Well, here is my contribution to the zoa spider hunt. I was dipping and inspecting a new paly colony that I got last night and the sight of these things really creeped me out. They gave me the shudders when I plucked them out. Just thought I would take some pix to show everyone what they look like. Man, I am just hoping that the other colonies I got recently don't have the same things. I can't get a good close-up shot of these little boogers b/c my work digicam sucks. I'll try with my dslr at home this weekend. I took some pix next to a ruler for everyone's reference. I caught 5 and 2 of them were black and the other 3 were brown. Don't know why there is a color difference, perhaps different sex?
Get ready for the shivers......
