Anyone know what kind of spider this is? I mean, besides obviously evil, sneaky, ugly and needing to DIE.

And is it poisonous??? We have these ugly beasties EVERYWHERE around here, and I am paranoid one is going to bite the kids or me.

I am NOT spider friendly- I pretty much think they are all out to get us. And the ones people claim are harmless??? I think they are all just wishing they were big enough to eat us and are plotting how to get bigger and more deadly. That alone proves they are evil.

I do not know.


When I see a spider outside, I scream for my Sweet Amelia (she is an EE), if she can hear me she come running and eats them! But I do not see many spiders these days outside. The birds have them fairly well under control.



What are your chickens doing? Slacking off on patrol?

What state are you in. That will help to narrow things down because, you can look up the spiders that are in your area on the internet.
 
We are in Nor. Cali, near Sacramento. I thought Wolf Spiders were one of CA's poisonous spiders??


Im getting out the spray!


And yes, my chookies ARE slacking!!! Those lazy girls and boys!! They have gotten sooo spoiled, they often turn up their beaks at freahly dug worms and simply wait for garden veggies or scratch!!

I am giving them a tiny break though since one of them somehow managed to kill a small RATTLESNAKE that was in my garden!! Me and the kids were in that garden the day before we found the snake all trampled and pecked, so I am willing to overlook this spider thing this time!

I caught him and put him outside, he was at least two and a half inches from one side to the other.
