EdIt .. No OFFeNSe , But Ive never been Stung or Bitten by ANY of my Inverts .. A careful owner avoids the sting or bite . Lets face facts here .. a NORMAL sting can kill a person if that person has an allergy ! I say Inverts are the Look and See type of pet .. I have handled my Inverts but do so as little as possible. Its best to let the Invert do his thing with the least amount of handling as possible , besides stress to the animal you always take that 1 chance .....Originally posted by Richard_uk

Right you are , and I guess my acting like a blabbering " Im a better than you are acting type of person " doesnt make things that much better . I have handled an Emperor , and a few smaller species . But what I was really leaning towards was the hotter species and pointing out that Emps can be hot to a person that doesnt handle bee stings well ... I likewise have dont the Touchy Feely thing in a long time . I guess after youve had them awhile you dont get into that as much ;POriginally posted by Richard_uk

I I personaly don't think there is a keeper on here, including you (no offense!! ) who hasnt at some point had a 'hands on' session with there 'pets'.
