Just do as I do. Whatsapp friends and family with pics, videos and stories no matter. Worse case scenario no one cares. Best case you eventually wear them down and they realise tarantulas are phenomenal.For me it's not so much comments that I get but more the fact that no one really cares. The most annoying (or somewhat disappointing) is the fact that there is no one around me that shares my enthousiasm I guess. Whenever one moults, or does something interesting or peculiar, I get excited and want to share that with my family but all I get is THAT look, if you know what I mean.
Like this morning my recently moulted T. cyaneolum did something funny (she was laying down flat, all legs spread out and when I approached to see the hilarious sight up close, she jumped up) so I told my mom but she just always pulls that 'ugh, disgusting' face.
A little frustrating but I hope over time she'll warm up to them.
Thank god for this forum, where my enthousiasm for my T's is actually shared .
