Help I think I'm obsessed!

[Eightleggedchris]

Hey everyone,

Ok so ive been keeping tarantulas a short while (not a year yet) i started off with a Chilean rose then bought a pink toe juvenile, a Mexican red knee and orange starburst baboon slings. Now i have a new wish list of:
Green bottle blue
Giant white knee
Salmon pink

Although i will wait till my slings are at least juveniles haha. Is everyone else like this? Always wanting more, i had no idea when i got into this hobby i would want more haha.

I think I'm ill

No, although I've owned my first T for less than a month, I'm already looking and anticipating my future buys. I do believe this is a normal thing for all members of the hobby, and it sure is great.

Here in the States there is an advert for crisps that states something to the effect of "Bet you can't have just one."

This applies to T's as well...

They are just so interesting and facinating creatures!
I know when I move out I will have a room/basement for my T's!!!

I bought my two slings not long after my first T, a B. smithi juvie. It's an addictive hobby!

Absolutely addicting! I own 3 Ts and I am still learning everyday. I plan on ordering slings soon.

Oh I know! I was thinking the same thing lol I read up on T's a couple of times a day and I am always on this forum! My brain absorbs everything about T's like a sponge I just love it! I need a bigger room too, I a running out of shelf space. HAHA

I am addicted to the big big T's I just love that I can have a creature so old and Goliath in my room that I can watch and be apart of everyday. But I love all T's too! I don't have a favorite because all T's have different unique qualities that make each of them fascinating!

haha we all should chip in and buy a house together and use it to house our tarantulas haha

[BigTGirl93]

UGHH! That would be so awesome! Oh it is so going to happen!

 

[Eightleggedchris]

Haha the question is.... Where

 

[harleyqueen]

we need a deserted island but a few helicopters so we can fly over and get food for the ts etc.

Haha the question is.... Where

Well I know my first house wont be my "dream house" but if it has a spare bedroom I will fill it with t's! And when I do have my dream house I want to have almost like a mini lab room for my t's, with shelves, table, counter top, cabinets, sink..etc. I've got it all planned out lol
