What is this fuzzy, 5" diameter Tarantula thinking...(and he is NOT a pet!!

I hope the dog did not pee here. I have sensitive skin.

He's hoping no Jersey Giants are in the vicinity....yum...yum...

Where on earth did you find that monster ???

I am visibly shuddering at the thought...each to their own I guess! I had a friend that had a tarantula in a glass case, she used to feed it live crickets..note: I HAD a friend...!!!

Tell you, if I found one of those wild ones in my wood pile, I would be having a really big bonfire, right where it stands.

I love spiders. I don't keep them as pets. I just photograph them.

Nice picture, the orb weavers are pretty spiders... there is something about the size though, don't think they would be as attractive if they were the size of tarantulas, and imagine the webs they'd be making (or don't pretty sure we've seen that horror movie.

Quote: This guy is a wild spider. They are creepy looking, but they are very slow, do not jump and are really harmless. It takes a lot to get them agitated. He lives in our wood pile and I have seen him an others around the area. LOL Right now they are all burrowed under ground for the winter. I hope. Would HATE to bring one of these guys inside the house here on a piece of wood!

What are they thinking? My friend and I were playing a game of rummy in the coop... I'm just goofy that way. Lol.

Doesn't everyone play rummy in the coop?
