My girl went down and explained that they couldn't get out and that's when he came back in and started asking about them.
I guess it could be overwhelming to an outsider. esp. When you have a fear to begin with. The tarantulas really didn't phase him.
Once he had some trust that the snakes wouldn't hurt him, you could see that he really wanted to hold one.
I'm not a big people person and I never have anyone in my house. Thought it was cool that he walked away with a different view on snakes.
Peek out at us babies!!! An cool story, ha It's fun changing people's minds. I've only gotten one afraid person to mellow out so far. Probably doesn't help if people are annoying about their fear I tell them if the ones in the cage bug you your gonna poop yourself when my guard anaconda makes her way out from under the couch. Then I stare at them straight faced like I just said the truest statement on the earth.

Haha.
I thought it was strange the tarantulas didn't bother him. I understand how they can creep people out, I can't understand the down phobia. Like when people get freaked out when they are on TV or see a photo.
And yes these babies need to peek out. Can't wait to get home :)

I think it's hard to tell ha when I was looking there the other night I was trying to figure that out. It may be to cold for them to be exploding cuz my room is 80, I've got heat pads but no Tstat for them so haven't gotten heat on them
