i love spiders, im planning on getting an ornimental this weekend at the reptile expo, but im not sure, im think if their is a indian ornamental for a good price, ill take it

Grats on breeding those spiders, the adult look great, i would love to do the same thing one day, just to experience it.

i used to have a rose haired tarantula but it suddenly one day got super aggressive and i got rid of it to a person who could take care of its needs better

Oh man, pokies are my absolute favs. I keep P. ornata, P. miranda, P. subfusca and P. formosa. Fantastic T's

This is the 2nd and 3rd successful breeding I've had, so it's pretty new to me too ;-D Great hobby

Freebody · 10-25-10, 07:53 PM

I love spider and scorpions and centipedes, hell i even hold my rouches i breed for my new sav from time to time. if it scares me i have to do it LOL The first time i even held a T it ran so fast up my arm and onto the back of my neck and it was about 5 inch across LOL you should have seen that look on my face lol i could have sold it as a S@#$ happens poster LOL

LOL! I've had a couple of those moments myself. I ended up with a nice sized (7") MM ornata on my pants over my groin once!! Got him off safely and was like WHEW!!

I haven't bred any of my pokies yet, though I have tried w/4 females (ornata) 1 looked very gravid but died

, a couple others have molted. Pokies are a little harder to breed IME.

I've got a def male formosa that I'll be attempting to breed with my females as soon as he matures. Glad you liked that girl, all of mine look like that under the flash, too bad the purple doesn't show up without bright light. Still pretty and most of mine are chill. You want me to keep you in mind for a couple?

Freebody · 10-25-10, 08:41 PM

im in canada, it would be a too much red tape or i would for sure. their is a good breeder of Ts coming to the show on sat and sunday and hes downsizing his collection, he said so he will have some good sales going, and with my new job going well i might come home with a couple Ps

ill let you know for sure

BlindOne · 10-25-10, 08:43 PM

One of the coolest T's in my collection - Panama Blonde

I love this girl, you don't see these in the hobby all that often, can't wait to breed her

Please do man, love meeting other 'inverters'

I notice you mentioned scorps, are you keeping any? I've thought about those before but I'll -never- keep a 'pede...those things seriously creep me out. Funny, eh?

Freebody · 10-25-10, 08:57 PM

ya i have 2 emperor scorpions, i hold them often. very cool, i hand feed them and they just grab the food with their picers and ever so gently find a soft spot and inject the venom with ther tails. It s so sweet, I want to buy a veitnames centipede so bad. they creep me out as well, which is why i want one so bad lol that blonde one looks alot like my old therapusa blonde, i think thats how its spelt, Goliath birdeater :P but it didnt have that pretty pinkish color on its legs like that one their. very nice.
