Sneak peek of my first official photo shoot with one of my tarantulas! She’s a Salmon Pink Brazilian Bird Eater and not even full grown yet!
The full 15 minute video will be in your inbox later today!
This was a very slow, painstaking process, as tarantulas are very shy and delicate. A light breathe of air can send them running, and if they fall, they can pop! They also like to kick their painfully itchy hairs all over if they’re feeling nervous. Hence the gloves on my partner/assistant handler. While this species can inflict the bite force of a small cat, it’s the hairs you have to watch out for! And normal anti-itch creame has no effect. Now excuse me while I bathe in lidocaine 😂
