At the time there was almost nothing available in the way of advice on husbandry, this was before the internet after all. In the last 10 years I have been looking at Youtube videos and cruising the tarantula forums, not to mention the seller's sites, but I was still not in a living situation where I could keep the woolly little devils. Fast-forward to about a year ago when I bought my first house. After finally figuring out how to keep them comfortable, and where, I bought 5 slings last spring. I now have a Chromatopelma cyanopubescens, a Davus pentaloris, a Aphonopelma seemanni, a Lasiocyano sazimai and a Phormictopus sp. Dominican purple. It seemed like the perfect time to join the forum and here I am. I am looking forward to learning a lot from you guys and enjoying our shared passion for these amazing creatures.</p></blockquote><p></p>
