  • Win a Tarantula in a town Raffle!!!!!

    Hi all.

    Yeasterday we attended stockport town centre festival and bike show, whilst looking around a friend told us that they were selling raffle ticket.
    Among the prizes were the usual raffle prizes and some tarantulas!!!

    Yes live ones in pet pals with a thin layer of bark chippings and an old sponge. They were open for anyone to win, there was no age limit on the tickets and later on we did see people walking about with said prizes.
    Adult Chilian Roses marked as “Pink toe”.

    The show is a well run, well organised event and is attended by thousands of people but this sucks...there MUST be some kind of restriction on live animals as prizes.

    stockport.gov.uk. The place to find services and information provided by Stockport Council and its partners.

    Tarantula raffle

    The new animal welfare bill will make it illegal to give animals away as prizes.

    And quite right too IMO!

    These spiders could easily have ended up with somebody who wasn't interested in them Giving genuine hobbists a bad name if they got dumped somewhere.
