Hi there one & all!
My name is Schön Venter living in Nelspruit.

I'm extremely NEW in the GAME but, it has already taken on a life of its own!!! I've planned out & nearly bought all the cages for my baby and I don't even have a her/him yet...
My MHC Feeder's arrived today together with their home, so that I can breed food for my T's & their kin... As well as all the cages, substrate, heating etc.

My 1st addition to the FAMILY is on her/his way to me complements of ANGLE!
It's a Lasiodora parahybana (Brazilian Salmon Birdeater) I haven't decided on a name yet but, will get there...

Please feel free to drop me a note if you've any advice & Thanx for all the material that you folks have already posted.

Welcome Groenie

Salmon Pink for your first T seems pretty solid They love to sit out in the open and attack whatever you throw in the tank so its a good choice.

Don't feed your slings MHC's because they are very hard, their exo-skelton i mean, larger T's like your Salmon Pink will handle them when they adults. I stand corrected though on this but just research it.

Read up on the-spider-shop.com about breeding roaches, it's mammon's site and his on now and then and sure he'll help you out if you need assistance.

Again, welcome and hope we can help and share good times together.

Ahoy Groenie

Your next T should be a Lasiodora Difficilis, another ferocious eater. Have a mini comp to see who consumes more!
By joining this forum, you have put yourself in great hands, these guys have helped me out so damn much. I trust you will be well looked after

Peace

Hi Groenie, congrats on you first tarantula, what a nice choice! What are MHC?
