[Cure]

Hi!

I'm Addi, though my friends generally address me as Cure thanks to my obsession with medical research and knowledge of the human body. I am 17, I own a dog and a bird, and I am working on attaining two tarantulas (GBB, Red Knee). I am sure that this is the beggining of a life-long obsession, and as soon as I am out of the house, I plan to own a ball python and another several snakes.
I am also interested in scorpions, though I know not a lot about them.

New to the site!

Hi my names Stephen!

I work in a petshop over here more so interested in the fishkeeping side of things but I have cared for a few different species of tarantula's over the past 3 years I have always wanted one as a pet!

So I finally plucked up the courage and just got my first Tarantula on friday just gone!

Its a mexican red knee! I named it 'chicarito' after a Mexican football player who plays for Manchester United!

Its fairly small and can probably be considered a spiderling but I am confident I'll be well able to care for it.

Here is a picture of it (don't worry I won't make a habbit of holding it i took this when i was putting it into it's viv)

I am amazed

:clap: I am completely amazed at the variety and beauty of these wonderful creatures. I am new to the site and hopefully I haven't posted on the wrong thread or answered something 5 years old. I don't like being new.

I bought a Chilean rose and she seems quite big (and fat) when I compare her to my son's. It has only been a few days and she has tried to climb the glass but I think her large bottom weighs her down. I have decided not to handle her, although Yoshi (my son's tarantula) loves to walk up my arm when I sit in the middle of the bed. Mine has climbed into my hand but I have left that in her home. I like the low care, my life is busy; I still get the enjoyment of studying those little hairs (I know they aren't hairs).

In the past I have had 2 anoles that lived 5 years and laid eggs, with one even hatching; 2 parakeets; 4 cats; many dogs; fish; and now Suri. I'd be interested in how you figured out what to call your tarantula. I went through days of names.

I'm glad to be here and enjoy reading your posts. I am learning a lot, and was ready for this one. My husband took the pink toe as it was too skittish for me and he is happy.

Hello!

Hey Everyone,
pretty new to this Forum, thought i'd join it because i was on RFUK
but spent more time on the "Spiders & Invertebrates" section than anywhere
else so i got told to check this forum out.

Just wondering if i could get to know a couple of people?

S.

 

[belleghem]

Just wanted to say hello again. I'm Joe but my friends call me waffles. I currently own 1.0.0 spider ball python 1.1.0 leopard geckos and 0.0.1 Avicularia Avicularia.

 

[AutumnRose93]

My name's Autumn and I'm new here. I joined because I just got two emperor scorpions from a breeder who couldn't keep them anymore and I want to make sure that I'm taking care of them properly. They are still young and I'm keeping them seperately, hoping to get some help sexing them.

 

[Velodona]

Finally making a post

Hello! I've been lurking around this board for the past... 3 years or so? My arachnophobia turned into more of a fearful respect and admiration for these beautiful creatures.
I had hoped to join once I purchased my own so I could have a bit more to contribute the community... but that will never happen. So I've decided to keep learning as much as I can and live vicariously through the people here.

Hi all, Names Johnny, Im 28 married with 2 of the awesomest boys a guy can ask for. Ive been in the hobby for about 4 months now, I have in my collection a Juvenile H. Lividum, Audult b smithi, Juvenile Rose hair and Juvenile emperor scorpion.

Found this site about a week ago and damn Ive been losing sleep over it, seriously i bring my laptop to bed with me and cant get enough, the pictures the threads, so much info, i love it. Trying to learn as much as I can to keep my critters as healthy as possible. So yeah, glad to now be apart of such an awesome community.

 

[kitsunemouai]

Hi everyone, Ive actually been on here for about a week or so. But I haven't really posted much. Anyways I have a B. Smithi, a B. Albopilosa, (bloth are slings and to small to tell the gender) And we just got a G. Rosea. Not sure if its a female or male. Cant really get a good picture of him/her from the underside. Any advise on how to tell?

 

[orzechova]

hullo my name is Agnes, I live in Poland [check out the chart heh..between Germany and Belorus]. I keep tarantulas for about 6 years,but i'm not really advanced-i breed only the calm and little venomous ones please be tolerant for my spelling and any other mistakes that I do-Poland is not an English-speaking country, but I'm trying really hard

 

[spaglemon]

I'm Renee, I'm from Kenora, Ont. I have 3 T's; a rose hair, mexican redknee and chaco golden knee. Almost had 4 but the little sling didn't make it. Very tragic still quite sad about him. He was a curly hair. Didn't know I'd love having the tarantulas around but once I had Unity for the first 2 yrs, I really got hooked.
