New to Arachnids
Here is the FIRST one i have EVER had. Actually it is my 12 y/o daughters. Last weekend at the Atlanta show she asked if she could get "SOMETHING", i said yes think it was an Albino Nelsons or something of the sort because she has wanted a colubrid for a while now. Then she dragged me over to the T's. She picked out this one. Reluctantly we got it for her, and she named it Barbie! I must say i have grown quite fond of her.

LMAO @ Barbie..Of all the names! So does she hold it and all that?
My daughter is still scared of the spiders..Still working on her to get used to the snakes completely about the only one she feels comfy with is the snow corn snake. Pink..Doesnt help she goes to her dad's who hates ALL animals..But at least she is learning..My 2 1/2 yr old on the other hand has NO fear and likes ALL animals..I have to watch her..if she sees a Copperhead or Rattlesnake she would want to pet it! |

Gorgeous, what is the scientific name of it, at first glance it looked like a Grammastola Rosea but when I clicked on it it didn't.

Yes she is a Rose. Pretty huh? Yes we hold her, my daughter too. As a matter of fact, she wants to hold her all the time.
Barbie is something my daughter came up with because people associate the name Barbie with the most beloved little girls toy. And, in her words, people would feel safer holding "Barbie" vs say "killer". So it was a mental play on people really.  |
