Hi all,

I'm not really new to T's, just to this site.

Couple years ago I got a B. Boehmei, and I became curious, saw the colorful A. Versicolor, so I got one of those, and at a reptile show I picked up a P. Pulcher.

April 2006 while on vacation, both the Boehmei and the Versicolor died, still not sure why, cause they were both adults at that point, and my little Pulcher was about 2.5" and survived.

Still have the Pulcher, and now I'm seeing a lot more T's for sale than back then. So I've recently picked up a Avic. Purpurea, and a P. Ornata.

I pick my T's based on looks (I'm shallow I know), I also prefer Arboreals.

Other things I keep, 2 red tail boas, and 2 crested geckos.

I like this site, very informative.

Hey everybody!

This is Ben...I was a member here a couple years ago, and also attended the ATS convention back when I was in middle school. 6th grade maybe? Anyway, Now I'm going into 11th grade, and I was staring at my G. Rosea and C. Cyaneopubescens and remembered how cool everyone on here was and how much I enjoyed the hobby. I hope to be seeing a lot more of everybody on here and will hopefully come around full swing back into the hobby for ATS convention 08!

Hellooo :D

Hey. My name is Courtney, I'm seventeen and I just found this website and I really liked it. I'm pretty new to tarantulas, but I am completely fascinated by them. Some of the most elegant and interestings creatures I would say.
Anyway, I got a beautiful Chilean rose maybe a month and a half ago, she's very sweet and her name is Flower.
I got a Cobalt Blue just a couple days ago. Not a good tarantula for begginers yes I know, but I just couldn't help myself :D Her name is Rain.
I also have three scorpions, a Southern Devil named Thorn, Flat Rock named Stone, and an Emporer named Forest.
(All my little creatures are named from nature, I love it)

So yeah, anyone want to give me any advice with anything? It'd be much appreciated.
Or you can just say hi, that works too.

Courtney​

Latrodectus bishopi fascinates me, i think they are so cool. i want to dedicate my life to the study of latrodectus i currently have 2 females and 10 eggsacs.

Hi All,

I am Mike from cornwall.

I have been a T fan for around 17 years and still have a healthy Chilly rose called Bessie who is almost 17 years old now.
My collection has gone up and down over the years and I am always looking to get hold of the rare species that are out there.

Newbie...

Just got my first tarantulas very recently and was able to witness a molt. At the moment I have two Chilean Roses, but am planning on expanding on my pets. :)

Our house is veritable zoo with 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 parrots, 2 kids and several aquariums as well.

Still nervous about keeping my spiders healthy. They seem more fragile than I think most people would believe, since they appear so fierce.

I'll most likely just lurk, trying to glom onto everyone elses experience. :)

I have a rosehair that i grew to be very comfortable with and i just picked up a versicolor spiderling yesterday. thats why i joined the forum, so I can just read old posts and stuff to help out with my new versicolor and just to see what all is out there!

I'm a 19 and i'm just getting into tarantulas. I've been meaning to for a while cus i've always thought they looked dope and seemed very interesting. So now i'm finally doing my research and hoping to buy a Costa Rican Zebra as a starter. i'm hoping to find some canadian dealers here that can help get set up.

Hi! My name's Megan. I'm 17 and I've been into tarantulas for a couple years now. My dad and my brother are on here as behind_you12 or something like that. My dad is the secretary of the ATS, his name is Patrick. I'd list our spiders but I can't really remember that many. Anyways... I just wanted to stop by here and introduce myself.

Hello all. I am Kelly from the big state of Texas. I am new to the world of tarantulas. I just recieved my 1st one a Mexican redrump. Sorry I dont have any pics of her at the moment, just pics of her house and how she blocked herself in. Seems she holed herslef up in her log cover.
She is about 2 inches so still young. Rightnow she has a pink rear which is kinda cute {D . Any ways bear with me cause I am sure I will have several questions as I learn more and more about her.
