hi everyone. i am new to this wonderful world of eight legged beauties. i have always been a fanatic of spiders, tarantulas, scorpions... but i have finally resolved to buy one. well, now i have two. both are Chilean Roses, and very very gentle. but i am looking to buy:
at least one Cobalt Blue (haplopelma lividum), a couple Brazilian Blacks (grammostola pulchra), at least a few Green Bottle Blues (chromatapelma cyanopubescens), and a few other species including the holy grail of my Ts, (theraphosa blondi) the Goliath Birdeater.
i have been to many sites on the web, as well as a few pet stores in my area. my questions are these:
how reliable are the dealers on the web?
is it safer to stay with local pet stores?
how expensive is the care of a large collection of Ts?
any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks.
