My Pet Birdeating Spider

awesome spiders my old work mate has about 40 different spiders :eek: his house is a spider shrine :p

for a few he has a special license i believe .

he mounts the skins they shed in like a frame look exactly like a real spider very good.

love the indian one very nice markings :cool:


A) Pics!
B) Run awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
 
I really dislike spiders but I can look at the pictures and can see they're quite interesting, however never in a million years would I own or hold one! They give me the shivers.
 
Lovely spiders. I'd like one but I wouldn't be allowed it in the house, the girlfriend is scared of them :(

I'd also be a bit worried about holding one if it was dangerous!
 
Does not compute. Why would you keep a pet that would be very happy to murder you given the chance? It's not a pet, it's a dangerous prisoner.

That said if you can show it fetching a stick I may be willing to revers that opinion.
 
Probably pooping it, being stuck in a cell with a giant spider :(

About as safe as being female and in bed with Fred West.

I hate spiders and if anyone can invent enough gas to fire up into the sky that would kill all spiders (infact most insects) instantly, then id pay them.

But we need insects...
 
My brother's Mexican Red Leg, Bob, and his Chilean Rose, Herman were both quite friendly actually. We used to handle them, and would do so by placing a hand, palm up in their tank. They'd then sense the warmth and climb on. Once on though, they didn't do much. Slept and cleaned their fangs mainly.

Perhaps your Salmon Pink Birdeater's aggression it stemming from the fact that she's sick of crickets, and wants you to dip your hand in your pocket and buy her a free range budgie. Then film the results for OCUK. :D
