Happy Christmas

Happy holidays kat! Best wishes to you and your family!

Arrrgh...Pokies and OBTs strike fear in me black heart, lass

[@UncleKiki89]

I love this. I’m “afraid” to rehouse my P. rufilta’s but this gives me hope. Thank you :) *Update* it was a bit of a process, but it was a successful one. Thank you for this video.

[@PeppersnGlowworms]

No presents in the bag... Only POKIES!

[@lionvscuddletom]

Such a hugh fan of yours. Struggled with Arachnophobia for my entire life but after watching your vids I decided to work against it by confronting. In january I get my first jumping spider. Still a bit freaked out about it but you were the one helping me to see how cute they are. Thank you for that! :) Wish you a happy new year with many new little friends to rehouse! :D

[@hardlucknate6769]

Happy holidays tarantula Queen

[@mariolisjak459]

Hi.Exottera terraiums have iron mesh, your T. can stuck a leg on mesh. It hapens to my T and she lost a leg ... You can change mesh with acrylic sheets.

[@andrewdeas1]

^^^ yeah also this.

[@persephone2706]

That's what I thought as well..

[@philtrevis]

LOVING the hat. Merry Christmas Kat!! Love to the family.

[@aphiliarachno]

The rehousing method seems to work well. Have a marry Christmas!!

[@abyss9543]

Gorgeous T's Kat. Very nice.

[@Solitude11-11]

This is brilliant, really confidence inspiring and seems to be less stressful for the pokies. I really want one 😊 Happy Christmas to you and all your family!

[@RoyIMVU]

WOW! Your p.Metallica is a bolty one! My pokies have been so chill. I recently movies my vitatta from the AMAC to the Adult one and she strolled out so calm. I was nervous since I was just putting the amac positioned to the exo tera. This of course might change at some point. My p.metallica (Blue) is averse to light but usually takes a moment to retreat into a dark spot. It is also ALWAYS on the glass. (My p.sp "lowland" always in the dirt curtain fortress. Only seen it out a few times)

[@mollycontent]

This is actually how I caught my first jumping spider with the Ziploc bag, I had to lure her out of the top of a Mercedes with a cricket in a bag 😂 good times!

[@houseflygaming]

I feel like I'm not the only person who would scream and be happy if someone got me a T. for Christmas

[@robinw1312]

I GOT A T FOR CHRISTMAS

[@matthewpetersen4417]

watching rehousing videos getting my wits up lol I actually am going to try the zip lock bag method. Its only a pumpkin patch but I have never kept a dawf before and its about 4 inches. This T seems a little slick and a quicker thinker.

[@swishyfish2003]

Thank you SO MUCh for this video! I have been dreading rehousing my Y. Diversipes for a little bit now because she can go SO FAST, but then I remembered this video you made, came back to rewatch, and successfully rehoused her with the bag method!

[@KHWatts1]

Thank you for introducing me to the world of spiders! Got my P. regius yesterday and I'm in love! Sammy the jumping spider :) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

[@leemartinson4839]

Re-housing a old world tarantula is like being on ecstasy

[@williamhardway6436]

Hahahha the old dance of the sugar plum fairy! Or a mad russians Christmas. (Its the same song!!) Youre brilliant. Good luck with your new years things and happy holidays ❤️

[@krystlem8920]

Happy Christmas! Well boxing day :p Great video, pokies are a bit...spirited? Lol (don't want to say crazy)

[@MOONOVERMIAMI]

hello great video merry Christmas

[@swanson598]

I’ve been waiting a Pokie for a while, this was helpful. Thanks for the video. Merry Christmas ❤️

[@tonisears2906]

It's almost time to rehome my only T, a GBB I got as a sling in July. I think I'm going to try this bag method because she's pretty skittish and fast.

[@leannemillar78]

Merry Christmas to you and your family kat 💓 x

[@angielovesowls]

Merry Christmas. I really enjoy your videos

[@katieryan1641]

Kat:with this nice long pant brush Me:this sssoo long *looks at my tiny pant brush*

[@livjsp]

Happy Christmas Kat 🤩

[@tarantula_town]

I just posted a POKIE Rehome video! Without a bag!! Let me know what you think?

