Pet Arthopods

Post Reply New Topic

The only arthropods I've had were mealworms. Yup, they were my pets. We were raising them at school and I took them home and kept them in my room and would hold them and gave them names. When they turned into beetles I released them into the garden

They are really neat! People thought it was weird but I really liked them. It is neat to meet someone else who likes them Now I want to get some again.

in 4th grade or 3rd, we kept caterpillars in a humane enclosure and we watched them become butterflies as a class.

that never happened again.

Today I discovered what I believe to be a Banded Huntsman (Holconia immanis) that was missing all four legs on its right side. It's quite likely that some kind of bird made a grab for it, and the Huntsman ejected all four legs to escape.

Luckily this Huntsman is nowhere near fully grown so in its next molt it'll hopefully regrow all four legs.

Dude, does it count, if the pet arthopods has appeared by itself? I know, that it's difficult to imagine, but it has realy happened. Long story short, I am the fish tank owner, where 4 fish live. My step-sister has brought me some small stones from the India, like present for me, which I have put into the aquarium for making it more beautiful and cozier. When 2 days past, I noticied the worm into the aquarium, that was hiden in the sand. Frankly speaking, I was very beatiful and didn't look, like the bad one. I got it from the aquarium and put it into the bottle of harm's way. Likely for me, I got it out in time, because it was the bobbit worm, that could eat all my fish. So, I'm lucky one, so you can check how is it beautiful on the [url=https:/[/color]https:/[/color[/url] and make sure about my words.

We had a grass spider that made a web on the window of our front porch this year. She was wild, but we enjoyed watching her. One day we noticed another grass spider web in the top corner of the porch, and a week or two later, both spiders were gone from the webs, so we think they decided to become partners and left.

I looked into getting a giant millipede a few years ago (I love the feeling of all those legs on me), but they're actually a lot of work. I've also considered a praying mantis.
