Oh no, temptation again! Pinktoes for real cheap! Help?

[greensleeves]

I have found someone locally selling baby pinktoes at 3 for $10.00 Canadian, and I immediately thought "Here's my chance to try my own communal avic project".

I even dreamt about Ts last night! I'm doomed...

You sure are doomed! Go for it. I don't know if I could do a communal set up just because I would be so sad if one of them got eaten! You are definately an addict!

I'd be sad too, that's what's holding me back. On the other hand, these would be new slings I wouldn't have had a chance to form an attachment to. I would probably force myself not to handle them as much too, just to distance myself.

In the end, right now I'm thinking that, tempting as it is, I will hold out for a versi sling, then an a. metallica, plus an a. furriana... er, hurriana. And... heaven help me, pokies are starting to look really cute, but I won't, I really won't... I find enough ways to use up my sick time without a puke-fest from spider bites. I know myself, I would want to handle it because I am a risk-taker deep down, so it's best to avoid temptation. =D

If it were me in your situation, I would go ahead and get a few of them. You can try the communal set-up, just make sure you have a big enough tank and plenty of hides for them.

These slings are all from the same eggsack right? That also helps if you plan on putting them into a communal set-up.

All from the same sac, as far as I know. I'd give them lots of space and keep an eye on their progress - if one or two happened to grow up into males I'd have to scoop 'em out to prevent inbreeding, I guess. Then maybe find an unrelated male to take over the 'harem'. =D

Oh, this is too tempting, maybe the guy will be sold out by the time I call...
