    Good deal on boaphile cages...

    Hi, I am looking to get into collecting tarantulas and I want to advance my collection. Can anyone suggest what tarantulas I should purchase? I already have a Sunburst Baboon, Rose, Brazilian Black and a Red & White. Can anyone help me and tell me what else I should get?

    Mexican Red-kneeds are pretty. I've never had one, but I'm lusting after one.

    there are so many to chose from, what types interest you? size?, color? aggression? i like the larger ones myself. the chaco golden knee or yellow stripe is cool. it is in the same family as rosehairs, gets big 6-8 inches and is docile like rosehairs. i also like the ornamentals (pokies)
    anything in the poecilotheria species. hope this may help.

    thanks

    Like Kavmon said there are so many to choose from. Are you just collecting or are you loking into breeding. If you are just collecting ornamentals are very nice Bird eaters command attention but if you are going to get into breeding pair up some of the ones you already have and get some experience then branch out. Good luck on what ever you choose to do.

    I'm just collecting right now, Maybe later on I will get into breeding. I am looking at a Ornamental Baboon I was wondering if I should get it any advice on that? I also am looking at Vietnam Birdeater. I'm not sure if that is its proper common name I haven't been able to find anything on it. Also a Stripe Knee. What about pairing pinktoes I heard you can do that. Can anyone give me some advice?
