Very happy to see that I'm not the only one with a love for terrestrials :pompous:

Being new to the hobby, I currently only own three species. For my first T I got a darling little Euathlus sp Red female that I completely adore. She's gentle, patient and beautiful, and just everything I could want in a beginner T. After I got her I got bitten by "the bug" big time and had to have more. Not long after I got my first T I found myself with three Oligoxystre diamantinensis slings and a Acanthoscurria Geniculata sling, which was a freebie. That is one tarantula that can really eat! The O.diamantinensis eat well too, except for the smallest one. I haven't been able to get it to eat at all. I'm a bit concerned about it.

Anyway, I also ordered a young G.Pulchra female, but she came DOA. To say I was devastated would be an understatement. :( One of the main reason I got into the hobby was so I could have one of these gorgeous tarantulas. I've been heartbroken for weeks, it's been ridiculous :sorry:

Happier note now! It's been great to see all the amazing tarantulas that everyone has collected, thank you all for sharing. I've had fun reading through this post! :)

Lottery winners are unlucky next to you!!:astonished::astonished:

I so very wish you were in the US...geez, you'd need to block your profile and messages as you might get accosted for those slings! Can I have a few if I move to Germany? Will you teach me German, it will be worth it for a few slings.


Nothing but envy from me buddy, old pal.

LOL! Yeah, I know I was EXTREMELY lucky. Everyone said it would be just a dud, and when it turned out it wasn't I was a bit overwhelmed because I hadn't planned on having babies... I gave most of them away for very little money and traded 20 more for the female P. sazimai. Come on over, you can have a few, no problem :)
