How often can I handle my chilean rose hair?

[Fran]

1st: Theres no proof of you handling T's for 15 years.

2nd: Even if that was the truth, and even if you have handle them almost every day, does not mean that they can be trained, AT ALL.

3rd: Just as an FYI, I have been around playing with spiders since I learned how to walk, and keeping Theraphosids for 14 years.I knwo what im giving opinion about.

Ps: Gravity is precisely the constant scientist still dont have totally figured out yet, so yeah...lets leave that subject.

Oh,I forgot to say that the possibility of being "lucky" during 15 years IS POSSIBLE, the probability is low, but POSSIBLE.

Also I'll be coming down to FL to see a friend over the summer so maybe we can meet up then if you must see it in person.

Your spiders or mine? I have an H. mac that would love to meet you.

Fran,
As I said in an earlier post you may have 14 years of experience but if you don't handle them then that equals 0 years of experience in the area that we are talking about here. Clearly you don't handle your T's and frankly since you don't handle them your knowledge is limited in this area. This would be my area not yours since I am hands on with them.

Also I don't take random spiders. All of my T's I've raised from slings. So would your H. mac probably try to bite me I would say yes. Which by the way proves that it isn't me as proposed in an earlier post since I can't just take random spiders. However I'll be more than happy to free handle my H. lividum, P. metallica, Xenesthis sp white, or P. ultramarinus.I feel that raising them and handling them from babies does get them accustomed to the handling. Thus they may see me as part of their natural environment....

I hope you're willing to bring them with you down here, then.

Or, at the very least, take a video and post it here to show us.

Whatever you do with your T is up to you, just be careful and enjoy. Welcome to the hobby.

Oh yeah, the earth isn't even this old.....

Carbon dating shows this thread to be 4.5 billion years old.

Dead threads are awesome. Stop bashing those They are just poor wandering internet ghosts, sometimes they love to appear, like Homer, in and out:

simple answer... as little as possible they don't like being handed and it stresses them out. plus handling them less prevents any accidents from happening like dropping them to their death or you getting bitten by them. but if you want to handle them often I personally say no more than once per week for 5 minutes at a time.
