    First spider. :)
    Picked up my first non-reptile/mammal this weekend at the CRBE in Toronto.

    The Latin name is in my luggage under the bus, but she is a beautiful Funnel Web Spider. She will get blue legs and and a red butt at some point...

    I am really excited to have her.

    I was staying with friend's the weekend of the expo and had been thinking of adding a spider. Then I saw there funnel web tiger and it was love at first site. :)

    Congrats on your pick up!

    Owning a spider will never happen for me though! They are the ONE THING that I am terrified of and simply cannot get over.

    Gives me the willies. LOL
