You were way back in the archives finding this post, weren't you? We now have a sticky where we list our pets, but not then. This post just after MrD changed over to this server... The other one had little goblins and pixies playing around too much, wrecking havok at times.

Good to know that y'all are interested enough to read these first posts here on this, the new site :clap: :clap: :clap:



Course it isn't quite new any more and a few thousand more arachnoholics logged in

Do you think we need to post what type of tarantulas we have, one last time for the new and future members. Even those of us who have been here since the beginning may want to browse though and see what one another have. I know we've done this before, but it is a new, and we can get it out of the way in the beginning. Hopefully the worms won't be tunneling through any more and these will get put into the archives later for future viewing.
