Hello everybody! I'm Calvin. I just recently got my first T around a week ago. She("She" wishful thinking) is a stunning 2 inch Grammostola Pulchra named Moira(Fallout 3) if a girl, or Frankie(just because) or Isaac(Dead Space and my favorite scientist Isaac Newton) if a boy. Here's a pic. Isn't she just adorable!?

Thank you! I used to be at Arachnoboards, but just didn't feel "At home" their. So I also hope that I will enjoy my time here, and I will be sure to ask questions when I need to. Thanks for offering to help out!

Its a pleasure, I know when I started with one T how it was or when I knew absolutely zero. I have never forgotten that, so even 10 years or more from now I'd have the same attitude. I love the hobby, and I will learn each day as the day I started. Please feel free to share any knowledge you might have, again hope its an enjoyable stay.

I just got mine and already want MORE! I want to pick up every one I see at the pet store! There was a GBB sling at the local pet store for $50!

Ah, the addiction haha. Oh GBB Greenbottle Blue Tarantula Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens, great Tarantula semi arboreal I'd even dare to say terrestrial more likely. Easy to care for, likes dry substrate and a water dish loves to web a lot as well. Ferocious eater, also a stunning looking tarantula summing it up as a must have.