[@jackvillalba4317]

Thanks for posting the video! Love the red lipstick btw!

[@elizabethelworthy5197]

I have 32 tarantulas 1 gecko I snake 2 jumping spiders and a couple snails a bird and cat and a mantis and fish

[@mariahhead3788]

Merry Christmas to you 💚🎄🎁

[@beardedgent2178]

Merry Christmas my spider friends

[@debishere9060]

Merry Xmas to you and your family.. and where did you get your black Santa hat !! ..

[@babyshea89]

Merry Christmas Eve Kat!!! Wishing you and your family human and not all the best in the new year!! 💚🐍🖤🕷❤ And fingers crossed that 2021 will be WAY better then 2020 was!! 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@hunthighlights281]

I just let mine run and then catch with a catch cup. After you rehouse 20 or 30 you get used to it. Have you tried the hollow cork tubes? Pokies seem to love them more.

[@kukri1877]

I moved my P. Regalis with this today. Thank you!

[@Z3R0810]

So can't wait for my three new arrivals from fear not tarantulas' only have one pokie now which is the Indian ornamental. Waiting on the arrival of my P Metallica my Singapore Blue in my Trinidad Chevron

[@BuffNerdInCa]

Thoughts on tarsi getting stuck on the mesh at the top of the enclosure? Before I go tearing out the top.. and replace with plexi glass... is it actually necessary on these enclosures?

[@stephaniebruner8534]

Merry Christmas

[@yahuahforcealwaysexisted189]

You might have one female poki and one male poki which means you can pair them in the future.

[@martincrazereptiles8477]

i had purple tree tarantula jump out of it enclosure i thought i never go see again as went down hole in wooden floor but on christmas morning got l baby locaust live food kept in mesh butterfly cage use feed my slings as movr age got side glimps it baby purple tree tarantuala was hungry but so glad got him or her back

[@Annathesurfer]

Hmm will I use this on my p.irminia who makes my heart race? Yup most likely 😂

[@HarmfulOpinions]

Cool way of managing these guys that's safer for you and for them. I'm gonna stick with my rosie though hahaha.

[@tulpfiction8920]

Did you give her any more anchor points to web?

[@disruptivegarage]

wait what, shouldnt it be a female then? considering there were two slits

[@SilverlonewolfX]

Poking pokies.

[@havanbarnes]

😮 zip lock bags the new meta

[@chloewright1]

@Tarantula Kat happy holidays kat! 🎄🎁🕷️❤️

[@JCNxp]

Definitely a male 😁🙌 and great video

[@rachelquinn9458]

Hey you poked the pokis and they hokey pokied outta there!!!

[@kevintyler9681]

Isnt it possible for your spiders to break off toes and fangs in the screen lid?

[@Will40th]

Like the bag method it would work for some of the obt too

[@ghostoperationswithcheukgu9844]

Patterns on pokies are killer gorgeous!

Merry Christmas🎅🎅🎅

[@WhiteIndoraptor]

Merry Christmas Kat 🙂

[@WhiteLightning777]

I've heard of the bag method but this is the first time I've actually seen it done. There's another variation on that. Since your cage had air holes and cork bark glued to the sides, I'd slowly submerge the cage in cold water. This gives the T 2 choices, cold wet feet or going up into the bag on it's own. When I rehoused my pokies and my H pulchripes, I can attest to them REALLY not liking cold feet. I used the moat method in the bathtub. Since the water would enter slowly, the T shouldn't get to perturbed. That's definitely how I'm going to do a feather leg or H mac if I go that route. Sadly enough, one of my P striata molted but had no fangs. My C versicolor ate a cricket, became unable to climb the glass and then passed away. That's 2 open cages. The others are doing fine, no indication of illness. I suspect those crickets might've had something wrong but can't prove it.

[@dorabrooks76]

A week late, but... I'm sorry for your losses. I hope it was just a sad coincidence with the two, and that the rest of your fuzzy friends will be just fine, with no bad-cricket outcomes. Sounds like they're in good hands, though!

[@persephone2706]

Noo, iron mesh tops... 😨

[@JJasperPaperCo.]

