a bite worries me more, know how big her fangs are. i didnt notice any itching or feel anything till about 10-15 minutes after id put her back in her home

I must confess - I'm more bothered about the hair flicking than being bitten - it must feel like you've grabbed a cactus - ouch! Good tip about the sticky tape for getting them out though.

Also, while the cats have the run of the house, I really daren't have a tarantula - if it flicked hairs at me that would be my own lookout, but if it got loose and flicked hairs at one of the cats I'd never forgive myself ...

I will just have to admire other people's spides instead.

thanks.
shes a chilean rose tarantula an they are unlikely to bite. when threatened the flick hairs or will hold thier front legs up to warn you off
Tawfik47 Posted - 23/04/2012 : 11:50:43
Nice how can u be alert before been bitten ?
stupid question i think, but i lack info about spiders

When I went to buy Sulah, there was an adult male tarantula in the rep room (don't know what sort; he was chocolate coloured and huge) and when they lifted another faun off his tank he was straight out to see what was going on; very inquisitive; beautiful guy.

she doesnt really do much has a climb now an then but thats it really, great fun to feed though

Had a Chile Rose for 20 year called Snoop.
Great pet.
No longer with us though :(
chrisc Posted - 18/04/2012 : 07:38:14
i used to hate spiders but not to bothered by her now.
thats one reason why i took her on to get over my slight fear of spiders.
yes very easy to keep fresh water an a cricket now an then, job done

Leedxmg Posted - 17/04/2012 : 18:05:29

Tawfik47 Posted - 17/04/2012 : 14:23:22
