Re: My arachnids

Mexican red knee


For some reason I can't find a picture of Agony, my Emperor scorpion. I guess that means I should take more.

And cell phone picture:
One of my widows

Re: My arachnids

If I came across Irony and the Widow in the wild..or in my house, it would cause me to scream involuntarily and begin running away as fast as my bad knee would allow. I would then remember that they can't run as fast as I can as I find myself upstairs searching my bathroom for a can of hairspray so I could freeze them so they couldn't get me.

They are great to look at - in pictures! They give me the heebie jeebies! LOL

Trants are cool though and don't scare me like other spiders.

Re: My arachnids

Cool stuff. I've never seen a whip scorpion before so that was a learning experience.

the spiders are strictly hypothetical for me as Becky is deathly afraid of all spiders. She doesn't even like spider ball pythons. LOL.

Re: My arachnids

Zara whip scorpions are harmless, but yes, I would do the same if I saw a widow

I know they are dear. I just don't like creepy crawlies. They send shivers down my spine.

I'm pretty sure you're correct. I dunno if I could ever keep a widow myself.

Re: My arachnids

My son used to keep Black Widows as pets. I was ok with that untill she started laying an egg sack. Thats where I drew that line.

Re: My arachnids

don't they use whip scorpions in the 4th Harry Potter movie to demonstrate some curses on?
