Great photos pugs and duga. I would hate to get a set of those stuck into a finger....ouch!!! Hope to be up your way soon duga, may have to get you to show me some....
Oh my...that is scary! I have serious Arachnaphobia (sp)? I even have nightmares on a regular basis about being covered in spiders...so i could never own one.
Not really, we had a big female slightly larger than that one and she was quite placid, they actually usually defend themselves by flicking urticating hairs from their abdomen rather than biting.
This is a Chile Rose that my wife used to have, they are the absolute best spider to keep, they are never aggressive and can be handled safely by anyone.
I've heard people say that about something...can't quite think what....it wasn't about spiders, it was ummm.....oh something else that starts with s....what was it? :?: :lol:
