Hello! Name's Paul and I live in SC. I've been fascinated with spiders from an early age and just took the plunge with my 1st (a rose) last Sat. Learning a ton from the boards & having a blast so far.

Intro

Hello everyone my names Jake I live in Illinois and I'm 31. I've just recently become interested in keeping/collecting tarantulas. I don't have any yet but I'm thinking my first would be a Mexican Fireleg or a Green Bottle Blue. Don't know exactly what I'm getting into but I'm reading up a bunch and learning quickly.

Hi

Hi everyone. My name is Rafael. I live in St. Petersburg FL. B. Smithi is the T that started it for me. While my collection is comparatively small (4 total -B. Smithi, B. Boehmei, G. Pulchra, and P. Miranda), that number will surely increase. You can say I caught the "bug". Enjoy the boards and hope to learn a lot of new things here.

Hey, name's Randy and I'm new to the board. Originally from the States but now I live in Mexico. I have seven tarantulas:2 B. Vagans, 2 Mexican Tigers, 2 Mexican Flame Knees and 1 African Starburst Baboon. I joined to keep up on things. Here,not too many people like tarantulas. They kill them.:eek: Just looking for people like me who likes to keep and talk about tarantulas. I also have 2 parrots,1conure from Argentina, 1 pair Fischers lovebirds and a pair of budgies.

Good luck on finding Flame Knees. I have 2 but I live in Mexico. They are great t's. My adult female is very gentle and always seems hungry. She loves pinkies and Madagascar hissing ROACHES. My other flame knee is a lot shier and a bit aggressive. She will only eat crickets. This is a bit of a problem because some times I can't get these. Good luck with all your t's in the future. You can contact me at ornamentaltarantula@hotmail.com if you have questions about Flame Knees or just want to talk.Bye Tarantulamex ( Randy )

Hi Jake, new to Tarantulas myself and just signed up for this forum, i'm from the Isle of Wight, UK and have 3 spiderlings and now really getting into it. Hope to get a few more soon. Would love to get a Fireleg myself also and also a Giant Green pink toe. All the best with your colection in the future. Nigel.

Hi, my name is Seth. I'm not new to the hobby, just new to this site. I have been keeping all kinds of T's since high school (now I'm in grad school). I have various new world as well as old world T's including members of Poecilotheria, Psalmopoeus, Monocentropus, Chromatopelma, Avicularia, etc. I think my favorite genus is Poecilotheria, because each species in it is so different looking and colorful.

I have successfully bred tarantulas before. I've bred Haplopelma lividum, and Poecilotheria regalis successfully.

This appears to be the most used arachnid websites. I figured I'd get in and see what it's like. Can't believe I haven't found it until recently.
