This is a pic of my new A. seemanni
This guy was hungry! It has eaten 2 pinkie mice and 4 crickets since we got him yesterday!

That's one good looking garbage disposal you got there.

Thanks Aidan! Clay is my boyfriend, and when he said he wanted a Tarantula, I have to admit I was less than thrilled. :p
Now, since that first rose hair we have aquired a B. vagans, another rose hair, an
A. chalcodes, 3 L. parahybana and this A. seemanni. I think we are hooked! I noticed that you have an A. versicolor, are they really as colorful in real life as they are in pictures I have seen of them? I'm thinking for "my" next T, it will be A. versicolor or A. metalica. Yeh, I've gone from "terrified of spiders" to hooked. :rolleyes:

They are really that colourful, from fantastic blue as spiderlings to red/green as adults (see pic). One of the most beautiful tarantulas.

ps. You need to watch out now, before you know it your house will be filled with spiders ;)

I know we just ordered 5 Chaco Golden Knees today that will be in on Friday. We may have to get a bigger house, we already have 37 snakes, a pit bull,a basement full of rats and mice and a bunch of lobster roaches. Do you think we qualify as animal lovers?

haha definately:)
The good thing about tarantula's is that they don't take up much room (esp. the little ones). From now on I will only buy spiders, seeing as I still live with my parents and I don't have much room left. My mother was not very enthusiastic about the snake, so I don't think I should push my luck;) So many wishes for the future, snakes, lizards, frogs, I think my house will be a real zoo...
