I'm an 18 yr old girl and I currently have 1 Rose Hair Tarantula named Tinker Bell aka Tinker. And yes! She is my baby & in some weird way i'm hers aswell.
Most Rose Hair Tarantulas are known as the most docile of the Tarantula family but Tinker is a breed of her own. Docile is something she is not! I bought her at a local pet store about 9 months ago and I over paid! $40.00 plus tax. I don't regret it one bit though because she has prooved her loyalty to mean again and again.
I'm always happy to share my knowledge of the Rose Hair breed with other people and I have successfully changed alot of people's minds about Tarantulas. I take Tinker pretty much everywhere with me - except to work and in the shower.
And everyone comes up to me with loads of questions, which I am happy to answer. Often I get a few mean comments and yes that pisses me off! You don't have to understand why I have a tarantula but don't say "Oh that is the most disgusting thing I have ever seen!" cause I will snap back at you.
Alot of people have tarantulas for the love of it or for the money.
My reason is for the love of it. My whole life I was afraid of things, almost everything. Turtles, Snakes, Lizards and especially spiders of all kind. Then one day after purchusing a Rat... (I saved him)
I looked at Tinker in her cage, I realized that everytime I had gone to the pet shop she was there and she looked really battered and depressed... The guy who owned the pet store notice I was looking at her and asked if I would like to hold her.
I felt pretty brave that day but scared all at the same time and once I held her it was love at first sight. I had overcome my fear and that day I bought her too! Every since me and Tinker have been really close, and the result of our relationship...
She refuses to be handled by anyone but me. Yes they are docile creatures but! Not Tinker... If anyone attemps to touch her except for me she will try and bite or flick her little rosey hairs at you. Not to mention she is extremely protective of me cause when it comes to people who are around me and alot of people usually are... If they dear touch me she will get her little legs agoing and start running to their hand and raise her fangs.
Yeah, its weird I know... But ya gotta love her!
