so i bought a tarantula

[darkvare]

i went to the pet store with the intention of buying some salt water fishes, but the cost of the habitat is outrageous i saw the tarantulas and i instantly decided that it was a better choice they are easy to care for and don't eat too much when i get back to the house i'll post some pictures

You should get a lobster to keep him company.

my brother is gonna start breeding crawfishes

[Aaarg]

ah cute!

I don't think turantula/crawfish hybrids would have viable offspring, but god help us all if it does.

You better pet that little guy. I had a childhood friend with a tarantula and feeling it's soft fuzziness was the best part of every trip over to his house.

One pet I never understood is the savanah monitor lizard. It's like having a little alien that want nothing more than to see everybody in the room dead. My roommate years ago had one and it was constantly biting him whenever he had to do anything in the tank then getting loose and acting aggressive and crazy.

That's horrible. I would have run screaming from the pet shop.

[Hangie]

Why have a pet at all if it doesn't want to kill someone?

[Tadao]

Out of curiosity, how much was the habitat? 1000 Pesos?

[darkvare]

all the things it needed the dirt, the water bowl, the glass tank and the lid it all ended up with a 200 pesos bill

[Tadao]

:lol that's $15.54 American. If you still want it I can dig through my couch change and buy it for you.

Hahahahh
Mexico
I seriously love it there though, but only when I'm in Cancun.

I assumed he meant 200 Chilean pesos which is roughly half a US dollar

[Tadao]

I assumed he didn't because he lives in the middle of Mexico.

lol i left a tiny opening on the cover of her habitat went to grab a soda and she was trying to escape good thing a bit of air is enough to get her to retreat

[Zhukov]

So when are you going to destroy it and burn the remains?

[Tacobot]

I found a tarantula when i was in middle school and he got moldy and fell apart...so sad i felt awful, what a way to die. i think it's because someone told me they needed like a moist sponge to keep hydrated, but i'm pretty sure it just made his little tank really humid. i found out when i poked him and he fell apart like a crash test dummy.

edit: btw congrats she's very cute.

[darkvare]

all i do to keep her hidratated is to spray a little water every third day that's what the pet store clerk told me to do

[Tadao]

Isn't it pretty humid at all times in Mexico anyways?
