    I'm getting myself a lesser female tomorrow to go in my little collection :D she is my spiders future girlfriend. I bought one and got the bug, within two months I'll be on number 7 :) If I had more money I'm sure I'd have more but we all have to start somewhere! :)

    I'll tell you my pairs in case that helps with ideas?

    Pastel (f) x Bumblebee (m)
    Albino (f) x Het Albino (m)
    Spider (m) x Lesser (f) - Coming tomorrow!! :D
    Het GS (f) - thinking of pairing with my bumblebee unless I can afford a visual genetic stripe male in the next couple of years :)

    I won't be ready to breed for around 2 to 3 years. I was a little impulsive and instead of buying my females first I've grabbed what I can where I can :)

    Yeah I was also impulsive with mine. Actually I went to buy a tarantula and fell in love with this guy which i bought instead :oops:

    Since them I'm reading, educating myself and came to same conclusion about breeding BPs. I'll never be sorry for this impulsive buy tho. He's such a special nut case I came to love forever <3 Probably the first and the last in terrarium. Maybe his sweetheart others will just be in rack system. Easier and less space consuming option.

    The only thing is what to do with all the hatchlings then? ;) And i must move to a bigger apartment before anything.

    Yeah, I live in the smallest flat in the world! I'm looking to build a rack as a space save :D

    Yeah in small apartments there's waste of space with terrariums. They look nice and everything but waste space so yeah. I'll be building a rack in a closet for my new ones :P Already making plans in my head just need to go shopping for some kind of a rack or closed that can be rebuilt in rack way ;) Or maybe i'll just rearrange clothes in available closets and rebuild them ;) Saving money is always welcome :rolleyes:

    I might be buying two 6ft shelving units for £6 ($10 ish) which I'm going to join together to make a rack then all I need are more heat mats ;)

    Dirty cheap ;) I believe here such wooden shelves cost around 15-20£ but it's quite cheap and would do the trick :P I've seen a picture of such a nice Victorian closed made into a tank rack ... damn lovely

    I'm thinking of something enclosed at least from one side so the humidity and heat can be kept at bay.

    BTW I'm from Europe $ signs do me no good :P And converting using google works magic for me
    :bow:

    Yeah I use google! Sorry didn't check your area :) These shelves are in a house clearance and the woman wants rid so hoping they will work out :) If I can make a rack very cheap I can't complain :D

    Couldn't agree more ;) I'll probably just modify one of existing closets into a snake rack ;) Just need to find cheap plastic tubs.

    Need to find me interesting females in near future :P
