Haha, some great responses!!! Good!
Funky Fish14: thanks, I haven't been into spiders for very long (end of november). Sami is, I think, 6 months (I'm not really sure), it's less then an inch long. Wow, three versicolors? they are very beautiful. The pokies, I was a little hesitant at first, but they are only 1.5 inches. Maybe when they get bigger I'll feel more comfortable. They are very interesting to watch with their substrate covered webs
If I get another tarantula, I'd like to get a g. pulchra. I've heard they are great 'pet' spiders.
deep6er: 22 t's??? that's awesome. I don't think the BF would let me get that many (he only knows of 5 of 6 spiders, shhhh). You should post some pictures, I would like to see what you've got.
