Great pics, and the kid sure is cute.Stracs-arachs said:Here is my daughter (ashley)........ my "arachnid assistant" with the recently molt of my female pokie. She always asked me when we are in my T room ........is this the one that spray's hairs daddy?? She was in the room one day when my B.smithi decided to kick off all the hairs he had........ directly into my face.....LOL !! So she saw me itching a little so she decided she needed to itch as well.....pretty funny!! LOL
Moults are not very prone to biting....Marcelo said:Nice pics...
Im newbie with Tarantulas but I have read in the Scorpions forum, that Children react in different way when they are bitten, I do not know if bites are more dangerous to childrens than to adults.
Im asking because your daugther is so cute, I dont wanna hear your T's bites her... :8o
An adult pokie bite on a child could have very serious consequences. But as OM said...Marcelo said:Im newbie with Tarantulas but I have read in the Scorpions forum, that Children react in different way when they are bitten, I do not know if bites are more dangerous to childrens than to adults.
Stracs-arachs said:Ok lets get something straight right off the bat here.....I would never place my daughter in harms way with any of my T's .....I barely let her go near the rosea's when I have them out. Yes Im sure it was shocking to see an 8" regalis on a three year olds shoulder but ............it was a moult and thats it!!!! She is outstandingly smart and is very curious about my hobby. I try to teach her as much as I can and get her involved as much as possible....again she is 3 but she does enjoy helping me and learning about each T. She has even helped me with a classroom lecture at my wife's school which she thought was awesome....helping daddy in front of older kids. All I can say is that she will be typing on these boards someday .....Im sure of it!
Also the bite from a regalis involving a child can be very serious, then again the bite from a regalis on an adult is serious......

Many have said it on these boards and now I will say it....yes T's are awesome and great, but they must be treated with respect.....lots of respect. Remember to research before entering into new species and always be on the defensive when dealing with a potent T.
I also like to check the BITE board as a reminder too !!!![]()
