Deployment contest V.2

I'm certain a LOT of the terrible things this thing is capable of is, as with most misunderstood creatures, mostly hype.

yes and no. I have only seen a few, all small ones. They get much bigger than 6 inches! This baby is about 5 inches across. Maybe the body gets up to six inches, the legs would about double that. I've never seen one running, so I can't comment on thier speed either.

I have a contact here who raises them on a farm. I have already gotten the ScubaToys member list and have arranged for a camel spider to be shipped to every member. I'm just generous like that.

I can't wait for my delivery!!

[Gilligan]

I'd take one!

[Shenanigan]

of course you would ... on this thread anyway!

[Gilligan]

No, actually I'm intrigued by large bugs... we have large "banana" spiders here and they are pretty wicked.

[Shenanigan]

OK - they appear evil! Why would you have even one in your presence???

[Gilligan]

What freaks out one is intriguing to another... my GF can't stand vines and mole tracks... I think both are cool... especially mole tracks.

I have had pet snakes and wanted to also keep walking sticks... and praying mantis are just about the coolest creatures on earth!

[Shenanigan]

OK - I get that, I had everything from cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, snakes, lizards, horney tords, tarantulas, etc. growing up. I liked enteracting with difference species, but never one that was dangerous!
