  • New T!

    I brought my very first pokie yesterday!

    Absolutely love her/him already, no wonder so many people are into this species. I have asked the guy I brought her from to see if he can hook me up with any other pokies so hopefully I can get a nice collection going! This is my second aboreal after having an avic avic so although its a big step up, I'm always prepared!

    Think I'm going to name her Decoy, not 100% on that though. She [I HOPE] is a p.fasciata by the way.

    Welcome to the world of Pokies,

    They are amazing spiders, i was never really into arboreals and my whole collection has been mostely terestrial and burrowing untill the last year or so.

    It does become an addiction and now a good proportion of my collection is taken up with asian arboreals.

    Congrats on the new addition.
    Wayne.

        nice, have you supplied it some cork bark or similar?

        I have some P. striata and possibly P. regalis that I was going to offer at BTS.

          I have recently put a tiny bit of cork bark for her to hide in and she's taken to it. This is pretty much my first sling so hopefully it'll all go well! I picked up this decent 99p container from the 99p store and it works a charm! Just put some vent holes in it and she seems happy enough

          Going to go pick up some more slings soon, got my eye on a s.cal and a few more pokies! I've also been after a p irminia too but the only one I can find is a male
