Brachypelma klaasi "Mexican Pink Beauty" Rehouse and Care

[@The-Spider-King]

What a gorgeous spider! Always a good day when there's a new Tom's Big Spiders video 😁

[@TomsBigSpiders]

Thanks so much, Spider King Jay!

[@RealMelodyBlue]

oOoOO they come in pink 💗😍 I think I want this one, and no, I still am trying to make up my mind as which to pick as my first T. LoL 😂 but this, this one I like. My wolf spider I caught died after caring for it almost a year, I've heard they don't live very long and I think it was a male. But PINK 💗, A pink tarantula!!! Love it ❣️

[@TomsBigSpiders]

Hahaha They do! This would be an awesome one to start with, if you can find one. haha No, wolf spiders are true spiders, so they usually don't last much more than a year or so.

One of my favourites too and the only Brachypelma that I have and want!

[@TomsBigSpiders]

It's a beautiful spider!

[@mikepetersen7319]

Definetly one of the most beautiful T's. And they're are similar with G.rosea for they get a bit dull between moults but when freshly moulted they're just breathtaking.

Agreed, Mike! Thanks!

Hi Tom, Gorgeous spider and great video as always. I was wandering if you have any Bonnetina species in your care.They have made an appearance in recent years in UK and having in mind how beautiful they are its a shame that it seems there is not much content or mentions out there for them. I am dead set to make some room and to get some of them with Bonnetina minax being on top of the list. Keep up the good work. Regards Konstantin

[@TomsBigSpiders]

Hello, Konstantin! Unfortunately, I don't have any Bonnetina at the moment. I DID have one, but she died as a juvenile, and I have no idea why. I'm still upset about it, as I had been raising her for a couple years, and she was seemingly doing great.

[@Graniteer]

Finally picked one up from Joe Rossi after seeing a video you did about him. Finally have the Brachypelma genus closed out!

[@TomsBigSpiders]

That's awesome...congrats!

[@reading.with.creepy.crawlies]

I love how chonky she is! I do not have a B. Klaasi yet, but have several Brachypelma species. I enjoy the ones I have, but this girl convinced me to seek out this variety. When colors come in on the Brachypelma, it truly is rewarding after the wait. Her coloration reminds me of the Tliltocatl Vagans, another species I adore.

[@tarottarantulas]

I love the Brachys and Grammostolas 💕 I enjoy my T. Vagans as well, I think it's just as pretty as my Iheringi. Little bit of an under rated T imo.

[@TomsBigSpiders]

She IS chonky! hahaha And I agree that the wait is ultimately well worth it.

[@georgecardiff1946]

Absolutely fantastic Tom, she's stunning and definitely one worth having, I think the Brachypelma genus is brilliant overall.

[@TomsBigSpiders]

It really is an amazing genus. Thanks so much, George!

one of my favorite brachys along with albiceps and emilia! great video and very informative as always tom! we the community appreciate the work you put in on your videos! thank you for providing some insights for the tarantula community! Question: what is your favorite tarantula genus? one for new world and one for old world and which one is your overall favorite genus?

[@TomsBigSpiders]

I would definitely have a hard time picking my favorite Brachy. I would have to throw my emilia, hamorii, smithi, and auratum into the mix. :) Favorite genera would probably be Phormictopus (NW) and Poecilotheria (OW).

Glad to see you love yours that much, my first tarantula is a B. Klaasi, and I love mine too, he's going to molt soon I think as he put up a wall in from of his hide and hasn't eaten for a couple weeks now, he just sits in there hanging out. Got him as a juvenile about a month and a half ago, and I definitely want to get more tarantulas now 😂

OMG! She is absolutely gorgeous, Tom! I love the Brachypelma species, but I also enjoy the Aphonapelmas as well. Add on the Grammastola species as well. In fact, I noticed recently after my G. porteri molted, she has these adorable pinkish setie (sp?) down around where her femur attaches to her carapace and down by her feet. I bought her as a sling about a year ago and she's gotten bigger, sorta, she's about 1" now. Since I'm working currently, it's tax season, I've been checking out more T's I want to buy. I also need to purchase another set of shelves as the one I have is full. And then some...lol! Hope you and Billie have a great week. Stay warm, another winter storm or two are on their way.

Got it, bud. That is absolutely insane! I, too, wonder if it would be an adaptation to get more oxygen? It's an intriguing thought!

[@luffebassen]

@@TomsBigSpiders hey...yes i was a bit excited the day i discovered it. So i might have mentioned it a few places for you to see it ASAP 😅 But yes, from what iv learned then its "mutations" that then creates adaptations to a new environment if its beneficial, because it will then naturally have an advantage over its competitors without this mutations and so potentially its offspring will fair better and slowly but surely this mutation will take over and become a natural state of the species. But ofc in case of my LP, then this is just wishful thinking on my point. Will have to take a look at its next molt on the inside and then have some specialists take a look. Its in early pre-molt by now, so probably about a month from now until i know more. Will keep you in the loop. Have a good day Tom 👍
