Yesterday as I was caring for my tarantulas (I have 80 at home right now (52 are spiderlings in vials)), I realized that taratulas really provide the perfect balance as far as pets go. You can be as hands on as you want and take a lot of time, or you can let them be, requiring little care, and they do great. Even with 80, I can always find time to care for them. Try and do that with other types of pets.
Anyway, thanks for letting me share. It was an excellent tarantula weekend!
By the way, how many tarantulas do you all own? I'd love to see if I'm way out there with the amount I have, or whether I'm right in line with the rest of you.
By the way, here is my current list of tarantulas:
Acanthoscurria geniculata 2 (White Knee)
Aphonopelma seemani 1 (Costa Rican Zebra)
Avicularia avicularia 3 (Guyana Pink Toe)
Brachypelma albopilosum 2 (Curly Hair)
Brachypelma emilia 1 (Red Leg)
Brachypelma smithi 1 (Red Knee)
Chromatopelma cyanopubescens 1 (Green Bottle Blue)
Citharischius crawshayi 1 (King baboon)
Cyclosternum faciatum 1 (Costa Rican Tiger Rump)
Eucratoscelus longiceps 1 (Stout Leg baboon)
Eupalaestrus campestratus 1 (Pink Zebra Beauty)
Grammostola aureostriata 2 (Chaco Golden Knee)
Grammostola pulchra 3 (Brazilian Black)
Grammostola rosea 2 (Chilean Rose)
Nhandu carapoensis 20 (Brazilian Red)
Pterinochilus chordatus 1 (Chocolate baboon)
Pterinochilus murinus 37 (Usambara baboon)
