Well I am going to be getting some new Ts soon most likely

B.Smithi
C.Crawshayi
OBT
N.Coloratvillosus
P.Irminia

and I cant decide on the 6th is thinking

H.Lividum
C.Fimbriatus
L.Parahybana
or another OBT for a possible breeding project.

I am basiclly looking fo a colorfull, out half the time,cool,a aggressive eater and defensive, and one that generally has a long life spand.

Also I have heard split things on the H.Lividum. some say pet hole but others say out every night so also awnser this to.
:D :D :D

have you considered C. fasciatum? they have great color, great eaters, decent life span and are easy to care for. They are Terrestrial and are out most of them time if left undisturbed. great Ts :D

Anyone care to make a "what should I get" algorithm? I'm POSITIVE the mods would sticky it. LOL {D

I'd go with the L. parahybana if I were you. If you're ordering from a notable dealer, they might even offer LPs or other neat Ts such as N. chromatus etc. as freebies.

Don't hesitate to ask for a freebie! LOL. Some dealers only include a freebie if you ask for one.

Just be polite and ask them. They aren't going to refuse you service or harm your T's in any way.

Lasiodora Parahybana all the way! Maybe the dealer will offer it as freebie? In that case I'd get an OBT and an LP as freebie.

out of the five I would go with L. parahybana you won't be able to get it as a freebie from swift, but you will probably be able to get some of the other ts on your list as freebies from them. You may also want to chek out TararntulaInc.com they seem to also have competitive prices and great service as well.

Paul Becker has very good prices aswell. HE HAS GIVEN LPs AND OBT'S AWAY AS FREEBIES.

Indian violets burrow and you never see them again, so they aren't the most exciting T in the word. :(
