they're not pets. they're roomies

Imagine someone breaking into that shed at night looking for bikes or something only to find you come out covered in them

I'd have a heart attack walking into that.

You’re a different breed my friend, I could never

I wanna do this one day when I move out. Beautiful creatures they are 🥰

Those spiders have really strong nets. Seen similar ones in Hong Kong. You can throw large branches into them and they get caught.

Had one in the yard last summer here in Georgia. Absolutely gorgeous girl. She had a male in the web with her when we found her, but haven’t seen any this year. Could just be in the more ‘grown’ part of our yard we rarely go in, I suppose. I’m waiting to find a Joro or two in our yard, could be any summer now. Joro webs are fun to play with as well, both have exceptionally strong silk. Seems the Banana/Goldens have a paler yellow in their silk than Joros do, I love looking at their webs!

Must be webbed as fuck in there since those make large webs but must on the other hand be totally free of bugs though

You take her to shows? I've never heard of a spider show I'd love to go to one. I wish I had a shed or basement to house all mine

Next time wear your spiderman costume to blend in 🤣Must costume a lot with heating & lighting ?

The spiders be like "what are you doing inside of my sheeed?"

We had these ALL OVER the (very humid) southern coastal area of NC. We also had lots of Argiope "writing spiders"/"zipper spiders" which were nearly as big as the Golden orb weaver... one major difference is the shape and color patterns of the spinnerette, along with the fact that golden orb weavers generally keep the same web for adult life (unless it is disturbed or destroyed), opting for repairs and "patch-ups," whereas the argiope "zig-zag"/"zipper" spider (named for the thick vertical "zig-zag" stabilimentum, in the center of its orb web), tends to eat, and "re-spin" its web in the middle of the night, though not always every night. Also, while the silk (especially in its egg sacks) has a golden tint, it is nowhere NEAR the deep-golden color of the golden orb weaver's silk! Ironically, I have a deep phobia, not so much of spiders, but of spider webs -more specifically, the physical feeling of them (same goes for catepillar cocoons!), yuck! However, I am absolutely fascinated by spiders, and watching them spin webs -especially orb webs! After working HVAC and electrical in the south, where I entered many spider-infested crawlspaces, my phobea became less severe, though i still carried a stick, or a piece of "s-"cleat or drive-cleat (used for fastening sections of metal ductwork) with me as a "spiderweb sword," as I called it... Some of the other guys feared the copperheads, but I'm less scared of deadly snakes than I am of harmless spiderwebbing... I suppose I always had a few screws loose!

They are hanging around.

Ok, I just subscribed, saw this and love spiders, and that car in your profile picture, lol! I'm in Texas and do spider and every critter that comes to my property...I do videos too.

*this is Claudia*

They are outstanding. Not native to Arizona so may I ask, do you send away for them? If so, where? I've been on a hunt myself. I would like a female for free range living in my bedroom.

Common here in South Florida

somebody please call in an airstrike on that shed

How big do they get but also what’s the care guide for them?

Wtf I like spiders but you on a Another level

I saw these types, i was told they are very venomous 😢

Do a feeding video with every spider

Amazing! I saw your post on Arachnoboards -- did you do anything special to get the eggs to hatch? I really want to raise these guys and I found 2 egg sacs recently around Austin, Texas. Do you know if they have to overwinter to properly hatch? I would really love to keep this species

Hey I'm in Maryvale phoenix az do you still live here if so is there a way to contact you to buy 1

What is there favorite thing to eat??

Are there webs really strong?

Nephila clavipes

Do they lay eggs and breed in there too?

Dude wtf how can u live there

that is the venomous spider right???

So do you ever milk them for silk?

I love my pesticide license.

I would not keep anything like that for a pet

Those aren't pets, you even thinking they are is asinine, they would get you the moment they feel like it.
