I got my first Chilean Rose Hair named Jonie (pronounced like Johnny) back in September as a lil' baby. It's been so fun to watch her grow. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Soon after getting her I realized that I really liked tarantulas and wanted to get more as soon as possible! I plan on getting a Mexican Red Knee soon as an addition to my little family. I don't know what else to say as an Introduction other than some of my other hobbies are music and writing. I play bass and have been an avid 90's Nu Metal fan for over three years now. I have recently found a new obsession, which is tarantulas. I first got Jonie because I had a phobia of spiders in general, but, after handling her and having her with me for a few months, I have realized that there really isn't anything to be afraid of as long as you aren't doing stupid **** and that they are really cool. I hope to expand my knowledge on different types of tarantulas and stuff like that as I am clearly new to the hobby.</blockquote>
