A companion channel for my Tom's Big Spiders blog, this channel is devoted to arachnoculture and the husbandry of tarantulas. (https://tomsbigspiders.wordpress.com/) After keeping a G. porteri for over 16 years, I decided that I wanted to add another T to my collections. Little did I know that this would begin a new obsession. With over 250 specimens and 100+ species, I'm now hopelessly addicted to the hobby. I'm NOT an expert, and I'm currently still learning about keeping these fascinating creatures. In fact, there are so many species, that I suspect I'll still be learning years from now. A teacher by trade, I enjoy passing along what I've learned and helping other in their successful pursuit of this hobby.
