Well, I got my first Tarantula.

Scorpions are still the best.

It's fluffy!

It shot a webline.

It's always cool when they do that. I was handling a rosie at a high school outreach once, and she just kept walking between my hands while laying down silk.

Also at the show I ahd never seen a B.Jacksoni and it's tail was thick.
I was not expecting that, I thought it was some kind of deformed Australis, I had to ask teh guy to make sure.

LOL i tought the same thing. Nice T. I just bred mine with robert's male so hopefully i get some babies.

Lori got a sack from her rose hair that was initially over 400 eggs.

Tarantulas have to many offpsrings.

I started with tarantulas and moved to scorpions. I like how everyone calls them fluffy. Oh that's what I should name my smaller rosehair!

congrats on ya new T, i am sure you will not stop there my friend, T's can be very addictive like scorpions

as for myself i started out with T's they are my fav of all time with inverts , but i grown to like scorpions and then i started getting hooked when i started collecting C. hentzi


glad to see you like ya rosia

you need to get you a B. smthi or a Chaco golden knee

I want a B. smithi but T's are a bit to expensive for my taste. I'm sure the scorpion hobby will grow to a size where Lq's are gonna start going for the size of some expensive T's.

Tssss
You can't really see the crickets being killed though,they dissapear under the Tarantula's body, unlike scorpions.

well if you get an arboral you'll see them eat.
-Eddy
P.S I'm not trying to convert you

the only time i don't get to see my T's eat is if they are those Ob. burrowers, like my H. lividums , H . gigas

No one ever will.
I just want one of each of the family. Next is a pede, like I mentioned.

Yeah I'm doing the same thing. I got milipedes, centipedes(lost ), tarantulas, True spiders, and I'm getting a mantid this week. I just wanna have SOME experiace with these.
-Eddy

I'm looking forwards to getting my first mantid

I killed mantids(or walking stick) in Mexico when I was little.
And some vinegaroon type animal that sprayed foul smelling liquid, and also a scorpion (C.Suffusus) And also a snake.


Makes me wish I could go back in time and collect them all.

Sounds like a vinegaroon.

Aztek you know Durango has a lot more scorpion fauna than just C.sufussus PM later I can send you some pics.
