Ahlen! I like to share with u guys, that tommorow am gna go nd buy a tarantula!(80% am gna buy it) i forgat to put down inshAllah!, A kind brother had pointed it out to me :)

For those who don't know what it is http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...antula_020.jpg (sisters be aware lol)

Having owned a snake previously its now time for the next pet:) However a rather unusual one!

My mum, nd sister are scared to death of spider and i mean they die if they see one! So this one will settle in room room, this way its keeps my sisters out;D

Ive always liked animals since a young boy, nd in sudan i used to hunt for scorpions nd spiders at a young age ;)...

So what you guys think?

I like any animal, and am not scared of most of them.... however i can't stand dogss:raging:!!! I absolutly hate dogs!! They smell, they always chase nd try to bite me! grrr, nd for some reason i always happen to step on their poo! yuckk...

Cats are one of my favourites! They are sooo nice! http://www.acfacats.com/images/Vertical%20Somali.jpg this is one of my favourite house cat species.. :)

And yes i wud touch it, ive touched it before, like letting it walk over my hand! However out of all animals i think spiders give me the most creeps, when their walkin on my hand, cuz they r so hairy nd walk very slowly!

So when i get mine (inshAllah) i wont b to keen on picking it up alot, only when its a must!

JazaakAllah khair sis

had a horned baboon, but she "passed beyond"
i have a desert hairy scorpion (not venemous) that i caught out here in the desert.

thank you:)
They are subadults, however i dnt know what species they are, probally is a rose hair almost everyone has them lol. The thing is am going down the guys house tomorrow, and he has various kinds. So i will have to pick.

You are so lucky u live in a place where such animals are common! :)

So are they aggressive animals? In general? I held one before and it seemed very calm. Are they like very unpredictable? Last thing i want is it to bite me lol, i heard it hurts!

horned baboons are very nice! Did u buy it as a baby?

snakelegs
06-07-2008, 01:45 AM
yeah i am very lucky - we have cool snakes locally too.
the horned baboon was given to me as a baby. they're said to be aggressive and fast moving, but she/he just dug herself a little burrow and spent most of the time down there. when he/she got to be an adult, the horn was really cool!
the males only live a couple of years, but the females can live 20-30 years!
rose hairs are pretty mellow, as are redknees. i mean, they're not the kind of animal you want to handle a lot cuz i don't think they like it all that much.
the new world tarantulas can flick hairs at you when they get upset. and of course, they can bite, but i've never been bitten. mine are all mellow and spend most of their time doing nothing whatsoever. (they do comb their hair sometimes, though), which is sort of endearing. :giggling:
it would be good if you could get some kind of a caresheet because different species have different requirements.
i think they're pretty when they move.
when they moult you think they are dieing. they shed everything - hair fangs and all! you don't want to feed them when they have just moulted because their bodies are soft and vulnerable for a while.
all the ones i have now i've had for a number of years - they're all adults, but i bought them all as little babies.

the animal in the picture is called "ferret" - they're very cute but from what i hear, they are also very mischievous and can be quite a nuisance.

yeah why would you wanna live in a rainforest? Do you watch the crocodile hunter or Jeff Corwin or discovery channel at ALL? Or the movie Anaconda.

I suppose you'd just like to get swallowed alive, if THAT helps you sleep at night...

''The Brazilian Black Tarantula has often been called the "best pet tarantula", with good reason. Brazilian Black Tarantulas are very docile, impressive, and hence the name, jet black tarantulas. They are in the same genus as the Chilean Rose Tarantula (Grammostola rosea), but are slightly larger and more active than Chilean Rose Tarantulas. The Brazilian Black Tarantula, like the Chilean Rose Tarantula, has been known to go on fasts lasting several months. They are very popular tarantulas, and you may find yourself paying a high price for even a spiderling, but remember that it is worth it. Females of this species have been known to live for over 20 years! The Brazilian Black Tarantula is a great tarantula for the classroom, for zoo displays, and for any collector.''

So the black one isnt that bad!

"A dog can be owned for purposes such as the following:

1. A trained dog for hunting. Remember in Islam we are only allowed to hunt for food; there is no such thing as hunting for fun, for we are not allowed to kill or torture animals or drive them out of their habitats for the fun of it.

