Want a strange pet?

[PranK]

Hi Guys,

My Bird Eating Spider is up for sale.

Shes a few years old (they live to be 50ish) - her size including legs, is about 100mm and will easily grow to be about 250mm (in the right environment).

Her name is Eleanore, she's $100 and I'll throw in some extras (like a cave for her and a water dish).

The reason for sale is that I want to use her tank for some fry (fish) and I dont have the room for another tank.

You can have the tank and the lot for $300 (including red light, glass lids and mesh lid and also a heat pad thats seen better days).

It'll be sad to see the girl go.

I used to sell these things a few years back now and they are very.... different.

I still remember quite clearly the day we fed a full grown adult one a live mouse.

1. couier to WA

2. allow to keep in WA LAW???

Joe,

Getting it there would be ok, but you'd have to check with the WA Law if you can keep it.

hey prank.. if there is no much trouble... can you find out latin name of it?

[HoeTrain]

Do you have a pic of it eating a bird?

[predator]

i will provide a bird.. girls love spiders

[PranK]

Joe,

I have NSW Wildlife Reptile and Amphibian licenses, but neither were required to own it.

Selenocosmia Crassipes is its Latin name as far as I am aware.

Here is a site with some facts; http://www.tenforward.com.au/spiders/facts.html
