Hi I'm Toeboe as on AP and RFUK and any other sites I stumble across. Tony to my friends. I sometimes feel like the poor relation only having 3 T's, but you can blame my wife for that. Still I have a wishlist that she knows nothing about!
I am returning to the hobby after an offspring induced sabatical. I used to keep T's and reptiles a long long time ago,,even before the internet made it easy to find out about stuff. But thats for another time.
Hope this site keeps me entertained.
Tony

Thanks for the welcome! For my 10th T I’m deciding between a Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens or a Pterinochilus murinus (RCF). I’ve been researching the latter for about 4 months now, I really want one but I’m still crap scared of them lol Oh well, I’ll have to take the plunge sooner or later. Thinking about it… I might just get both… but then I’d have to round my T’s up to 15... Darn my tarantula related OCD!!! Spider

Hi Everyone, thought I'd jump on the arachnid bandwagon.

Never kept T's but I love any and all scorpions having got my first one on my birthday about 7 years ago and since then I've been addicted (although I don't have enough space in my room to keep them anymore Sad

).

by Emmy-Lou 2009-03-22, 05:09

Welcome to the forum Tedlin. What scorps do you own and how many? Smile

No problem Very Happy

Both nice choices although the Pterinochilus Murinus is made out too be alot worse than it is I have a NCF and 2 RCF, they have never even threatened, mainly speed tbh.. out of those two although Murinus are stunning you never really see them, where as the C.cyaneopubescens well mine is out on display most of the night and sometimes during the day also.

Peter.
