    Becoming part of the pokie club now!
    So I was telling myself I wouldn't get any more inverts until after I moved out...

    ...I was lying to myself. Went to visit Amanda from Tarantula Canada today with Alex.B, and came home with a Poecilotheria regalis, I'd give it maybe a 2" legspan. :banana:

    (sorry it's a really bad pic. Every time I touch the container it just goes to huddle on the bottom so I can't get a good shot)

    Beautiful pickup, they definitely have one of the nastier bites for tarantulas, caution is advised! :D

    IT'S ABOUT TIME!!! Lol, congrats on the new T. Wife and I were going to hold off until our daughter got a bit older. But now we have 7. 2 Regalis, 3 P. Metallica and 2 Pedersini. The regalis are beautiful when they get bigger.

    Thanks! And yeah, the plan is "Just don't get bitten" :P after seeing RobC's bite report video from a female not much bigger than mine, it doesn't sound like a walk in the park :P
