I just held a tarantula! There's one more thing to cross off my 'to do' list. One of our clients raises them and brought one in for me to see. I think they are so cute. She is 3 years old, and our client is determined that in 10 years she will be the world's largest tarantula. Right now she is about 3 inches in diameter. When full grown, she will be the size of a dinner plate. Just think...I can say 'I knew her when'...
