When can I collect? Lol
Hmm, what would be the best size for me to get one? I dont want it so tiny that I'll need to keep in a little tub, I'd rather it go straight into the exo terra..

It's funny because I'm sure I know exactly how you feel. I cannot think of a single reason why I should get a spider. I'm freaked out by them, I probably would freak out with the webs let alone the spider. I even hate bugs of all types etc including my livefoods I have to use.

So why do I want one? I don't know. I don't even know if I really want one. But when brat said, "go on, I will if you do", for some reason I feel like heading to the herp shops and seeing what I can get...

Plus the 30x30x30 I have begs for an occupant. I'm angry with myself for wanting one when I don't want one.

I can't see it becoming a real possibility unless it also happens to eat my girlfriend.

Yeah, especially as the young GBB look nothing like the adult GBB! I'v had mine since it was 1cm, its been great watching it grow and change colour!

I go into my local to get my livefood and screw my face up at their Chile rose and say "eww" but I want one for some reason too
Im also scared of crickets, locusts, roaches etc but look how many lizards I keep and I can assure you they get well fed by me lol.
It stupid, I'm so insect-phobe yet I have a large kitchen bin with cockroaches in, various wormy crawly things and a load of crickets and locusts and now I want an overgrown spider!
I'm not gonna tell my other half.. I give up asking him now as he says no, as he did after my first 2 lizards, he just learns to put up with it

It can but its not ideal,too big to keep track really but it can live in a tub, then the tub put in the enclosre with a loosened lid so it can rehome itself when big enough, lol easiest way, but not ideal for a 30x 30x 30 yet

Me too. I got one soon after I first saw c_strike's viv! I love the webbing. I also have a 1ft cube exo-terra waiting for him. He's in a small RUB at the moment, but as soon as he's big enough I'll transfer him into the cube. I've had him since he could play a jig on a 5p

I live near Brum so if you need moral support I might be able to help, and 12" tweezers are good!

GBBs are not the cheapest spider, but are beautiful.
