Frank the 2nd, is a Striped Knee Tarantula. I got it on April 7, 2006. Maybe I will have better luck keeping this one than I did with the last tarantula. My last tarantula Frank was a Rose hair tarantula, it was either lost or eaten by my cat. The cat knocked the small cage off the desk and when it hit the ground the top came off. When I came home the spider was no where to be found … But this one is in a lot larger and heavier cage.
