Thanks! I'll shift to snakes couple of months ago then I'll shift to T's again. Tarantulas are more interesting.

Hi there all,

I live in the West Country and have been keeping tarantulas for a year or so now. I have definitely been bitten by the bug

My son came in one day announcing "Rosy" was here and i turned round not to a friend but a Chilean Rose!

Rosy subsequently turned out to be a male complete with tibial hooks.

We now have one adult male Grammostola Rosea, an adult female Brachypelma Bohemi, a juvenile Acanthoscurria Geniculata and a young Theraphosa Apophysis. I quite like the idea of breeding the Goliath.

I fancy a Poecilotheria Metallica next.

Regards,

R

Hi R, welcome to the forum, nice to see another West Country member. As you have realised, collecting T's is very addictive, you will find lots of help and advice on the forum.

Hi again and thank you.

I'm really looking forward to a great community especially as a show has started up not far from us (Bugfest SW).

I already have my beady eye on a Ephebopus Cyanognathus and i could justify a B. Smithi too as my better half said that would be her choice.

Oh the Chile Rose has decided to make a rare appearance!
Must go and admire him...
