Rather start off with the more common and easier to keep species, get your racing stripes and then move over to the more experienced species ;) ...


AMEN, Brother or Sister! Most of the fun isn't once you've arrived. It's the adventure of getting there!

And, me too. I'm beginning to suspect that the whole issue of proper care and husbandry of Avics has much more to do with proper acclimatization as they develop from newly emerged babies to adults, or from living in the rain forest to adjusting to your living room or bedroom than it does with humidity, ventilation or temperature. I need more data, however, before I can come up with some sort of Unified Avicularia Care and Husbandry statement similar to the Chilean Rose one.

Stay tuned.

In the meantime, enjoy your little 8-legged enigmas anyway!
