Do they have fangs and poison?

Of course they have fangs, and no they dont have poison. No tarantual is poisonous!

Hello stranger - didn't know you were on here, lol

I heard the hairs were poisonous?
So what if one bit you? What would happen?

PMSL, the hair are urticating, not poisonous, who ever told you that needs their head bashing against the wall! If you were tagged depends on on many conditions, like if it was a dry tag, how much much venom was injected, what species of T it was, if your allergic to that venom. At the end of the day if you know what your doing you wont get bitten so shouldnt worry about this stuff, and if you dont know what your talking about you shouldnt even consider buying these.

Can be a nasty bite, but the "poison" isn't poisonous to humans, stings quite a bit though and can send some people into allergic shock.

Alright mate, hows it goin? Wanna buy some T's ;-)

Can we just clear this up these are NOT POISONOUS! No tarantula is poisonous, they are venomous though. Theres a big difference between poisonous and venomous. Google it if your not sure about the definitions of both.

Sean it was the fella in that exotics pet shop on new chester rd that told me that.
Also about not knowing what we are doing, we all have to start somewhere right?

Looking at a number of dictionaries, many state a venom is a poison. I guess you are trying to emphasise the difference between whether its a contact-poison or injected.

Well he shouldnt be allowed to work there then if thats the advice he is giving out, i know we all have to start somewhere, but i find alot of people who own/work in pet shops, generally have a lack of knowledge on the animals they are selling as they dont care about the animal onces its sold. There are many good forums on the net where people can gain knowledge from other members, that you just couldnt get from a pet shop
