I finally bought my first tarantula (a rose hair) about a month ago. Her name is Ophelia (or "Fifi" for short) and she is between 2 and 5 months old, according to the pet store I got her from. I wasn't sure about getting a T from a store considering they don't really know what they're doing most of the time but when I saw her she crawled up to me and gently pawed at the glass and I fell in love with her. I'm really enjoying her company and I'd like to start collecting tarantulas and getting more involved with the hobby, preferably after I move to a bigger house and can devote a room specifically to my T's so as not to disturb them. I really look forward to interacting with people here c: I still have a lot to learn.</p></blockquote><p></p>
