    Re: i have a predisposition to never want any spiders or morphs

    this is how i feel, too. i have never owned or held a spider morph, so my knowledge was non-existant. of course we only see the worst cases on youtube and other places, but i guess the huge majority of spiders live wonderful, healthy lives.

    spiders do have an issue, but they thrive, so i feel okay in looking at them as potential pets/breeders. there are other morphs with far more detrimental issues, and most all breeders know and try not to breed those.

    but hot darn are spiders beautiful animals. i'm very thankful to know more about them. 😊
