Where is the best place to get one of these?
I can never find one in a pet store but apparently they are like the most common basic ass spider on earth.
Is there somewhere online you can order them? I'd rather get one in a store and not online so I know it's healthy and it wont show up dead at my doorstep but I don't even know where to look for one, no pet store I've ever been to has ever had one. Where the hell do people get these guys?

>NB4 Go to Mexico and find one
It would probably be cheaper to own a pet Mexican than drive that far.

I assume that's a really easy answer for someone in the U.S.

So I'll bump with some of my rare tarantulas

I'm actually in the US and i can;t find one, that why I'm asking. I can;t believe how hard they are to get for me. It seems like your only hope is if there is a breeder in town who is selling them which of course in my podunk shithole there isn't.

I was going to talk shit but then you post made me realize not everyone has muh freedoms.

Op should still be able to use a search engine...

BTW I hate spiders.
Caught a tarantula- it got out, found it in the hallway one night going to take a leak.
Probably hit the ceiling and almost had a heart attack.

It's ok, some people love them.

Personally I find no fun, in not going and search for the spiders myself, but I understand if people think that a new pet it's something you collect at your doorstep.

Yea, I really like them, but they are mean little shits that bite like merciless pit bulls and its 100 bucks lol.
I wanted the red knee so I could hold it and such, this is kinda the opposite direction.

While I'm not in the US and I know fuck all about spiders, I ofter order fish online, sometimes from far away places like Thailand and Indonesia (I'm in the UK). Every respectable seller will have a DOA policy and will refund you if the animal turns up dead or sick. Point is, buying online isn't that bad.

Have you been to your local pet store to see if they can order one in for you?

I've bought cichlids (fish) online. Can't believe I got an entire breeding colony of mpanga reds without a single fatality (6 total)

Well they can live for 30 years so the spider may say the same about you.

I actually did go to a local store and ask, first they ordered the wrong spider and now they seem to be avoiding the topic altogether. I don't think they want to help.

Aren't cobalt blue tarantulas venomous compared to most other species kept as pets? As in, not deadly but their venom can cause some serious muscle cramps?

I saw a 5 foot albino diamondback rattler for $499 at my local pet store in Vegas, if you're wondering if its legal- depends on state/county.

You can trust any reputable online breeder to provide a living specimen.

I ordered a Chromatopelma Cyaneopubescens spiderling years ago from several states away from my location. It arrived in about 28hrs and was healthy and ready to go into its enclosure.
