Does anyone keep spiders here?

Or does anyone know of any good spider forums?

Thanks

I used to keep a few tarantulas. They are great pets

Keep Spiders?

Move to Sydney and play with the funnel-webs in your backyard.

I got an orb spider in my front yard. The web it made is so big and so much stronger. I hosed the web, and I couldn't ever break a strand.

I even used a broom handle and had to keep walking further and further backwards because the web just kept stretching.

Anyway, the next day the whole thing was rebuilt.

some advice if you really want to get into the spider hobby is to visit the next reptile convention or show in your area.there are always without fail spider breeders who can help you get started...
