New must have wish list.

[Kymura]

So, not so much a wish list as a
"I feel I must have " list.
And we haven't done this in a while so,
without further adieu
and, in no particular order--



Brachypelma albopilosum Nicaragua
Grammostola pulchra
Ephebopus rufescens
Iridopelma hirsutum
Tapinauchenius gigas
Thrixopelma cyaneolum
Phormictopus sp violet
Phormictopus auratus
And any Psalmos I don't yet have. Or duplicates of those I do have.

(Brachypelma Emilia was on here but getting her next week)

 

[leaveittoweaver]

Good list.

My absolute must haves right now are:
E. Sp Red (Seriously. I need one.)
T.Gigas
T.Violaceus
E.Campestrus
G.Pulchripes(I'd really like an adult female though)
G.Iheringi
And every single species in the Acanathosscuria genus.

 

[Enn49]

Plesiopelma longisternale - never seen these for sale
Sahydroaraneus Raja (formerly Plesiophrictus raja) - doubt I'll ever get one as they're so expensive
Ephebopus murinus
Iridopelma hirsutum - I miss Sasquatch so much
Monocentropus balfouri
Thrixopelma pruriens
Ceratogyrus sp. Mozambique
Omothymus violaceopes (ex. Lampropelma violaceopes)
Pamphobeteus ultramarines
Cyriocosmus leetzi 'Colombia'
Cyriocosmus ritae

What happened to Sasquatch?

I also would love to get Iridopelma Hirsutum!

Sasquatch died after a really bad moult back in January (that awful month for moults), I lost Culli 2 days later too.

Molt time is the worst
Breaks my heart to lose them and I always feel so bad for you guys when you lose one.
(Added Iridopelma Hirsutum to my list too.)

 

[Zaiaku]

My little 3 T collection must get bigger. And I have a few in mind. So my must haves

P. Vittata
P. Metallica
P. Murinus
L. Violaceopes
E. Cyanognathus
H. Villosella (In a communal group)
S. Calceatum

And tons more. As I said, need to add to my group. Love my G. Rosea (red variant) C. Cyaneopubescens and N. Chromatus but...but...I need more! I'm so addicted and you all are enablers!!!! Thank you! XD but these are the few I have my eyes on getting in the near future...I hope.

 

[kormath]

Mine is easy. i have 2 "must have lists" must have now, and must have when i can get the space etc.

Must have now is finished again with my last 2 purchases N. coloravitillosus or however you spell it, and L. itabunae arrive tomorrow.

B. andrewi
B. annitha
B. auratum ***
B. aureoceps
B. baumgarteni *
B. epicureanum
B. fossorium
B. hamorii

[Psyrocke]

My must haves are Tappies!

Tapinauchenius latipes (but haven't seen these anywhere in awhile )
Tapinauchenius sp Union Island
Tapinauchenius plumipes
Tapinauchenius cupreus
Tapinauchenius subcaerleous
Tapinauchnius elane
Any tappies I can't recall at the moment
Tapinauchenius gigas

 

[MiaWolf42]

I keep adding to my collection... one on the way now.

So, my short list is

Monocentropus balfouri

(For now)

 

[VanessaS]

Cyriocosmus bertae
Cyriocosmus elegans

How can you not want a tarantula with a little heart on their abdomen?

Don't forget the Cyriocosmus perezmilesi too

 

[MiaWolf42]

Great, another tarantula I like!

 

[Thistles]

I have a Plesiopelma sp. "Peruvian Bronze Valentine" and she would have a heart on her butt if she hadn't kicked off a perfect heart-shaped bald spot where her mirror patch was. If I ever get her to molt, I'll post a pic of her new suit. She just looks silly now. I have a ridiculously... ambitious, let's say, wish list. I'd really like some Phoneyusa sp. soon, though.

I got my first tap a few months back and was really feeling this genus but now it pretty much hides in a dirt web and I rarely see it out. Has really turned me off to wanting more. They are so pretty though. I really love T.Cupreus! I have T.Sp columbia.

Well hell, don't want a pet hole. Guess Tappie is off my list.

Yeah that's just my personal preference though. I am learning a lot through the last couple years what it is I do and don't like in my collection. I really am not a fan of tarantulas with not so great feeding responses. I am not a fan of avics. And even though I have two, I'm kinda on the fence about Brachys.

And there's a lot of species I'm simply indifferent to. I have a GBB, she was my second tarantula and I think she's stunning, but her behavior is enh. She's also gone through weird phases, like for a month she was actually very defensive and would threat pose. She's also pretty skittish. She is in premolt right now and hasn't eaten in months though which is always frustrating to me because I love to watch her eat! Hopefully she molts soon.

My T. violaceus and gigas have always been fairly visible.

 

[Psyrocke]

They aren't a pet hole, only when young and its also individaul. My Tappie is out more now that its warmer (sp Colombia) and my violaecus as @Enn49 says is out frequently. They tend to burrow when young, and out as adults.

 

[VanessaS]

Don't forget the Cyriocosmus perezmilesi too

Enabler!
I have Tarantula Canada bringing me a 1" female C. elegans to the show on June 26th. They also have berate, leetzi, perezmilesi and sp. Rio Nanay. They're all so tiny! Although I know that they are fast growers.
I think I will stick with the elegans for now.
