Awesome. I can handle her and everything. But every now and again she gets in a mood and I don't handle her. Now the black earth tiger I don't even touch.

Re: Love my tarantulas
Pretty cool! One of my spiders is also very tolerable of handling, but since i overreact to their hairs i never touch mine (if i touch the bedding my skin is itchy and irritated for several days)

Re: Love my tarantulas
Tsubaki is good at convincing people that spiders are adorable with she talks about them though lol.
Every so often I catch myself thinking of doing a nice set up when I get my house. NO idea what kind, but pretty sure it will be something bigbut calm enough to handle...just in case I get the nerve up lol

They are interesting animals. I've always been intrigued by them. All you have to do is put a some substrate in ( enough that they can dig) and a hide. You can also put some fake plants in and just let them go

A tarantula with deadly venom? I'd love to read a toxicity report on this species saying it can kill a human.

They have tried it on mice. It dies within 30 mins. Not very many people are willing to get bitten by a spider. But they say since the mice only live 30 mins after bitten that ur should be the same in a human. Crazy right? But I'm not willing to test this out
