Tarantulas and Spiders

Great enclosure ideas! Been trying to settle on a few T's to pick up and it just gets harder and harder to chose, especially now that I've been exposed to the variety in roaches, beetles, amblypygids.... It'll just never end

I'm still getting the idea of a roach colony in my room as being ok haha if I can get over my extreme dislike I might start one just so I can have two or three Ts since we all know if you breed own food you can have more easier ha

Well if you breed roaches then you can have 100s of Ts :D

I'm building a roach rack now. I should have starter colonies soon.

My must haves so far are A. metallica, P. irminia, P. cambridgei, N. chromatus, G. pulchra, and a red phase G.rosea, but I've yet to really encounter a T I didn't like the sound or look of (other than the dwarf species I suppose, but my mind may change on that). I keep making wishlists from the various invert websites available sections. There's also a member on arachnobards who had sling "packages" earlier this year that I was looking at as well. Too many choices!!

Very nice list so far. I'm very fond of the Psalms.

They're gorgeous! Absolutely fell in love with the huge female P. irminia that was kept at a reptile shop about 2 hours south of my town, but she wasn't for sale (probably couldn't afford her if she was). I'm determined to have a handful of them eventually

How would one of these work for an adult? Thinking Obt but could change hahahttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/12/17/meba7e6a.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/12/17/zuquhe6a.jpg

I think that would work for a midsize adult. 5-6"
Might be a little short for an OBT.

K so that would be more for a sub adult Obt or should I just go find something taller for a sub too?
