Hi all. My names Cameron, I'm 16 and live all the way over in hot Australia!

I have only really been in the invertebrate hobby for jsut over a year now, however I was familiar with all types of inverrts previous to then as i live in a place with a wide variety, including tarantulas, scorps and pedes.
I have been keeping reptiles for longer though, like around 5 or 6 years. At the moment my reptile list only consists of 2 pygmy bearded dragons, and 2 spotted pythons, however in the past i have kept other beardies, water dragons, and blue tounges.

My invert list is alot larger though. I had my first go at raising some egg sacs this season too, with 4 egg scs, however I lost two. One to ants, and the other the mother ate. The one the mother ate was the only sac that was being incubated by the mother. The rest i was doing artificially. The two sacs that were succesful though belong to one of my unidentified phlogius spp., and the other to a C. tropix (dwarf form).
It is a bit hard for me to list my collection as large part of them are still unidentified. Just a few sp. I do know i have though (alot fo these i have a few of) are Phlogius sp. Black, Phlogius sp. Eunice, Phlogius sp. pq113, Phlogius sp. Papuanus, Phlogius sp. Strenuus, Phlogius sp. Goliath, Phlogius sp. Rubiseta, Phlogius sp. Sarina, Selenotypus sp.2, Selenotholus sp. Glenelva, Selenotholus sp. Townsville, Selenotypus sp.5

I have had some pedelings this year too from my E. Rubripes, and by the looks of it I have another gravid female. Excluding the pedelings I have around 15 pedes, i can't remember though. They include E. Rubripes (a couple of different forms also), C. Westwoodi, C. Aurantipees (i know i spelt that wrong), S. Laeta, and I will be getting a couple of S. Morsitans within the enxt few days.

My scorp collection is still very small at the moment, with only 3 scorps including and I. Maculatus, U. Macrurus, and a Liocheles sp. The most scorps I have ever had though woud still only bearond 10.


Ummm, I am also into art and that sort of stuff. Especially photography now, with my main focus being on macro shots. Here is a link to some of my stuff, still quite new to the whole thing though.

Anyway, that is all for now. Look foward to seeing some of your exotics!

Hello...

Hello everyone,


I am here for two reasons. First is my new found interest in roaches, and second is for my girlfriend. She wants a "T"(as i've seen it put) and we have no idea where to begin. I am looking forward to input on first time "T's".

Thanks,

Buddylee79

Hello

Hi, I have been reading arachnoboards for a couple months now and finally decided to register. My name is Eric. I live in Louisiana, 22 years old. I have 3 leopard geckos, 250 dubia roaches, too many mealworms... I have not bought a spider yet but I want to do some reading up on the different types before I spend the money. At the moment I am looking for a fast breeding decent sized isopod colony for cleaning up my roach tank etc. Does anyone have any suggestions on which type of species would fit me? thanks. I look forward to helping people out when I start to learn a bit more.
Sincerely,
Eric

Hello!


Hello everyone!

My name is Brian and I'm glad to be finally a part of Arachnoboards! I've had an interest in insects and arachnids ever since I was a kid and after several years my interest in tarantulas has finally been re-lit.
So far I have a fledging collection - only two members! I'm currently caring for a B. smithi and a B. albopilosum, but I can only see it getting bigger!

Looking forward to my time here on Arachnoboards, I sure have plenty of questions...

Hey, My name is Neo. I live in Quebec, Canada and so far I have 3 beginner tarantulas. A Rosie, a Brazilian StripeKnee and a Mexican RedKnee. Im hoping that by registering to this forum I'll be able to get a little more information on my spiders and how to care for them. When I first got these I wasnt informed properly and so Im a little panicky now on their wellbeing. Hopefully you guys can help :3
Bienvenue Neo. I'm from Québec, Canada also! Nice to see others from Canada. I was feeling lonely :liar: {D ;)

Clif here in Atoka Tennessee. Looking forward to sharing hair-raising experiences with like-minded folks (Chilean Rose Hair that is). Got the urge to adopt one eight years ago when I stopped by a little family-owned exotic pet shop in Fort Worth TX. Took me six years of coaxing before my bride of 30 years finally said "yes" and let me bring one home. I've two now. Female "Charlotte" is guarding an egg sac. She was pregnant (is that the correct term?) before acquiring her in August 08.
