Hello everyone,

Firstly...... My name is Joseph and Ive been lurking around this board for a while now and I must say that this is the most informative and entertaining forum I've ever been on. :D

Figured it's time to get my feet wet.
Looking forward to being a part of it.



I currently only have 2 T's in my collection (soon to be 1)

L. parahybana (Mature Male) & G. aureostriata

Im also Looking to buy a few more.

Anyone else in the NYC area ?

welcome!

I also have a L. parahybana...but it is only about three inches..
and several other slings. Hopefully some of mine turn out female. What a bummer it must be to know that your T doesnt have much more time. (I am new at this too.)

welcome, nice to have you here!
L parahybanas are my favorite! I have 4 of them, 2 big females, a sub adult male, and a sling.
They are just awesome!

Hello Joseph,
I have about 26 tarantulas, one being a 1" parahybana. I'm from NYC too. It's good to see someone else form NY.

What do you know. I have those 2 species as well, along with a few others. Personally, I don't think that you have the guts to just have 2 tarantulas forever.;P Like most of us addicts here, you will have more and more and more and more... You will find yourself unable to stop having more. You will go absolutely insane about tarantulas. Soon, you will think that there is nothing more important than tarantulas. Then, come the uncontrolable sniffing of your tarantulas nonstop. Oh wait, I mistook my powdery stuff for tarantulas...
