My fiancé and I love our furry and scaly friends :P
As you can see in my sig, we have a cat, dog, two tarantulas and my snake..
Here's the pics!
This is Brea (BB), our daft cat who walks to Tesco and Blockbuster with us.
This is our doggie Rosie (or Buddy) a Mini Schnauzer, amazing dog.
Hailey our Chile Rose, we were told he was a girl, then he molted and got his mating hooks...
And this is Ebony, our Brazilian Black... the most docile tarantula that exists! She alone cost £90
My corn has her own thread...
Thanks for looking :)

Awesome!! I hadn't realised quite how large Ebony is...is Hailey just as big? Always been a fan of spiders, though I don't think the OH would appreciate one as a pet (boo).
Awesome family  |

Hailey fits into one of my hands, Ebo needs two, I think her current size from front foot to back is about 7".
It's a shame because Hailey will die soon (lucky if he lasts another year) and Ebony has about twenty years left.
That's the interesting thing about tarantulas, every species if different. I personally want a pinktoe, I want a spider with wee pink booties!
And I know how you felt Kez about being scared...I hate little spiders..I just think tarantulas are cute and fuzzy
Edit: Can you believe Buddy is 11? haha |

Nah, they are the kitten of the tarantula species. There has never been a reported bite from a Brazilian Black. |

What a shame :P One thing I can tell you, you'd expect them to be heavy, but they're almost weightless...

Aww love the first 2 and the chilean rose has a certain beauty about it.
The big black beastie though....eeek! It looks like the one a bloke got out at a rep show. He showed me how calm it was and held it upside down while stroking its underside. I gradually got closer and then it shot up his arm though once righted and I jumped back and nearly knocked someone over lol.  |

There's a video on Youtube with someone tickling the belly of one. I'd love to do that to ours, just too scared to.. haha
She did this yesterday, if she fell, she'd probably get hurt..

Ebony is lovely! I love keeping scorpions and tarantulas; they are facinating to watch.
And Pink Toes are lovely, I had a male one for a few years, they're quite calm. Not like the Zebra leg I've got now..... |

Hi c00ki3z,
Looked at your pics earlier of your spiders & for about half an hour after, I was feeling very itchy & shivery! I have held 2 tarantulas before, surprised myself because I hate house spiders but guy that had them said they were different to those spiders & they were.
I held them ok but only when they were still, as soon as I could feel them move, I passed them back!
I was telling my OH about your spiders & he could see I was itching so he sneaked off, got a little plastic snake we have & threw it in my lap! Frightened me to death & almost jumped out my skin! |

I hate house spiders - even the babies - they make me scream! For some reason I get itchy from our spiders, but my OH doesn't. And how could he play a prank :P I have a fuzzy Corn Snake tied to our babies cot so I could probably do the same... Hmmm |
