hey all spider and scorp lovers!
Spider Questions
ok, so the title says funnel webs...i think they are the coolest spiders and i have so many running around the back and front of my house and i have caught several before and taken them to the hospitals and they milk them them give them back to me and i realese them...
...so anyway my main questions are:
> do you need a special licence for them?
> if you don't can you catch them from highly populated areas on your property?
> how big a tank would you need?
> how often would they want feeding?
>since they are burrowing spiders, how deep would you need the substrait?
i have a few tubs lying around for some that i could keep em in...
scoripoin questions
i was just looking at my jar in which i have my good old dead pet scorpion in with spirits or what ever and i thought it would be cool to get another few! then...what freaked me out was my mum called me up to here and showed me an email that my mums sister had sent me from her mate at works whos got some pets scorps hes selling off...
heres the main quote or whatever that he said in the email:
They will be going for $25.
They are local rock scopions, they grow to around 3cm, they are poisonous but not leathal (to humans) they pack the puch similar to a bee or huntsman spider bite (though i can't tell you from experience...yet). They are very easy to look after, only need to feed them once a week and since they are local they don't need any special equipment like heat lamps
so thats that and i thought it would be heaps cool to get little tiny scorps....
do any of you guys have info about these little scorpions? i have heaps of spare cricket containers and a duel simease fighter fish tank lying around would i beable to use them?
Cheers,
Luke
