My Chilean Rose tarantula (Grammastola Rosea) @ Rosy molted four days ago. I must admit to neglect her these past few months, maybe because she is just a very quiet pet! (unlike Kiki and Kaos)
I neglected to feed her crickets for 2 months. Yes, a tarantula can live for weeks, even months without food and water. The crickets supply at the nearest aquaria is so erratic, and I couldn't remember how many times I cursed the closed front door!
Anyhow I got a supply of crickets yesterday and dumped six fat insects into Rosy terrarium. And she murdered 2 of the poor crickets in a minute! Must have been SO hungry.
A Chilean Rose tarantula is said to be docile and a great tarantula for starters. I wish to bury my kitchen knife inside those who said so. My Rosy is so bloody violent and her fangs are almost an inch long!
Well, better a caged tarantula than a biting one on your hands....
Hurm... I bet all of my blog readers never had a pet tarantula.
The itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again
My spider is not small and have huge fangs to bite me if I ever order her to climb up a water spout. :(

I though the spidy is had gone to meet its ancestor already long ago...
Nope. No spiders as pets. Just three fat, lazy, sleepy cats.
Until there is food involved. Then, they are just fat.
Any spider would be bitchy if left unfed for 2 months. I won't blame her if she bites you.
Maybe you'd turn into an evil spiderman. You'd love that, I reckon.
Tenci; that was ANOTHER tarantula - Myrkull, a Mexican Red Knee. Mogok lapar bila kaki kena putus.
ying_ko_4; Cats are nice. :) I have one of my own, but she is not that lazy.
Aizan; Personally, I hate Spiderman. Too chatty a guy. I wish some superhero can behead him.
Truth be told...spiders totally freak me out!!!
And a tarantula...brrrr!!!
Newayz....I like to look at them though...at a good distance!! I don't think they're poisonous......
I know the black widow for one is deadly though!!!
Vyazz; Tarantulas are as poisonous as wasps or bees... which are considered poisonous if they bite you. :) Exotic animals rock.
