I read through some things like this but have never heard of anyone encountering one in person with pictures.

I've heard people refer to finding "tarantulas" here in Colorado. Has anyone here actually encountered (what seems likely to be A hentzi) in CO? I imagine it would be the FAR southern parts if at all. I live way up North by Wyoming but find myself down south on occasion. If there is something...
Laughter. I don't take it seriously. One of the biggest problems with modern society worldwide is over sensitivity, and political correctness. Everyone gets so easily offended.
It is like anything. People will be afraid things for no reason other than the looks of it. Heck I know people with fears of completely inanimate objects. Through ignorance, people assign mythical properties to things and create hysteria. If you live at home, just abide by the rules and when you...
Tortoises are a lifelong pet, many times they will outlive their keeper. I've been keeping turtles and tortoises for years. They are some of the most rewarding reptiles to keep. Never had anything try to bite minus snappers and musks. But you want a tortoise, which is even more fun. Relatively...
My point being, we offer civilian "lasers" that are actually LEDs, to avoid the exact type of dangers you referenced in the OP. Pretty interesting stuff really.
I work for a company that has military contracts for optics and lasers just like this. We have a few products that are civilian restricted for this reason. Some idiot trying to blind a pilot who is attempting to land a plane full of people etc. We as well as other manufactures have found...
I have an Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina carolina) that is right about 2 years old. We rescued him/her as a hatchling. He is just a tad larger than a golf ball, and a voracious eater. I have kept large communal aquatic turtles with great success, but I'm down to just this guy right now...
Went in to my local petco last night for their deal on tanks. $1 per gallon. Grabbed a spare 10 gallon tank to have. Sure enough they had some OW slings in these little vertical containers. Foam at the bottom, and 2 fake leaves. No water, bone dry...looked like pokies to be honest. Just had to...
I had always wanted scorps so I got a few and did a nice naturalistic setup. Kept reading about how awesome Ts were and then got sucked into it bigtime. Left for a while to do turtles, downsized to one turtle and am getting back into Ts.
I've narrowed it down, and I think I'm definitely getting a GBB as per your suggestions. However against my better judgement I think I am going for two. (exactly what happened last time, and two turned into many more). For the second T I am debating on T stirmi, L parahybana, and P muticus. I am...
Awesome thanks for the input. How would rate the speed of P. muticus? I was able to handle my OBTs with no problems using caution and common sense. I don't want a "teleporter" like a pokie. The store had 2 massive sexed female P muticus in proper enclosures, for $150 complete setup and spider...
Sucks this happened but it sounds like your dog needs some serious training. Both of my dogs can be called off of what they are doing, regardless of excitement. It was a looong road of training and headaches but really worth it in the end. My retriever is especially obedient. Id work with that...
