Nice to meet you folks. I am just a novice Tarantuologist ... OK, I make up my own work for it.
Anyway, I have hated and had a fear of spiders my whole life. Then I saw a vid on YTube and it fascinated me. I started investigating and with my wife's approval, we now have 14 new kids. It's a great pet for us as we live in a condo and both work two small businesses and we don't have time to be responsible to a dog or cat, etc. But spiders, oh yea. The wife even has her "own" Tarantula.... Arizona Blonde!
Everyone, stay safe.
Thanks. Yesterday I had a Pink Toe Guyana crawling on my hands and when it went to my palm, I cupped it with the other hand over it for a few minutes so my wife could help me rehouse it.
Probably that sounds a bit "sissy" but I watched the young lady at the pet store let it crawl all over her arms and she wasn't over 5 ft. tall and thin as a rail. Now if she could do it, well...
