.Why?I would'nt say brave
Lets not have a discussion going here. Its SouthernStyle's picture thread. We've given our 0.02 so lets not hijack his thread.
I'd love to have a better english to understand what are you trying to say.
You did'nt miss much ...
Good decision probably, this said i've nothing agianst the HANDLING itself, i'll explain my point on your other quote
Yes I did and I still do it, but ... The problem is'nt handling, the problem come when you take picture and try to look brave with them. The problem come when the person clearly have no big experience with these sp., because as I can see you are stand up with a H. Lividum on you, probably the species the most predictable to bold and fall. Plus, looking at his Invert list, he has no big experience in nervous species, and im sorry but I dont think any serious keeper is using common names. This guy does'nt know what he's doing and he's proud to show us that. As I said, I am still handling and still taking picture for any futur article or watever about it, but I certainly does'nt show them on forum anymore, why ?
Does'nt look like someone who really have a lot of experience in Ts, and know what he's doing when handling such sp., especially when they think that glove will protect them...My Inverts & Other Pets:

And I think that about covers it...But it changes pretty often! BUGS BUGS AND MORE BUGS!
Its not a brave act at all, I get crazy everytime I read that. Hey, im probably the last brave guy on earth, and if yo uknew me more personally, you would know that I got a ... gigantesque hate for the people who want to look brave-cool, in other word, people that try to look like what they are'nt. This said, im not brave at all, not cool at all, and I handle., and depending for what reason you handle (look brave or because you have to much interess in the species you are keeping and want to learn more about 'em, by interacting and dealing with them) its probably a mix of stupidity and curiousity, but im sorry I dont think its a question of curiousity with this guy.
Because that only prove that he want to look brave, by calling it AGRESSIVE. No tarantula are agressive, they can be nervous, even very nervous, they can be defensive, even very defensive, but they're not agressive.
ACTUCALLY, I've Kept T's For years...Theres nothing that says I dont have a lot of expierence with these, nor Does it qualify in that fact...Ya know what they say about assumptions....The Gloves were added protection, Not ment to be clowned upon...Your Oppinion I'll hear and Listen to, But as far as your thoughts... I'd Keep them to yourself
I agree posting on a forum is always gonna get responses overwise why would you post? some good, some bad accept it
