Message: <blockquote data-quote="swimbait" data-source="post: 38015" data-attributes="member: 3515">Hey everyone, the names Bobby.I started keeping Ts about 6 years ago and kept a decent collection of P. murinus P. irminia P. cambridgei C. fasciatum A. versi and A. avics. A lot of my collection ended up male so they died within 3 years, the few I had left I sold when I went through the phase of not wanting to keep anything that I couldn't feed out of my freezer. I also keep boa constrictors and use to have monitors. I moved back into my parents house while I am attending vet tech school, unfortunately with that came finding a new home for my Nile Monitor. He now resides at the Colorado Gator farm. Anyone who has kept a large species of monitor knows how much effort you need to put into it, so now being monitorless I have a lot more time on my hands. Back in august I purchased a A. avic sling at an expo for 6$, I figured why not seeing as how I still had some of my previous sling cages. I knew after purchasing that sling that this was the start of another collection. I purchased a P. murinus, which I have plenty prior experience with, from a pet shop about a month ago. Now I just recently purchased 10 P. cambridgei slings that are going to be a future breeding project. I hope down the road to find somebody to trade half the slings with for non sacmate p. cambridgei. I also got a LP sling as a freebie, so now I am at 13 Ts. I think its safe to say I am back in the hobby. I'm back at the point where I am dreaming about spiders again <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
