Robb found some ugly little creatures at the end of the summer. It was fun to see how much Kiya enjoyed holding the snake. The tarantula spent the night in a cantainer at our house for one night and then we let it go in an open field. I did not like the spider at all. But when we had to let the snake go Kiya was sad. She had named it and everything. I still say NO snakes for pets ever!
