I took a picture of this tarantula at a pet store a couple of weeks ago. Spiders is one of my husband's big fear.. oppps. I grew up in a farm so catching different kinds of spiders was one of the things that we love to do as kids. But of course we didn't see tarantula at our place. I'd be scared of this one too lol.
They're the sort of creature that are good to see through glass!
ReplyDeleteGreat shot.
Rose, this is as close as I ever want to get to one of these guys!! :)

Yes, tarantulas are really scary because they are a lot bigger than the average sized spiders and because of their hairy appearance not to mention that their bites are poisonous. Tarantulas and Black Widows are two of the deadliest spiders thereabout. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.
ReplyDeleteEEEK!!! That is on big spider!
ReplyDeleteNice photo but who the heck would want to buy a poisonous spider as a pet???
ReplyDeleteI am usually terrified of spiders, but for some reason I went through a phase where I thought it would be fun to have a pet tarantula. My mom did not agree. I did get to hold one a couple of years ago at a children's museum though. It crawled from my hand back into the keeper's hand, and boy did that tickle!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering about that too Andy.
ReplyDeleteI so love spiders. They eat a ton of our insects. We live in cottage county.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog!

ReplyDeletethey just look scary but i think it is also a good pet. but no, I won't take it as pet, hehe.
ReplyDeleteI quite like spiders and I've always been quite fascinated by big spiders like this one and wondered what it would be like feel it crawl over my hand.
ReplyDeleteNot so cute. When I was 12 visiting Arizona, I saw two. I wanted to step one with my bare foot, but my mother saw what I was about to do and stopped me. Haha...
ReplyDeleteI don't like spiders either...ANY kind!!!
