>> [_] friendsofsandwiches 2982471 Goat face opens up to reveal spider fangs and mouth and more eyes. Spins silk out it's ass. Walks on walls. Spider goat! Spider goat. Does whatever a spider... coats.

>> [_] Anon 2755686 What's the application of having spider silk proteins in goat milk?
>> [_] Anon 2755688 >># You can make spider silk out of it.
>> [_] Anon 2755692 >># why not just use spiders?
>> [_] Anon 2755695 >># Because spiders are small and challenging to domesticate.
>> [_] Anon 2755697 I like how it says "playing god" at the end. This playing god shit is hindering scientific progression. I can't believe people actually think the shit they see in scifi movies about the horrors of "playing god" are real. Like we're gonna wake up one day and shit will be crazy or something.
>> [_] Anon 2755700 >># >># Spider silk sized up to scale, would be like 3 or 4 times stronger than steel cable IIRC. Also its extremely soft giving it a lot of potential for textiles. However since spiders produce sush tiny amounts of what what would be required to make fabric out of it, this is a more economic and efficient way of doing it.
>> [_] Anon 2755711 >># Well, there's the Africanized Bees, AKA Killer Bees, which broke loose from laboratory containment and now plague the world with their extremely aggressive behavior, endless stinging potential, and oh so delicious honey.
>> [_] Anon 2755712 >># >># While spiders do produce silk and some spider species, such as the orb weaver, are safe to capture and 'milk' silk from, it's the quantity and type of silk produced that sets the Spider Goats apart. IIRC, the spider goats are spliced with black widow genes, which produce a web with a much higher tensile strength - so strong, that you can create bullet proof vests from thickly woven panels of the stuff. Goats can also be milked every day, and generate goats milk as a by product of the silk farming, which can be sold to offset costs of straining the spider silk proteins from the goats milk. A spider, on the other hand, can only create a web the size of your head in a few days, and needs to consume insects and rest before doing it again. Meanwhile, your spider goat farm can produce enough spider silk per day to make a yard of silk, I believe. Haven't got a source on the quantities, though.

>> [_] Anon 2755800 God will punish us all for this. I'm not joking about that at all. If you think the muslims executing us, the earthquakes, the tornados, the hurricanes, and the democrats in power are coincidence, you need to read Revelations. King James version of the Baptist bible. Read it and fear your God. It's the only way to have eternal life after the great grape press.
>> [_] Anon 2755803 Once there was a Robe made entirely from Golden Orb weaver Silk. All Craftsmanship is of the highest quality. Its adorned with rings of Golden Orb weaver Spider Silk. http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/g/ golden-spider-silk/
>> [_] Anon 2755814 >># they only kill 1-2 people a year, the whole killer bee thing is just a misinformed nickname
>> [_] Anon 2755823 >># >http://www.vam.ac.uk/content/articles/g /golden-spider-silk/ That is simply stunning... I've always wondered what such a thing might look like. Amazing fabric.
>> [_] Anon 2755826 >># Have you ever seen a spider web? There's barely any silk in one of those. If you want to make anything significant out of it, as a manufactured product, you are going to need a lot more.
>> [_] Anon 2755845 >># This Video is pretty much the same as the lower one on the first link, I'll post it anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFF68_bM E9E I also think this is breathtaking, I wish I had a chance to touch the fabric or pull on it once. I imagine its surface to be even smoother than Silkworm Silk. Also its golden shine is just astonishing.
>> [_] Anon 2755854 >># I feel like it would be a much simpler process to just reverse engineer the spider silk process to create a synthetic fiber. It doesn't seem like it would be to hard with today's technology and there's a higher chance of refinement and advancement. This just seems like the one guy who wanted to think differently at the cost of efficiency.

>> [_] Anon 2748392 that's crazy, i gotta go watch this series now. thanks anon.
>> [_] Anon 2748405 thats pretty cool actually
>> [_] Anon 2748440 wouldnt be surprised if their udders eventually get blocked and develop necrosis. nature usually deals with abominations handily
>> [_] Anon 2748441 Although it is cool, the fact that there's nothing that's perceptible by a normal human suggesting there's something different about those goats is just funny when there's a guy going nuts over it. >"so they're just normal goats" >"so you milk them like normal' >"this looks just like regular milk I just found that a bit funny.
