Hey There, Fellow Spider Lovers

[DontFearSpiders]

Hey there, I'm DontFearSpiders—though I have to admit, the name's a bit ironic considering this awesome site is all about tarantulas! I’m based in the Western Cape, South Africa, which, sadly, means I’m not allowed to keep tarantulas here. Still, that doesn’t stop me from loving these incredible creatures!

At the moment, I have a lovely brown widow named Nyx, and I’m excited because I’m hoping a new member will be joining the family soon. While I may not have a tarantula, I absolutely adore them and dream of having one someday.

Looking forward to connecting with fellow tarantula enthusiasts here! ️

Welcome to the forum buddy.

Hello and welcome. I know you mentioned you can't keep T's . Does this mean even native species of T's?

 

[DontFearSpiders]

Sadly yes They're very strict here. You need a permit to catch wild species, and it's pretty hard to get a permit. Not to mention it's really hard to find a tarantula in the wild here,

I pray that maybe one day you can get a permit or they change the laws allowing you to keep some T's one day soon.
