[kieren hayes]

Hey! I’m Kieren. I don’t own any tarantulas because my roommate/bestfriend thinks they are creepy So I’m just here to live vicariously through all of you.

 

[Arrngrim]

Greetings, I go by Arrngrim online, I've never owned a tarantula and am looking into buying my first one. I am doing copious amounts of research prior to said purchase. I intend to visit a Repticon in my area next month also. Thank you in advance for all of the information I am sure I will find here.

[Snakewoman]

Hi, I just joined today. Since so many of my inquiries end up here I finally decided to join. I also thought it would be a great place to get answers from other people rather than google since there is so much conflicting info out there. And I might be able to help someone too!

Hi guys, I'm Dan. I've been in the hobby for a little over two years now. I've been on TarantulaForums sporadically but never posted over here mainly because for some reason, this place was blocked at work and that's where I do most of my internet browsing. For whatever reason, it's no longer blocked, so here I am! I've kept my collection small but am looking to pick up some more additions soon. I post pictures/videos of my Ts on Instagram @tardantula, give me a follow if you're interested!

0.1.0 Grammostola rosea
0.0.2 Grammostola pulchra
0.1.0 Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens
0.0.1 Caribena versicolor
0.0.1 Lasiodora parahybana
0.0.1 Acanthoscurria geniculata
0.0.1 Homeoemma chilensis

Please don't put tarantulas on your face, it's a selfish, unnecessary risk to both you and the tarantula.

She wasn't 'put' there so much as I didn't discourage her climbing. For what it's worth, I was sitting on my bed and she was only there briefly before being lowered again. But anyway, I changed my avatar so as not to tick off anyone else.

[NotRotty]

Hello, new to the forum. I currently have 1 Pandinus ?, 1 Heterometrus ?, a dozen or so Gromphadorhina portentosa(Not for feeders), and what I assume is a T. stirmi. Used scientific names since most here do.
I have plans on furthering my collection.

Read some useful information so far, looking to learn more.

I have a 5 year old and 7 year old and we all love interesting animals and critters. In addition to the Spinifer we have a Ghecko, 'Remmy'.

Glad to have access to a lot of great people and information. In the future im sure ill be looking into a tarantula. Ive been following "The Dark Den" on youtube. A lot great information on there as well.

Cheers!

I currently own a 3 Inch Suspect Female A. Variegata and a 5 inch Female G. Rosea. I am planning on getting a P. Irminia within the month of April.

 

[Hilabeanz]

Hello arachnofriends!

I have been lurking for a little while and am finally posting. I inadvertently stumbled into tarantula keeping 6 years ago by taking in an unwanted female g. rosea from a co-worker. I have only recently added a b. boehmei sling and female b. albopilosum "nicaragua" to the household. So while I've had a T for a few years I still consider myself quite the newcomer to the hobby. I am so in love with the variety, beauty and grace of them. I will post some pics of Charlotte and Mathilde to my profile. Boehmei is unnamed until I get the little guy/gal sexed. I'm old fashioned that way.

I'm in Texas - so howdy y'all!
