Message: <blockquote data-quote="Carsten" data-source="post: 43859" data-attributes="member: 3624">Hi Everyone,I realized I've never introduced myself to the forum. I started like most people with a 2year old Grammostola Rosea only in January and that was it. I was hooked <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />. Since then I have added a 1 year old Chromatopelma Cyaneopubescens (Greenbottle Blue) and just a few days ago when I was alone at my local exoreptile shop, with no wife holding me back <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />, I bought a Phormictopus Atrichomatus (Red Island Birdeater) sling and a juvenile Lasiodora Parahybana (Brazilian Salmon Pink Birdeater).I live in Malaysia so I have technically the T's at my doorstep but I stick at the moment with the NW T's to learn more about how to handle them. Later I definitely want to add some more T's from my region like Singapore Blue <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />. Besides having T's as a hobby I have also a business objective connected with them. I train and coach people in how to get over their fears and phobias of insects, spiders or snakes (or any other stuff they fear) by using hypnosis and other techniques. So some of my T's have to work once in a while <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />.That's it for now.Cheers[ATTACH]9591[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]9592[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
