Hello!
A few days ago I received my very first T, a juvenile Phlogius sp. Kuranda.
Here in Australia we can only own natives, as foreign species are illegal. In the future I plan on nabbing a couple more species, like Selenotypus plumipes, and Coremiocnemis tropix.

Just today she (not sexed, just assuming and hoping) molted into 5th instar and it was so cool to watch! It reminded me that I should join a T forum just in case I need to ask any questions, and also I wanna see everyone else's Ts!

My personal favourite is the Hapalopus sp. Colombia (Pumpkin Patch Tarantula) just because they look so cool, and I'm very jealous that I can't have one haha.

Your not the only one who is jealous, here south africa it's illegal to keep native tarantulas without a permit. No OBT's I'm afraid
