You're more likely to get stung by a bee on a windy day that in any other weather. ----- The tarantula spends most of its life within its burrow, which is an 18-inch vertical hole with an inch-wide opening. When male tarantulas are between the ages of 5 to 7 years, they leave the burrow in search of a female, usually in the early fall. This migration actually signals the end of their life cycle. The males mate with as many females as they can, and then they die around mid-November. **** HAVE A GREAT THURSDAY AND REMEMBER, JOKES FOR THE DAY ARE ON MY PAGE, STOP BY FOR A GRIN, OR A GIGGLE, AND IF YOU VISIT MY PAGE, I WILL VISIT YOURS.
