I agree, looks like a yellow sac. there's been at least two threads on here just past two weeks on them, so try the search. they do seem to have a serious bite.

they have been known to show recluse-type symptoms, so i wouldn't test it. they are not inclined to bite at all though, as i've handled these before. the only time i would think they would bite was if you were to roll over onto them or something like that. not dangerous per say, but you have a possibility of having an adverse effect to the venom.
