. I have been in the Army for two long years, and I am stationed in Georgia. I originally from South Carolina. I am also into cars and guitars!! Will have pics soon!

Bye!

Hi everyone,

I have quite a bit of experience with arachnids. My daughter and I are doing a specialized kids & adult educational & entertainment program, we go to a lot of schools, churches, ymca's & convalescent centers. We are always looking for large gentle arachnids to use in our programs & this seemed to be a great place to hook up to find other people interested in the same thing we are and maybe to find some new pets to add to our collection. We also have herps and some other exotic stuff but the inverts have been my favorites for awhile. Great to be here.;)

Greetings. New here, but not totally new to the world of arachnids. I've had a mild interest in them all my life, but just recently I have become heavily hooked on them from playing with the macro photography setting on my digital camera.

I'm not to knowledgeable on the scientific names or identifying species yet, but I've got a basic general knowledge on them.

I was born in Phoenix, AZ and moved to Colorado when I was 3. Had tons of fun hunting black widows when I was a kid during summer time, which I usually spent at my grand parents in Phoenix. Thats where my mild interest on arachnids and other invertebrates started.
Currently I live in Hillsboro, Oregon where I've been since I was 13.

At the moment I have no invertebrate pets, but I had a funnel weaving spider a few years back. I caught it, but let it go after a week. Also I've been wanting to get a tarantula for a couple years now, but my wife won't have it lol. In the meantime though I've been happy just photographing the local arachnid and invertebrate life around my apartment.

Wow, thats the longest intro I've ever done. Anyways I'll post some of my photos here in the near future.

Hello everyone!!!

Hey everybody we are new to the thread and we are pretty new to the arachno-world as well. You will probably see me on here primarily posting because I am the one that initially got started with taking in T's as pets. My name is Richard, I was just a recent arachnaphobe but now I am an arachnoholic :) my girlfriend Joelle (pronounced Jo Elle) was the one that talked me into buying my first invert.

Anyway, we are a laid back couple that are always wanting to experience and learn new things. And we are going to be happy to talk to each and every one on you during our stay here at the AB!

I had my first T (stripe knee) about 3 years ago and my first scorpion (emporer) about 4 years ago. After they passed away (under someone elses care while i went home on vacation :mad: ) i took some time off to focus on school and then take a month long trip to madagascar but now i'm getting back in to it in a much bigger way. I currently have:

Tarantulas:

Mexican Redknee Tarantula (Brachypelma smithi): 0.0.2
Mexican Fireleg Tarantula (Brachypelma boehmei): 0.0.1
Chilean Rose Haired "Flame" Tarantula (Grammostola rosea): 0.0.1
Guyana Pinktoe Tarantula (Avicularia avicularia) 0.0.1
Panama Red Rump Tarantula (Sericopelma rubronitens) 0.1.0
Brazilian Salmon Birdeater (Lasiodora parahybana) 0.0.1
