My exhusband gifted my children with a pet tarantula shortly after our divorce. hmmmmmmmmmm..........
We only had him about a year before he kicked off. Cool creatures to watch. Still remember the first time he shed his skin! I thought he'd cloned himself!!!

OED!!!!
She has shed 3 times since I've had her. I thought my BF at that time had bought another one. I was mad as they are not to be kept with others....

She's a pretty spider. There's something about taratulas I think is cool. The females live to be almost 20 years-old, don't they?
