What are the chances of eating a spider while you're asleep? (This made me physically recoil when I saw it. I may never sleep again...)

For example, they don't get the large, round abdomen unless they've mated. If they have mated, they will produce egg sac after egg sac when well fed. Unmated, too good of feeding and they grow too fast and split their chitin.

They are not at all aggressive, but most people are terrified of them.]]>7/3/2009 9:11:25 PM2009-07-03T21:11:25+01:00