Silly question...why do they call them Pokies?

[@MessyLittleFoodie]

.. Pokémon

[@mainemade300]

My c pagunus is fast scary

[@thewelshtarantula1955]

Sorry kat but I really believe that the plastic bottle method is much better way to rehouse a arboreal tarantula.

[@kingdomreturn304]

Ah Mark does that with his, that guy omg hes got a brazillian wander spider, but luckily has it safely in an enclosure, he uses a plastic bottle for it too I think

[@thewelshtarantula1955]

@@kingdomreturn304 I would never have a fenutria ferra, that's playing with fire 😂

[@mariestubbs4606]

Have a Merry Christmas Kat ...xx

[@Mujirama]

no decoration :S

[@joerod9935]

This my wife 😤

[@Tupat95]

Nice method

[@kaylab1262]

Are the screen lids only a concern for terrestrial species?

[@tarantulakat]

That seems to be the case, however the kinds of screens I avoid all together are the thicker ones you see on aquariums.

[@rebelicious407]

I use a huge ziplock and a beating stick to catch y Arboreal spiders from the trees here in central florida

[@anissaprien7102]

Beautiful

[@RandomJulia24]

Merry Christmas lol

[@michellecalderon1018]

Loved the video. You have so many beautiful spiders ❤. Happy Holidays...

[@dukeboynton9356]

You should really get a Carcharodon Carcharias!! They're very aggressive when hungry, but absolute sweethearts when full!!

[@gavinf4777]

Hey kat are we able to message you about questions? i have a question about my jumper about molting and you have some jumpers :)

[@williamhardway6436]

Can the next female arachnid be name Leia please? ❤️❤️❤️ " Princess" for short

[@BuffNerdInCa]

Looking at my P. metallica.... looking over at the exact same exoterra... Option B is a Tarantula cribs enclosure I just got in the mail.. Loving this video.. And wondering if the Tarantula Cribs not having access through top (front door only) is a bad idea. When transferring these supersonic T's... I generally stick to the cardboard divider method.. one solid divider, one with a hole in it. slide one out the other in when in place.

[@suuuuuue1899]

I love your channel🤍🤍 so satisfying seeing you make there new homes

[@mariainesteixeiraneves]

"this thing looks ridiculous in here" really caught me off guard lmao

[@Xin0180]

I have a P Regalis who I named Lighning because I thought she would be really fast but she is surprisingly not bolty at all. For a poke, she is actually really calm. Which is weird but I ain't complaining.

[@bigrich525]

The bag rehousing is very interesting and I think I am going to try it when I have to rehouse one of my H macs. Well. .. For science that's why. Great video Kat!

[@Lisa-eu9fy]

❤🕷🕸😍

[@rendercrap]

Great video. Thank you! I have a 1" P Metallica and it's my first pokie. This def eased my nerves a bit. 🙏

[@izzysears9586]

Im terrified of spiders. Like wolf spiders for example. You know. Spiders that get into your bed and bite you. Just regular spiders that get into your home. I’m getting over my fear. And you have made tarantulas so cute. I’ve never hated tarantulas. I’m gonna get one :) thank you for teaching me ♥️

[@vedastevenson4190]

Cool kat

[@InSpidersITrust]

Thanks for sharing this. Interesting video.

[@heidiwilliams7024]

Once again a nice video. I wish you and your family a wonderful merry Christmas

Kat! Merry Christmas. I hope you and yours are well. Black santa hat is the goth mood i show up for. Youre good in every way

[@Amy-xb5jl]

Merry Christmas from the UK - I love your content. Thank you!

The first pokie was really pretty ☺️. Great job Kat!!! I trust you had a nice Christmas 😊. Tyfs God bless you

[@051adam]

Happy holidays tarantula kat and community! Found your channel through dark den! Glad for that! Thank you for the awesome content!

[@dannyuitz]

You need more substrate perhaps - help to keep the humidity without the risk of mold...

[@lauraclegg794]

I'm getting my first Pokie next week, I'm getting a Regalis Sling. I can't wait xx

[@disturbed4life844]

Merry Christmas love all ur vids :) be safe and keep up the amazing work
