I've got 2 albo slings. They couldn't be more different. One of them thinks its a genic. It thinks everything that goes in the enclosure is food, so I keep my fingers well away lol. The other one Is calmer but very timid

I just got a Nhandu Chromatus sling, they are fast growers and big ones at that! I know it's a challenge keeping and raising slings but it is so rewarding as you watch them grow up and you have a stronger bond with them :). T keeping is quite addictive, I have 19 going on 20 lol.

Just noticed you asked this! Just a small collection, all new worlds. Mainly slings.
B. smithi
B. auratum
B. albopilosum x 2
Lasiodora parahybana
Dolothele diamantinensis
P. sazimai

I was into tarantulas for a long time before I took the plunge. I used to be extremely arachnophobic to the extent that I even became scared of insects! Particularly the long legged ones. I remember visiting a house with a G. rosea in a tank in the living room years ago and being completely horrified that someone would want to keep a large hairy spider as a pet. I started watching documentaries about tarantulas out of morbid fascination then discovered there were loads of YouTube videos out there and fear gradually turned into love and obsession. By then I was reading as much as I could about them too. But it took a long time before I finally felt ready to get my own.
