Hi everyone.
I've been here for a few weeks so I thought I better introduce myself.
My name is Stuart and I live in South Wales. I grew up with exotic animals and always wanted a spider, They are fascinating. About 2 years ago my stick insects finally passed and I wanted to fill the gap, I realised that Tarantulas are quite cheap if you get the slings and they don't take up too much room. I wanted to get one, but needed to know what I was doing beforehand. I spent about a year researching and went for a Tliltocatl Vagans for my first sling. I have had her since Feb 2004 and is now a Juvi and doing very well indeed.
I have now been into spiders for 2 years and have a nice little collection, 20 tarantulas and 3 true spiders, (including old worlds) as well as various other insects, cockroaches, millipedes...
I am not into handling my T's unless they climb onto me, then I use that opportunity to take a picture if they are not running over my head and across the carpet.
I love this new hobby and love learning more and more, I spend most of my time researching still as everything is constantly changing.
A couple of my babies. My Tliltocalt Vagans juvi, Neoholothele Incei Gold juvi and my Lasiodora Parahybana juvi.
