| Message | Hi, your blog is really great. I love the pics. I just bought a G. pulchra .75 a week ago. The lil' stinker has grown a lot already. It loves to eat! I have 10 Ts in all, 1 G. rosea sub-adult female & 9 slings of various species. My pulchra was very light in color when it arrived, now its' rear is almost solid black, it looks awesome already! I'll check back from time to time & see how your "herd" is doing. De'Andrea |

| Message | Just got my very first G. Pulchra. The info you have on this site thus far has been some of the best & most-detailed I've been able to find apart from forums. Keep it up & thanks for your dedication! Love these lil critters.  -------------------------------------------Thank you Christina. I agree with you about the lack of information on this species. My goal is to compile what little data exists out there in to one central location, then to continue to add to this data through my observations and the observations of ohters. Be sure to keep us posted on what you learn from your G pulchra. They are beautiful, aren't they. |

| Message |  nice collection m8..not long got myself a m n female, they are in a large tank 2gether seperated by some chicken wire. can they live 2 gether?, or when do u know when they are ready to mate?. appreciate any help.. also got 09 Beautiful Nile monitor - red iguana - 2 royal pythons n a jungle carpet python.. ohhhh and 5 dogs lol peace kris...cum on England sort it out.. 
---------Hey kris, sorry for the delayed response. I would be very leery about keeping two T's together in the same enclosure, especially with "chicken wire" as a separator. The male is mature when he develops tibial spurs, and his pedipalps become enlarged for sperm collection and delivery. Females are generally mature by the time they reach 5"-6" diagonal leg span. The male will begin to tap, or "drum"when he is ready to find a female. When the female feels the vibrations of this drumming she will respond in kind. I will send you some articles to read. |

| Message | Thanks for the info on the Blacks. I'm new to this T and plan to follow what you on thw journey. My 3 seem to be doing well at the moment. Wish I knew why two died though. We need to set up a bloodline database so as to keep the lines separated too. ALan -------------------------------------------------------------- ALan, Thank you for the kind feed back. I am glad My research was useful to you. Please feel fee to post any information, or observations you come up with. I want to make this a collaborative effort to help build the knowledge base for this species. As for a bloodline database, I agree completely. The dilemma, however, is keeping records on such a large population. Each sack could potentially contain 100's of new tarantulas to be tracked. If you have any ideas please feel free to share. I have developed a numbering system for my collection, and will track which spiderlings go to whom. --Scoolman |

| Message | Update on the A. metallicas - They are doing great! Castor and Pollux are side by side in their homes and are mirroring each others actions. The hammocks they have built are almost identical and the same height above the strate. It was a great pleasure to meet you; may your efforts to increase the number and improve the availability of the black beauties be fruitful and you enjoy caring for these wonders for many, many years! --------------------------------------------------------------- Larry, I am glad you are happy with them, and they have a good home and great caretaker. I was very pleased to meet you as well. --Scoolman |
