No joke. I was scared to death of these things when I cared for them, especially because it was a really weird shape tank and I couldn't see everywhere. But there was one guy - a bit "odd" - who used to basically hang these guys off his fingers for kicks...lots of blood. :scared:

Hi Jenn, my nephew has 3 or 4 and is trying to breed them. No luck so far.

How about a rare curly horse? I sold him, but heres a picture of him. There are about 2000 living registered curlies in the world. I also used to have a tiger salamander named zebra when I was little. Bought him as a waterdog at Walmart and he turned into one!

I think we call them writing spiders. Like the one in Charlotte's web. I looked out my window and there he was just 5 inches out!!
I like the teal blue fly though. That was the only one I had ever seen that color.

yeah, that's pretty!
I know banana spiders (that's what we called them, so that's probably not the proper name) have really big fangs, so if one's on you and you smush it, it'll automatically bite you (and they're pretty venomous too!!!)
My mom used to work for a pest control company, and the one guy she worked with got bit by a brown recluse :scared: :scared: :scared: I saw his scar from it, and it was just a small layer of skin over a hole in his leg. If he hit it, the skin would just bust open and expose the hole... EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!

And that's what it is??!! :scared: Cause I always thought that the writing spiders were harmless. Ugly but harmless! If he's venemous, I may haft squash his pretty little but.
Ask your mom what THIS one is... Has that cool little arrow pattern on it's back.
