Pokies man gotta love em

Yeah I know Poecilotheria are pretty neet as far as colors go and this thread might just be a brag but I have had for a few weeks now.....drum roll......metallica, sp. tigris and miranda. I can not wait till they grow as they are all in a shed.
I have been getting into more 'tree' spiders instead of ground spiders cept of course the odd specie such as vitalius and cyriocosmus.
Basically I was wondering what the readers and posters [yeah I know] are into, curiosity man

Thumbs up

I agree with you. They are exquisitely pretty but the prices blow my budget away. Ah, my paycheck for a Gooty Sapphire!

Ahhhh the Gooty...yeah I got three of them and three of the tigris , miranda looking to get three of all poecilotheria species and see if I get pairs to breed.
Neet T's man but some reports have said the bite is worse than most so I suppose handling is out , as far as that goes I handle none of my T's .I would not want an elephant picking me up

After spending the money on the spider, I would not want to have it escape.

You're lucky John! I really dig Pokes also. I used to have a pretty nice collection of them and other T's, but I had to sell them all :-(
I've never seen P. metallica or tigris in person, I bet they are gorgeous! I raised some P. miranda and they were awesome looking as they grew. I am sort of starting over with T's now; I have 4 A. pupurea, a versicolor and a blondi sling.

Hey Kelli
Just keep collecting and I am sure you will have something to trade for these expensive little buggers.

They are all shedding and the little P.m.'s are starting to look greyish - blue...neet I tell ya neet. Kind of funny that the tigris seem leggier than the others.

You have a P. metallica and P. miranda! I'm now turning green with envy. I'm not much of a treespider person, but I would make an exception for those two.

I've mostly got ground dwelling Africans and itchy Brachypelma species. I do have a couple tree dwellers. A. versicolor, A. purpurea and Avic Avic, and H. maculata.

I would sell internal organs to have a pair of Encyocratella olivacea.
