*Fun Thread* Would you own an Aragog sized talking spider?

[miss moxie]

I'd definitely go for a 5" P. audax with the lifespan of a female G. porteri though! Doesn't even have to talk! I'm not greedy.

Puh. That could be a bit exhausting for @basin79 to feed them on his arm. And a 5" P. audax ... when it jumps ... you need a VERY big enclosure for it ^^.

No. I wouldn't want to have such a spider. The size of the common species is more than enough for me .

common species

WHAT! THAT'S BLASFOUMY AROUND HERE, COMMON! "COMMON SP. PISS ME OFF" LOL

 

[Mr B Smithi]

No, he is a male. I wanted a FEMALE!!

Still... he had a great life span I guess.

Go big or go home? Then Ungoliant. Read up on her she was definitely the most fierce and largest of all spiders. She almost defeated Morgoth(Sauron's Master) if not for the aid of the Balrogs.

One can't "own" Ungoliant or even Shelob. They are cunning and treacherous and are as likely to eat their masters as serve them. (The Great Spiders of Middle Earth are portrayed as unambiguously evil or at least only loyal to themselves.)

Yes. With conditions

Or a 6" Maratus instead, come on!

If it was a Euathlus sp. Red

No. It would probably kill you, after telling you beforehand that it was going to kill you.

But Aragog was faithful to Hagrid, he respected him. Now who wouldn't want a giant, loyal tarantula?

I have two giant loyal dogs, they're a handful enough to deal with.as it is lol.

Imagine the shedding with a giant tarantula. The hairs are bad enough on the small ones.

But even Aragog was willing to let his family eat Hagrid's friends.

Things got nerdy real quick here lol but I'm a huge J.R.R. Tolkien fan.

Just knowing the nature of spiders is enough for me to refuse. Definitely not interested unless I wanna be turned into a giant bolus.

Ah man. I was going to use that.

In the books, I believe Hagrid raised Aragog on table scraps or something. So food wouldn't be an issue. Apparently it will go for a couple pounds of ground beef every few weeks.

 

[Smokehound714]

It would be easy to feed, just go to a chatroom and pretend to be a 13 year old girl. Win-win!

I wouldn't want such a big talking spider. My sub-adult LP is talking to me, but only when I am the only person in the room. No-one believes me when I say that she can talk and they think I am crazy. Things got a bit better since I use medication. The talking stopped.
