I've always wanted a Tarantula but could never justify doing it until I found myself at a Reptile Expo this weekend and it was love at first sight, so to speak. She's an adult Brachypelma albopilosum(Curly Hair). I have not been able measure her yet, but she's pretty big. I have only had her for 3 days.I am looking at setting up a better enclosure for her, as I picked up a premade tank at the Expo so I had a home for her. I am not a big fan of the screen tops, however, and was wondering where everyone gets their acrylic enclosures from.Also, if anyone has any first time T owner advice or just anything you think is a "must know" please drop the knowledge. I've been doing so much research, but would love for my girl to be as happy as she can be. Her name is Lilith and I've presented some pictures! I do know she must have been rather stressed at the expo as she's got a bit of a bald spot on her abdomen. [ATTACH=full]56285[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]56286[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
