    I want to buy a female tarantula and supplies for it.

    Does anyone know where I can find one that's been collected responsibly/bred in captivity?

    Thanks.

    Reptile Haven,Fishamble street in Dublin.

    Ben always has nice Ts in there for sale.A bit expensive though.

    You could also buy online and get them shipped over from the UK.

    Try

    http://www.thespidershop.co.uk/insect/index.php?cPath=21_34

    In my opinion the best and most reasonably priced supplier around.

    Reptile Haven (Loads of males in there though)

    Wackers (Likewise, lots of males but an awesome selection of types unlike Reptile Haven)

    Fintastics (I've heard about this place selling Ts but never been there myself)

    Boardwalk Pets (I got my first girly there, well cheaper than any of the other shops)

    But to be honest, Dublin is a rip off for tarantulas, don't even bother. I got most of mine sent over from the UK.

    Try: http://www.thespidershop.co.uk/

    or

    http://www.tarantulabarn.co.uk/ (Got my second T here, a gorgeous full grown female red type chile rose)

    I also have gotten a number of spiderlings from a lovely chap by the name of Peloquin on one of the spider forums. Search him up as he usually has some adults going and is lovely to deal with.

    Hope that helped. (:
