Good Charlotte
These are my first successful photos of Good Charlotte and this was also the day of her first "official" human contact (I couldn't resist--she is so soft and pretty).
I also had to share this description I found regarding my beloved Charlotte (my Sunburst Tarantula):
Animal Description:
They are often called "Orange Demon Spiders" and "The Orange Bitey Things" because of their speed and aggressive natures. Because this tarantula is so aggressive it is often not recommended for beginners. When feeding, it is recommended to feed through a sliding door at the top of the enclosure to prevent bites and escapes.
About 14 to 15 centimeters in length, the Usambara Orange Baboon is an average sized spider. However, its size is the only thing that's average about it! They are a fiery, deep orange or red in color, with dark marks on the abdomen and cephalothorax. Paired with their extremely quick speeds, they often resemble a ball of fire.
Poor Charlotte! What a reputation! After all, she is my GOOD Charlotte!!!
However, if she escapes (as Mash seems to be encouraging)--she may become that little demon that they speak of! And I suppose I should probably keep her lid on more often...
