Lets have a proper spider thread.
NO NEVER
YOU'RE CUTE.
BUUUUUHHHHHHHHH
>>230554thats one impressive wolf spider, and it's either shooped or that is the tiniest shower ever.
>>230583Weird looking spider is weird.
>>230583oh jesus fuck. that kinda scares me, and i lurv spiders
>>230615::3
>>230583that's not a wolf spider. ;)this is though.
>>230615:3
am I cute yet?
or me?
>>230679it's gonna be hard to top this one:>>230615
>>230678I have no idea what that is, and the word "uterus" there makes me not want to know>>230681d'awww ^.^>>230693In the thumbnail I thought it was a cactus xD
>>230835woah, what kind is this?
found this one in my barn
>>230707it's spider female genitalia. the other one i posted is a male.>>230680i can sort of see the cactus. :P that's a pair of Poecilotheria rufilata.>>230840looks like Argiope lobata.
Hm... This can't be a good sign.
>>230841how big is it? looks like Dolomedes something or other. heh
>>230849find that in a terrarium? i've found some random fly like bug in one before..didn't have any problems as a result. if you really want to be certain, swap out the substrate and maybe even give the glass/plastic a little scrub.
>>230852Yeah. It is a scuttle fly methinks. Found it in my cricket cage. Can you suggest a good way to give water to crickets without having them drowned or using a sponge?
>>230854http://www.ghann.com/store/store_product_detail.cfm?Product_ID=34&Category_ID=5 stuff like this..i've never used it though.what i usually used were the fluker's orange cubes. they will keep them hydrated. you can also use some fresh fruit since that stuff contains plenty of water.
>>230844ah, now that you mention it, it does resemble an argiope aurantia (tons of those where I live)>>230858such a petty tarantula, is it a cobalt? i'm afraid i'm not very good with tarantula species yet x_X
>>230914it's Poecilotheria metallica. pretty expensive still..some day the price will come down as more are captive bred.http://images.google.com/images?q=Poecilotheria+metallica&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1
>>230919>>230925>>230957this guy randy may takes some really nice spider pics..as well as other animals. lots of good shots of snakes too.
>>230914why are jumping spiders ADORABLE
>>230983it's those puppy dog eyes! :D here is something someone posted on an arachnid forum recently.
>>230983big head, small body and legs... kinda like an anime character in SD/chibi mode
I adore these guys.And... Caster is on here too?
Huge res. Spider is resident of my window pane. And I have no clue as to what kind.
>>231110that is a tough one..can you get a good picture of it's eye pattern?
>>230554NOOOO POLLY POCKET>>230672>>230673OH GOD NOOO THIS IS WORSE THAN SEVEN
How about some movie recommendations for the arachnid-sensitive?ArachnaphobiaArachnidEight Legged FreaksLOTR: TROTKThe Mist
>>230601I think that's a net casting spider.
>>231189Eight Legged Freaks was fucking hilarious. The Mist had some great monster designs in it too, a shame the ending ruined it.<-- i get tons of these aurantias in my backyard during the summer. Ugly devils, but I love their webs
>>231321they're beautiful spiders! anonymous you so crazy.
>>231120Gah, just tried to get a close up of one, even brought her inside... my camera is out of batteries...
anon got any white tailed spiders they're beutiful awsome to watch kill other spiders and they cause necrosis on humans. i cant ge a good pic with my camera
I hate these long legged fuckers, something in their appearance gives me the willies.Exterminate 'em all, I say.
>>230983They look so innocent..and cute..and..D:!AWWWW
>>231671Those things used to climb up my legs very often when I was a kid and used to play outside. They freaked me the fuck out.I think they're the reason my fear of spiders got even worse.
>>231671I always find them in my shower -_-; At least their long legs make them easy to pick up and toss outside.>>231727No need to fear spiders because of those guys, they're not spiders, they're harvestmen. They're actually more closely related to mites than spiders.
>>231747I guess so, but still :(Guuhrr, those legs. I think jumpers are pretty scary too. I think I've met them through my childhood. Really fast and hop around. But upclose on pictures, they're super cute.
>>231776how can this scare you?>>230615:P
