[vicareux]

You're missing an Asian sp. lol

True,though apart from pokies,asian T's are quite uncommon here. I find a H.himalayana every now and then,but i always rather go for a baboon

They are indeed. I’m excited! I can recite Tom Moran’s husbandry video for them word-for-word, I’ve watched it so many times.

Listen I was pretty bold stepping into old worlds with only three years of experience. Was it the best decision, probably not but with the help of this community I know everything will be okay.

You’ve got this!

I’m still a relative newbie to the scene, having only raised a rosea before that lived for over 20 years and then having a 7 year gap between that one and the two I have now.
But research, research, research has helped me a TON.

For people like me in Australia, we have to jump straight away to old world tarantulas with 0 experience. We have no choice in the matter!

Oof. I didn’t even think about that. Y’all poor Australians Right into the OW’s straight from the womb.
Off topic question for you - Is it true that there are no squirrels in Australia? Someone told me that once and, if it’s true, that boggles my mind because they’re a dime a dozen here.
