Re: Profile: Reaper

i have never been bitten by a tarantula, and hope to never be!
usually rose hairs are very docile. I have one that you can poke, prod, lift up a leg, she doesn't care.
I do have some others that i won't bother. You can tell when they want to be messed with or not. lol

I have been bitten by my rose hair and my hand was swollen for two weeks.

No bites received here either! And that does not sound good at all, 2 weeks? All I've heard of is that it feels like a bee sting....but that can't be true. What did it feel like? :/

I was confident enough to try picking him up again after a few days of leaving him alone. He was great! Once I took him out he cuddled into the palm of my hand and tried to sleep. You could nudge and play with his legs no problem

My female got me with both fangs and she didn't let go for like ten seconds I got a pretty good invenomation and it hurt like ****. Also she is quite a big girl at almost 6 inches in diameter. For some reason my female is super aggressive and bites anything she is like a cobalt blue!!
I will star6t a thread later today with pics.

Holy crap, those ten seconds must have been one of the longest 10 seconds. I couldn't imagine getting bit, ugh. She's huge too, mines so tiny compared haha.

That would be awesome! Pics are great
