    One day!
    I lucked out because I didn't want a little sling, so while he's still little, he's big enough that I'm not extremely frightened .

    Yeah..there were actually a lot of arachnid vendors there. Nice selection. One guy had the most adorable baby irminias, but they were so tiny they were still white...probably 1is. I really wanted one,cuz they were just so darn cute, but was afraid to take a chance on something so tiny.

    I'm not worried about them going in and touching it.
    I'm more thinking of if it got out.

    Very bad muscle cramps, lasting up to 3 weeks
    Vision loss
    High fevers
    Increased heart rate
    Uncontrolled sweating
    Vomiting
    Joints locking up, unable to walk, unable to use hands arms etc.
    Very intense pain

    Just a few of the things that can happen to a healthy person from a Poecilotheria bite.
    I would not want to put a Grandparent through any of that. Let them understand that they will need to get to a hospital ASAP if they get bit.

    I'm really not trying to start anything but I feel I need to bring it up.

    Please be safe!!

    Yeah im pretty excited about this one! The same guy had some really nice GBBs, but they were $50. Also some g.pulchripes, which i also considered. But i could only choose one. And even at that my hubby gave me a little grief. :rolleyes:
