new guy from texas

[justin81]

hey everyone.

I'm justin. I'm planning for my first BP. A few of my friends have normals and I've always wanted one, but could never talk the wife into it. After 8 years she finally said yes.

I belong to a few reef tank forums and have always found great info on them. I started searching around for a BP forum and found you guys. I didn't even know there was such a thing as a morph until I saw them on this site. I was blown away. I had seen an albino once at a reptile show in Lewisville TX, but that was it.

Now I'm saving $$$ and doing as much research as I can. I'm hoping for a male spider by August or so. Had to make a deal with the wife I would not spend more than $250-$300. I originally wanted an albino, but they are still a little out of my reach money wise. She's put up with all my other expensive hobbies for years and wanted to make sure this wasn't another one. (10k on reef tanks and 10k on guitars and music stuff)

I hope to learn as much as possible and thank everyone for sharing all the info and wisdom they have to offer.

Welcome! Realize that if you want a morph (or spider) in about a month or two many breeders will have all their babies up for sale for this season. They will all mostly be online, and I don't recommend a pet store ball. D: So either get one shipped or Texas breeder. :]

Enjoy your time around this forum!
