I guess since Leah beat me to it, I'll post here too, lol.

I don't post much but look around a lot. I did post my first thread today though, for a couple new T's I got.

Glad to be back!

Been away from the Arachnoworld for almost a year now. Moved a couple of times and the couple of T's I had did not survice the trip. Thinking about getting back into collecting again. My name is Troy and I live in the mountains west of Boulder, CO and love it! Looking to get hooked up with any local clubs in the Denver/Boulder area, so if any one lives around here and can hook me up, it would be apprciated.

[mwahvz]

I'm Mavs from Philippines. 22.
I had my very 1st T in Feb 2010, named her Creamsoda (Brachypelma albopilosum).
Later I added Stripe (Acanthoscurria geniculata), Pink (Lasiodora parahybana).
Friends gave me Viva (Brachypelma albopilosum), and Smith (B. Smithi)
And some other Ts i lost.

I have difficulty in taking care of slings, that's why i used to buy big ones (1 inch, most often 2 inches).
It frustrates me a lot. I hope soon I would be able to take care of T slings.
Readings from this forum, i think would help me a lot

I'm excited to learn more about tarantulas
I want to collect colorful tarantulas
i like them to become subjects of my photographs

I'm not really new to the whole arachnid ownership thing as I have owned some before. I have have recently become interested in owning a scorpion which is why I searched for forums so I could learn up before purchasing one. In truth I have always had a very strong interest in arachnids and had numerous books on them as a kid. I use to own a black widow spider which I had for a very long time along with other spiders which I always took very good care of. The problem arose when I went out to feed my neighbors dog whom I was taking care of at the time, I slipped on some shoes that had been outside for awhile and a wild black widow spider bit me and every since then I was nervous to own or mess with any spiders or venomous arachnids again. I came here not only to learn but also to help me get back into the swing of things and get over some of my fears. Seems like a pretty cool place.

[Scyr]

Greetings everyone ,

I am Scyr from Greece around 30 & very new to the hobby ! I am an admire of arachnids from a little kid but never did a serious research about them till a year ago . 2 months ago i got a Grammostola rosea which is a real beauty with such an amazing attitude & appetite as well. I grew up in a farm so i am an animal lover but from all the animals & pets we had had and they were many , tarantulas are by far the most interesting & intriguing of all ! Hoping to make a nice collection.

The site is really awesome , very helpful and informative with great energy on the forums. I am really glad such a site like Arachnoboards exists!

[BenjaminBoa]

Hey there, my name's RJ (the username is off my Boa's name) I am somewhat new to the hobby, I have owned a G. rosea, A. metallica, c.cyaneopubecens, and an H.lividum. I also have a colony of paper wasps in a critter keeper, my two boa constrictors and the occasional spider I catch around the house lol.

 

[scribbles]

Hi,

I'm scribbles and I've been visiting this site for years to find the answers to all my burning spidery-creature questions. A couple months ago I acquired what I believe to be a P. audax female (named Amy) and decided to keep her on the grounds that I don't think they're native here and didn't want to upset the eco-applecart. Since then I've been here on the regular, and thought it was about time I just went ahead and signed up. It's nice to be here.

 

[ohwhataday13]

Hi from Michigan!

I have always wanted a tarantula, and I will be getting one in a few months. Im so glad found this forum and will be camping here for a few weeks or months. I research EVERYTHING before I leap. I have many hobbies, so lots and lots of reading. If I dont understand something I keep reading it untill I do. So Im off to read and search before posting (Member of other forums, so I know the ropes).

 

[CZER]
