heh, i can't believe i forgot to file a bite report!

i am almost positive i got bit by a ~1.25"/3cm dls unsexed spiderlings. the spiderling made a break for freedom that entailed running around my naked arms... at one point i cupped the spider against my upper arm and felt a little pin prick. i thought it might have bitten me but as the spider was still lose i didn't take time to make observations

about 15 minutes later i had a definite itch and small raised bump (<1cm radius). within a few hours all symptoms disappeared and never reappeared.

saucy little bug

p.s. this is the ONLY time i have been bit by a tarantula out of thousands of times playing with all kinds of species
