WEBS!!!!
I've gone and got myself a GBB in an effort to get over my fear of webs aswell as spiders. This is something I've done a lot of thinking about as not only do these T's web a lot, they are also very fast when they want to be!

On the up side, they are very pretty (or so I keep telling myself) :

Actually, Mort, that is stunning! And I'm a spider phobe.....

The only T's I like are Martinique ( Avic. Versicolor ) -and my local pet shop has got some slings in, and I'm sooo tempted. But 1) I'd probably cry and run out of the house, if it ever got out and 2) I really don't like insects, and I'd have to keep some for the T.... and I'd feel guilty feeding them to the T!

How are you coping, as spider phobe, having T's ?

Ah, the A.versicolor is gorgeous isn't it. Its the fact that they jump that puts me off lol I must admit I do feel a little guilty when I feed the T's, I've apologised to the roaches before now hahaha!

I'm getting better, now know their individual characters. I'm still a little wary especially of Ruby the rat bag, but she's been well behaved for a while now. Getting better with normal spiders too, apart from house spiders

Hahahaha!! I actually "wanted" this one! Determined to get rid of my web phobia! Funnily enough the pet shop where I had "The Accident" from is having an opening day as they've moved to a larger property. I've already promised not to throw any tarantulas this time!!

I still detest house spiders, but I am better with other spids now


Hoping those cool colours will help me like it more tk72 lol

erm I think I'll stick with being a phobe lol. I can hold T's now but I still freak out easily and as for house spids they are just evil!!
I'll stick with the cockroaches thanks :-D
