it's a long shot, but since i want to sell them locally (aka, no shipping), it's worth a try....

Asking prices:

STOMP!!!!

only shop i can think of is carolina pet supply, might let you sell them on consignment there.

4/6/2006 11:43:49 AM

The Pet Pad in Ca.ry sells them. They give breeders store credit.

4/6/2006 12:51:47 PM

thing is, these guys aren't full grown. so i don't know how much they'd want them, because they're not the normal "pet store" adult size yet.

4/6/2006 2:37:40 PM

Sell them as bootlegs in the Exotic Show parking lot.

4/6/2006 4:30:46 PM

bump

4/6/2006 8:10:05 PM

Man I would love to have one!! But the husband is completely creeped out by spiders

4/6/2006 10:20:03 PM

^he'd learn to love them. my fiance even thinks they look cool....

the costa ricans are really beautiful. and they only get about 4" in legspan.

4/6/2006 10:22:12 PM

^Kevin liked the Costa Ricans. I refuse to have something in my house that can escape and kill my other pets though.

4/6/2006 10:50:50 PM

i wish i could push a button that would get rid of spiders forever.

4/6/2006 11:05:57 PM

squish

lutra, i've heard of cats killing 11" legspan goliath birdeaters and never getting tagged. pets are a lot more safe than you think.

4/6/2006 11:38:59 PM

If you keep the chinchillas in a cage, they will be safe from tarantula torment.

4/7/2006 12:27:32 PM

I tried and my husband thinks the coloring is great, but he just worries too much that our dogs will somehow knock the tank off, it'll smash, and then we won't know where it is at any given moment....

Aren't girls supposed to be the ones scared of these sorts of things

Cool thing is that he said he's okay with a snake now that I've offered the prospect of a tarantula.

"Sell them as bootlegs in the Exotic Show parking lot."
classic

is the show this weekenD?

4/7/2006 2:53:27 PM

Actually, the chins have a perverse pleasure in torturing any bug like creature that enters their domain. They pin them down their tear off their legs slowly one by one.

4/7/2006 3:02:06 PM

i killed about 25 of these in mexico with a shovel

4/7/2006 3:14:24 PM

$30 for a spider fuck that
