I'm Lindsay, I'm a bird person but got into keeping spiders around the first lock down. Common story - massive life-affecting phobia, decided to get over it. Bought a jumper, then for some reason wolf spiders and huntsmans (huntsmen?) It's going okay, still afraid but the fear lessens as time goes. Weirdly I've always been fond of spiders (little weirdos haha) despite the phobia, and probably why I have mostly stuck to trues though I got my first T a few weeks ago, a nhandu sling.

Hi. I don't feel comfortable posting names, but I'm new to Arachnoboards and I'm obsessed with jumping spiders. I read this is where you can introduce yourself.

Hi everyone, my name is James and I have been keeping a tarantula for about a year but I got bitten by the bug as they say. I also have tropical fish, a mantis many stick insect and I keep cockroaches and mealworms as feeders for my bearded dragon as well as a host of plants, mostly tropical, a few carnivorous, some cactus and some oddballs. Thanks for having me arachnoboards.

Hello everyone!

I’m quite new to the hobby but I’ve been interested in it for a few years. Recently got my first T about a month ago, a Brachypelma emilia. I am also a herp lover and have a few reptiles.

Aside from my interest in Ts and other inverts I am a digital illustrator. Some hobbies and things I like are reading comics, RPG video games, anime, and horror movies.

Hey everyone, I'm Greg and live in France. I'm into Ts for about 10 years. I keep species like M.balfouri, C.fimbriatus, different variants of P.murinus, K.brunnipes, D.pentaloris and some others. African and Asian species are my favourites. I have been breeding a lot of reptiles during more than 20 years but i'm about to stop this kind of animals. I have been lucky/glad to get a lot of reproductions from them, but i can't do everything at the same time so i made my choice :)

In fact, as time passes i've felt into Ts. But I don't give up the reptile world though, I still do herping in my country and in the foreign countries. (Asia, etc). Also, I'm looking for going to the South of America and the USA for herping, photos etc.

Well, I'm here for exchanging informations with other keepers, to learn more (It's pretty hard to find people and infos in FR, so..).
Excuse me all for my english but i do my best ;)
That's it for now, see you soon guys on the forum and feel free to take contact ;)

Welcome aboard, friend! You're English is superb (better than some native speaker's I've encountered), & it certainly beats my French, at least. Sounds like you'll be in good company here.

Heyyy everyone! I'm Kelly, and I live in the North-West of England. I've had lots of experience with mammals and birds, a fear of arachnids until about 2 years ago...and now I'm owned by 9 tarantulas and 1 true spider. I'll probably end up with more as I enjoy keeping them so much. Although having already read many posts before getting my first T's, it seems that I'd not signed up as a member, so here I am. Outside of animal-related interests, I enjoy gaming, reading, creative outlets and looking after my niblings. :):spider:

Hi i'm Theophile, i'm 26.
I'm studying and working in computer science in Quebec.
And i'm here, because it's been like two or three month that i begin to look into the insects/archanide world.
I began to look at ants video and read some articles about them and quickly i began to read things about spiders.
And recently i come across a video that talk about vinegaroon ! And i found this little creature so COOL !!!!
So to quickly resume everything i'm here to learn everything i can about vinegaroon and jumping spider, and see if it's possible for me to adopt one when i consider myself ready.
Here is my presentation.

Hi, I’m David 33 from Texas.
I’ve been in the arachnid hobby for 3 years on and off. Some of my favorite species are Psalmopoeus Cambridgei, Grammastola pulchra, Ceratogyrus Darlingi, and Caribena versicolor.

I gotta be too high on caffeine cuz every I touchon ‘introduce yourself’ I get nuthn.Good grief! Not new to spiders,I’ve always viewed them from a guarded distance.But at a franchise pet store I recently watched a bunch of employees harassing a tarantula,getting it to rise up to defend itself,for fun.After threa… dissuading the mfrs,I bought it. It’s a Chilean rose.Just looking for a place with info on its continued care.Someone mentioned Botar by Eights in Kansas…