2. A trained dog as a guide. This would be the case if a person is blind and he/she has no choice but to keep a dog for essential services. In this case, it is permissible for him/her to keep a dog inside the house once it has been trained for service, but it is still recommended that the dog have its own sleeping arrangement.

3. A dog trained for police duties.

4. A guard dog to guard houses or property.

5. A dog used by farmers to shepherd cattle and sheep.


I found that online. These are the circumstances in which u can keep a dog.

Yeh same here.. I hate them cuz they're so dirty. I've actually been on a fly-hunting expedition.. seriously, I'm not joking. Some nasty rats died in my loft and cuz of that, there was like hundreds of flies in my house *ewwwwwwwww shudders* I got so much exercise in those days, cuz I was running around killing them. It was so bad and traumatic that I was seeing flies when I closed my eyes. Eventually, I got fly-killer spray and then played a mean trick on them. I closed the curtains leaving a gap and sprayed loads of fly killer there. The dumb flies would be attracted to the sunlight coming from the gap and zapppppp they'd be poisoned by my chemical attack! One day I picked up about 80 dead flies in one room! It was traumatic (for me not the flies) and tooks 3 weeks before they all died :exhausted :phew

So ye i went down to the guys house, and looked at the spiders. However i have changed my mind! I did not really like them that much, my next move is going to be any kind of reptile!

He had different kinds, the most flamboyant being the blue cobalt! Thats the first one that caught my eye, had i bought one it would of been the cobalt! After reading how it behaves and its aggressive nature I changed my mind within seconds :p.

No I didn't know that. How big is big though? What about chameleons, I'm sure they remain a manageable size? :?
iguanas can get 4-6 feet long. the adult males can be aggressive. i don't think they make the greatest pets. a healthy adult iguana is something worth seeing though. they look extremely intelligent.
you can learn more here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_Iguana
if you're really serious about getting an iguana, this is a Long, comprehensive article about their care.
http://www.anapsid.org/iguana/
also,they are vegetarians and you have to be pretty conscientious about providing the correct nutrition, minerals, etc
chameleons are much smaller and there are many different kinds. i don't know a whole lot about them. they are certainly fascinating to watch, even though they're not very active.
still, i would recommend bearded dragons or berber's skinks.
leopard geckos are also quite cool, small, mellow and very hardy.




whenever getting any reptile, it is best to read up about them first.

p.s. please see my last paragraph in my answer to raOnar.

So ye i went down to the guys house, and looked at the spiders. However i have changed my mind! I did not really like them that much, my next move is going to be any kind of reptile!

He had different kinds, the most flamboyant being the blue cobalt! Thats the first one that caught my eye, had i bought one it would of been the cobalt! After reading how it behaves and its aggressive nature I changed my mind within seconds :p.
i've never had a blue cobalt. all my tarantulas are non-aggressive types.
well, of course i am biased. i like tarantulas but reptiles rock!

most places have reptile shows - there you can look at lots of different kinds of reptiles and buy one directly from a breeder. captive bred is much better than wild caught and most reptiles are now available as captive bred. the wild caught/imported ones usually have parasites.
there are also many herpetology (fancyspeak for reptiles & amphibians) groups that meet regularly and joining one of them is a good way to learn and interact with other reptile fans.

arabianprincess, these actually originate from australia,
so it might not have been the one that you saw,
if you were in yemen,
you might have seen the yemen chameleon,
which i really like lol!

raOnar check out a crested gecko,
they have sticky adhesive feet so they can walk on glass and all sorts,
they also jump as well lol!
they also change colour from going dark to light & light to dark,
but dont change as in red to blue, if you get me? lol
the best thing is that you dont need to feed them crickets and so on,
because you can buy a crested gecko diet which you simply mix with water and feed them, they can solely live on just this diet.

check out these sites they are good..

For all who are considering any type of pet. Please stop and think of the reasons you want it and be certain that at least part of the reasons are for the good of the creature. Pets are living creations and deserve the respect and protection all living creatures deserve.

When you do decide on a pet, learn all you can about it before getting one. Not just what it is like as a baby, but what it is like when grown.

all pets take a lot of work and time, be certain that you can afford the time to care properly for it and that your time spent will help you grow closer in love of Allaah(swt)
