Each time is like the first time.Also if you exhale towards it, it will jump to get away from the rush of air. I tell all my friends that want to hold my spiders to not laugh nor talk towards the spider while holding it. I prefer if they even keep their mouths closed, just so it doesn't jump to its death.</blockquote>
