What kind of T would be good for me to get?

[rm90]

I already have a G.Rosea. I am going to a expo this sunday and want to pick up another T. What kind of T should I get? I don't want one that needs like humidity and I want one that is hardy can take different temperature ranges seeing as I live in Ontario, Canada.

What are your opinions? Thanx.

I'd go with a GBB (Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens)

Hardy and very beautiful!

I agree !

BTW where is this T show in Ontario ?

 

[P. Novak]

I'd have to agree with the two posts above.

Or what about a brachy, like vagans or albopilosum? smithi maybe?

Well its not a T show, its the Reptile Expo. But they always have tarantula vendors there as well which is what I like.

i agree with the others! GBB's are the STINK! (edited for reasons of a profaine nature )

 

[phil jones]

how about b- albopilosa or a b- smithi if you want to go bigger then how about L - parahybana or a- geniculata just get what you really want and read up on it first -- phil p.s. good luck with any ( t ) you get

 

[johnjallorina]

G.pulchra or b.smithi, loads of others that r good too.

You could also maybe check out some arboreals. The avics are all very nice and very docile for the most part. Something to experience both types of T's. I know when i first started i never had interest in arboreals, now after getting some, I prefer them.

 

[elyanalyous]

avics are good.... also it is worth looking into H.incei they are a Dwarf, but thier pritty hardy too... and i keep mine like i do my rosea... and they web (although not as much as a GBB that i've seen, but almost as much!)

Where in Ontario is this?

 

[rice_smuggler]

www.reptileexpo.ca - it's located in Mississauga.

Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens - great choice

 

[ErikH]

I would say a.geniculata. g. aureostriata is good, too. I don't own a GBB, but it is on my wish list. Do you want something more colorful? Then the GBB is a great choice, as would be a. bicoloratum, or b. smithi.
