I'm preparing too purchase the Theraposa Blondi or the Goliah birdeating Spider

The venom is harmles to humans, but believe me you do not want her fangs hit your skin.



They can grow up too 25-28 cm leg span their behind can grow as large as a Tennisball.

They are verry agrasive and make hissing sounds and will bomb you with irritating hairs when disturbed.



Breed in captivity (like all my Reptiles and Tarantulas) Strict Cites law that saves the populations of animals in the wild :xx:

Sorry sir Zim :santa:



It's brilliant too see them live, furiously ambush a prey, how they move is just amazing!



The fangs are as big as huge catnails.



Evil... mah just one of natures way in defending i think :)

I hused too be scared as well for spiders, but ive learn too look at annother way at them, and my interrest grow.



My mother is also a HUGE arachnophobic, when she visits me! i pull down a curtain over the bookcase where their tanks are.

Otherwise she will not enter my house :)



Arachnophobia is absolutely NO shame at all :beer:

Think before you watch! this is not a nice sight, but the mouse dies instant in a few secconds by the venom of the Tarantula.

It's look fruital, but it's also a way it's happens in the wild.

No it's not illegal here, but it's illegal with baby mouses and rats.

But the goverment controles the captivity conditions of shops that sell mouses and Rats for food.

It's also possible too feed frozen mouses and rats, some snakes and the Blondi won't eat dead food.
