Just pics of some of my tarantulas

ahh ok

for some reason we are not even allowed to keep any T's in Perth.

Hmm, why's that? Not even native species?
That sucks!

 

[snakeluvver]

No they're not allowed to keep inverts at all for some reason

Yes, I had a rose hair, she was my first T', but she died of old age
Common names confuse me quite a bit, I like scientific names much more.
What should MRK stand for?

No they're not allowed to keep inverts at all for some reason

That really sucks big time! :O

im not a big fan of spiders but your collection is amazing , do you keep them all in similar sized enclosures i guess with 65 they would be pretty compact setups.

No that's not mexican red knee (B. smithi), but it's similar, this one (B. auratum) is called mexican flame knee.

No offense taken

Thank you very much, I love them all. They are my fuzzy 8-legged teddy bears!
It depends on their size, spiderlings are in appropriately small enclosures (at least 4x leg span X 3x leg span) and bigger ones are in glass terrariums. But evetually everyone will be in their own glass set-ups!

Hairy ugly looking creepy things but looks like you have a good collection

 

[craig.a.c]

I've never like spiders but they are some amazing looking Ts.

They are purdy!
Thank you at least for "looks like you have a good collection"
I have many more tarantulas, these are just few of them!

I've never like spiders but they are some amazing looking Ts.

There are many colors and sizes of tarantulas, some are just amazing with their color and looks! There are cca. 900 known different species of tarantulas and many more that are still unknown. Every year they discover new species.
Thanks for checking it out at least, it's much appreciated! :notworthy:

 

[Jazzz]

a lot of people would say that about snakes as well...

i really wish i could handle mine now =/ shes pretty happy just chilling in her hide though

No, unfortunately I don't have any aussie species, they are hard to get here, if not almost impossible. :/

They're bloody beautiful mate. Awesome and thanks for sharing.

Thank you for looking at them, and I'm glad you like them. They are really cool animals.

 

[snakeluvver]

Meh, aussie ones are boring lol they all look the same.
Some of those pics I dont really like cos they look like huntsmans lol hunstmans still give me the creeps.

Yes, most aussie T's are some shade of brown, Pokies are really colorful, I love P. formosa, P. subfusca (best looking pokie IMO), and P. metalica is nice but overrated.
I haven't really considered owning H. lividum (cobalt blue T') as they are hidden in their burrow most of the time, so seeing them is a rare occasion. But I will be buying T. blondi or maybe T. apophysis!

Thank you Torah! I love that tarantula so much, she's very calm (one on the Harley), IMO the best beginner T' of them all.
