[QUOTE="nyxeeeee, post: 224792, member: 41852"] Hi all, my name's Nyx and I'm a former arachnophobe. I got into the hobby of keeping tarantulas after my husband and I started raising our first beetle larvae a few months ago. I realized my fear of insects, especially tarantulas, was based on the unknown and decided to learn more about them! We got our first tarantula, an unsexed adult B. Boehmei, around the middle of May. His behavior of hiding his face with his legs when stressed helped me empathize with him, which basically eradicated my fear of spiders. I still jump when he moves too quickly, though. We also recently went to a reptile expo and grabbed a female adult A. Chalcodes, and several slings: a G. Pulchra, a T. Vagans, and a GBB. We also received a Togo Starburst sling as a freebie (who I am definitely terrified of, despite his tiny size)! Anyways, it's nice to meet you all, and I'm glad to be in a place where I can yell about how much I love staring at my fuzzy pet rocks. [/QUOTE]
