Probably going to get some T.gigas slings so I have a male ready for my female when she matures and probably send off my male P.vitatta and GBB when they mature as well, besides that it's up in the air.

Mostly, barring their addition to the Lacey Act, I will be focusing on acquiring various island locales of retics. As far as spiders go, I'll be trying to see if I can this year successfully get a sac from Phoneutria. T wise, now that P everettis have come down in price, I'm going to probably look at buying a few.

by this time in 2015 I'm hoping to have my M. balfouri communal set up, and right after new year I'm going to try for an egg sac from my G. porteri girl again. :) Assuming my male makes it that long and is still fertile.

I'm not ready to jump into breeding yet, but think that's a possibility down the road. My first goal is to learn how to sex tarantulas so I know what I have. It's not going well just by looking at photos. I need an internship somewhere...

2015, I hope to see that a few of my females drop some sacs for me (especially my p. Metallica) my wife is pregnant, so I could use some slings to help pay for some baby supplies (but we do work so if slings don't make the money our job will). But, I do hope to acquire a few species I have not had yet.

My list starts off with loaning out a mm and getting some slings then it will plateau for a while while I get ready to get more cool things like hopefully an M. balfouri communal and a vivarium or two.

2015 hopefully will bring me the only t im openly searching for and have been the last 6 months. A grammostola anthracina I don't care how long it takes or costs I've to have another, I've owned a sling before but it died after it took me 3 hrs to rescue it from a bad moult. Everything else I end up with wont be planned more than a few weeks in advance

2015 will be big for me and my best friend. We have a couple of sacs and oaths right now! I have way too many breeding projects including breeding the love of my collection, my big rufilata girl, amblypgid, mantids, and scorpions! I'm looking forward into rehousing my balfouri communal from my breeding loan. And even producing my first damons! I'm getting back into amblypgid, the biggest reason why I'm even in the hobby! 2015 is going to be the best year of inverts for me ;). Also looking to make more friends in this amazing hobby!

Also we plan on being the biggest breeders of inverts in WNY and Is going to have a table again at our local shows. :) There's a ton of new hobbyists in my area who are looking for experienced hobbyists.

Hmm... T related goals... I'm planning on acquiring an intermediate NW species or two to gain an experience level at which I feel comfortable getting my first OW. I'm also looking for a female G. pulchripes nearing maturity in preparation for the eventual maturity of my male. I'm hoping to be have everything in place for my first breeding project by the end of next year. I would also like to try my first vivarium setup.

Having only just started out...definitely expanding. Not by much seeing as we need a bigger place, rapidly running out of space but yeah... Too many ifs and buts to really say how far we'll go in our first full year.

Going to cap off at 20 Ts for a while, starting a family this year, we'll see where it takes us

I am wanting to get a few more tarantulas, I have a small list that I want to get to add to the tarantula collection. I see myself moving into other inverts though, I am really eyeballing amblypygids. I have a D. diadema and I really want pretty much all the other species. I also think I will be getting more non-theraphosid myglamorphae. On the top of myglamorphae, what else is there to get? I have Theraphosids, diplurids, trap doors, and pursewebs. What else is a myglamorph to get?

I'm not sure what you should get but you reminded me I really need to find some trapdoors!

I hope people are trying to breed them.
