Hi. My name is Ted and I have two T's. A CB Mexican Red Rump and a Chilean Rose (just got it today.). He/She snatched up a feeder cricket in less than an hour after I set it up in it's new home. Had a rose years ago. Once it molts, I'll send its skin to Gene's at NWI to have it sexed.

I got interested in them again after a friend got one for valentine's day. Go figure!

Now, I just need to get one more-a Mexican Red Knee and I will be done. (I hope)

A breeding pair of Phidippus Audax

I found a male and a female within 2 days of each other. They were together for a day or so in my spider enclosure, and now she is gravid.

He now resides in a separate, 15 gallon terrarium.

All they've eaten for a week or so is big, fat houseflies; about 6 a day, each.:

suggestions for spider/sling bliss?:?

Yay!

Hi!

I joined a few days ago and I'm so happy to be here because I love insects and spiders to death and I have tons of books on them. I wish that my mom would let me keep at least one spider, scorpion, centipede, or millipede but she doesn't like them.

My name is Brittanie Christina McCormack and I'm 15 years old ( I turned 15 on March 1st ). I like singing and meeting new people making them laugh. I love playing jokes on people so beware!;P I also love boingies if you don't know what they are here's one for you:

Isn't it cute? :D I have alot of them! I live in NYC! You'd be surprised as to how many insects and spiders live just outside my house! Loads! I'm also leaving for camp on July 18th for about a month. I'm looking forward to seeing every one again at camp. I go every year.

I'll be home 2 days early. They have lots of bugs up there so I'm bound to get tons of pics. Hopefully most of them will be decent and that the bugs will cooperate! lol! Any way that's a bit about me. Looking forward to posting here and having tons of fun with you guys!

Hugs and kisses to you and your pets!

I've been here a while but I'll introduce myself anyways.
My name is Shayna and I live in the prairies of Canada. I do well in school, but it's boring a lot of the time, so i have a part time job. I love working at the theatre, I get a bunch of free stuff and I'm paid VERY well for a first job.
I am a vegan and a pretty environmentally friendly person. I think keeping T's is really interesting, and I also have a cat and a dog I rescued from the pound. lol.
I am in army cadets, so I'm going to Whitehorse for the summer. I am on the drill, biathalon and rifle teams in cadets and I am first in the province for my age in marksmanship ;).
I'm more than thrilled to be finishing up this school year and I'm moving to a public school for grade 11, I've been in the catholic school system since preschool but I am mostly agnostic.

Add me on myspace.

How's your pets? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

Been here for a little bit, so instead of being my reclusive self, allow me to introduce myself - Relatively new to this site, not new to tarantulas. Been out of keeping them for a decade, but I'm coming back, although not with a vengence; 3 seems a good number. Then we'll see...

hi everyone. its great to be here. i've been checking out this site for like a year now, but had to wait until the summer when my mom was at work to get an account. i've got 1 T, Grammastola rosea (Chilean rosehair) that i got two years ago named Little Blossoming Rose. ik, so original. she's doin' good. she's due for another molt this month, so i've been cautious about the crickets. i'm also T-sitting for a friend of mine who's in minnesota right now. a Grammastola rosea named Lily Rose. my name is ashley, but i prefer casey. i would have been named casey if it weren't for my dad, but he's never been around anyway my entire life (he even bugged my mom to get an epideral while i was being born so he could sleep) so screw him.

a little of my personal info: i live in Colorado (the omen state and it SUCKS) i'm going into highschool next year. i am/was a cutter (trying to quit right now. i think the last time i did that was a like a month ago. its going good!
very boring life, nothing interesting happens. i'm an aspiring author, absolutely obsessed with vampires. i'm hoping to finish the book (maybe a few of the other 15 i started) this summer and be published by the time i graduate highschool. hopefully. i'm also going to college for art. already have a nice one picked out in san francisco. life has really sucked so far, but i intend to turn that around my senior year. i'm going to graduate a semester early and head for georgia on foot with everything i need in a backpack on my back (well duh, where else would it be). i'll stay the winter there and then hike the appalachian trail the next summer. then i'll find a car somewhere and drive to san fran to rent a loft there until i can get into that college.

really nice to be a part of this community
