Hello everyone, my name is john and I am new to this forum. I have never kept a tarantula before or any exotic pet but I'm going to get one or two at the San Jose Reptile Show. Im so excited :)

Also, i am planning on attending a meeting, but not sure if i could go since it's a little far away from where I live and no one would probably drive me there. :(

I found this website on Arachnoboards. It's a pretty cool website and stuff. :D

I'm not really sure which one I'm getting but, I think I'm going with a Brachypelma species. I'm getting a sling. I'll probably end up with two T's :)

I'm from the bay area, close to San Jose.

Welcome on board John. You have found a pretty terrific group here.
To bad you did not know about us before. We just had our third quarter meeting last weekend.
We will have another one coming up in the last quarter.
