Why yes. Both the Latrodectus Hesperus and Latrodectus Mactans are my two favorite widows. Someday when the time's right and when my life's not too busy, I'll be sure to buy some. They seem like great petsYes I dothose are your favorite widow ?
Why not try to collect your own? Both species are practically as common as dirt in most southern states. I can go to nearly any camping ground and find them in the restrooms or the electrical boxes.
I would but I live in the northeast, there are no black widows here. The northern widow ( Latrodectus Variolus) is found but I've had no luck. That's why I will buy some. It's a better option
Just saying if you're ever in the mood to camp/travel, close to a third of the country is overflowing with widows.
Yeah, if I do travel by car again to a state with widows, I'll be sure to do that. A road trip sounds nice
I had L.mactans as a child, very simple to care for and very relaxed animals. Was it smart for 10 year old me to have one? No probably not, but I kept her because I figured that pretty much anyone else who would find her would kill her.
Cool! They are very calm and nonaggressive spiders. That's another reason why they make great pets. You can handle em without gettin' bit. Very low maintenance. I used to live in Indiana and all we had were brown recluse spiders but black widows are better than recluses
Ah, now that's the spider I wanted to see
