Picture of G.Rosea bite

I'd just opened the lid of her enclosure to throw some food in, and that was the thanks I got!

Ungrateful little wench. LOL.

Glad to hear it was a dry bite Oli, otherwise you could be in some serious pain.

True ehough Phil,
That is indeed what you get from them, i've got three OBT's here and the only time they dont "show off" and "look tough" is when they're webbed up and moulting, even then, they're probably thinking about it !!!

[Peter Lacey]

no wonder they have the alternative name of Orange Bitey Thing
beauty and the beast comes to mind

Wow that picture is amazing! All sounds like fair comment to me. I was only playing devils advocate really- although with regards to the dangers posed by phasmids- some are pretty mean!
