Saw a bunch of males and found one female. I think they are Aphonopelma Chalcodes. No reptiles though.

Excellent, I'm still waiting to find my first tarantula.

There are probably some on my little ranchette out here in TX--our friends a couple of miles south killed one in their garage the size of a softball (although they tend to exaggerate, I saw the pic!).

We do have confirmed black widows on the premises (individual found in garage a couple of weeks ago):

Also found this neonate atrox in our flower bed right off the front porch:
