    Screw those things I'm allergic to wasps :( I wish I wasn't I like looking at their nests an if you don't anger them your normally fine. But they see me an get angry.. I have a group that keeps coming back to my shed every year an they build their nest bigger and bigger. I keep lighting it on fire but they keep coming back :( I should light it with them in it but I feel bad so I scare them out then torch it hoping they will leave

    I threw in a dubia but it hid. I also have her some fruit flies. :)

    Communal tanks always run the risk of someone getting ate.
    Now if you had a sac and didn't have to buy them all, I think it wouldn't hurt as bad if one was lunch. I would love to try it out one day.
    Almost have it run itself. Have clean up crews working, plants growing. If I get to breed my OBTs I might just have to try it out.

    So how often do you get bit? I have a spider phobia, I can handle my python but not spiders they just freak me out. I'd be cool with getting a tarantula but I don't think I be able to take it out.

    Knock on wood... I have only been bit by a true spider, a little wolf spider.

    Most of my Ts I never touch. There are a couple that I let crawl on me.

    They are very much a look but don't touch pet.

    Re: Tarantulas and Spiders
    I see, kind of figured that they were not a go home and pet your spider kind of pet. What's it like when you have one crawling on you? I can just imagine the little hairs and legs tickling you, making it hard to stay still.

    Yeah it's like any bug really. You have to guide them from hand to hand as they walk.
    I had a little baby run up my shirt the other day. I thought he would have been lost

    Me too! Everyone was active and moving from the Ts to the roaches. I got to get the tank out of my shed for roaches. It's got a wooden top with holes in it but the cracks don't matter cuz they can't climb right? I snapped my Rubbermaid one stupid cheap plastic can't handle shed in sprinter weather I guess. O if your not sure sprinter is spring winter :)
