My most FOOD-AGGRESSIVE Tarantulas FEAST on WORMS!.. ft Goliath Bird Eater Dancing

[@tarantulakat]

Happy Thanksgiving! Disclaimer: These species of tarantula featured in this video are known to have big appetites and respond quickly to food, however towards humans they are shy, skittish and mostly docile making them really great pets!

[@Gdn11]

Happy genocide day🥳

[@ravenwings7945]

You need a bigger place lol. And you are a coffee drinker

[@Harlem55]

Brachypelma sp., when observed to have bald patches, is usually a sign of stress but some fungals can do it as well. Youre fine as long as you dont observe exudate or crusting appearing similar to impentigo in humans.

[@katherinechildress6660]

Zelda was so gentle with her prey, it almost makes you wonder what goes on in her mind, because in my opinion that was an “oh, my food god has delivered sustenance, I must dance to give thanks”

[@misslevochki]

Zelda doing some occult rituals to thank the human species who offered her a sacrifice before taking it to her lair.

[@laur.b9679]

Zelda's interpretive dance really spoke to me

[@tarantulakat]

She’s so talented 😊

[@vickiezaccardo1711]

@@tarantulakat What is the little dance about?

[@luffebassen]

@@vickiezaccardo1711 Its about webbing up the prey item to prevent it from coming together once it starts chewing it to pieces.

[@vickiezaccardo1711]

@@luffebassen thank you

[@luffebassen]

@@vickiezaccardo1711 Preventing it from falling apart i meant. My English is not always the best when im in a rush :D You are welcome

[@VergilArcanis]

I relate to these on a spiritual level: i like to stay still and be secluded, but will snag food quickly and retreat back to whatever lair i'm in

[@Absurdeityx]

This is also myself aswell 😅💖🕷🕸

[@locabynature]

I loved the shots you got of Zelda at the end. it was beautiful to watch her moving around. I noticed at one point that she almost looked like a cgi tarantula. It was really cool to watch. 🖤

[@tarantulakat]

She’s so big sometimes when I’m watching her I feel like it’s not real 😅

[@locabynature]

@@tarantulakat that's exactly what it felt like at times! you could cgi some tall buildings under her and it would be perfect. 🤣

[@franceseguren1313]

I was thinking she reminded me of what I see in my head for Shelob from LOTR. Big, beautiful girl!

[@IparanoiaZ]

Looked like she was webbing the worms together making a food net. Because she drug them both in and I noticed the webbing keeping the previous worm and the new worm in biting range. That's really clever

[@Scarlet.Moon.Prince83]

The calming music in the background made this video incredibly soothing. If we can call huge tarantulas eating live food soothing. 🤣

[@andrewchambers7639]

The music with Zelda moving around the worm and getting her web around it was fantastic to watch, therapeutic almost. It was fascinating to watch. Anyone who hadn't seen the video here would have thought this was documentary footage. Like you could almost get an idea of the thought processes this spider had. This was well shot.

[@kerryturner5844]

Ye it was so cool lol

[@catherinehubbard1167]

Those hornworms are so brilliantly colored they look artificial, so I imagined those spiders carrying around their Christmas stockings. Maybe when they carried them into their dens they were looking for a place to hang them up.

[@audrab27]

Thank u thought they were gummy worms then they moved so I had more questions lol

[@fuzzybunny5432]

The happy dance is soooo cute 🥰

[@jakelance6]

She was wrapping it in web

[@FrederickDunn]

THAT was just AWESOME! Thank you so much for sharing, and I'm so glad I noticed this in my feed :)

[@serialcarpens290]

No pun intended.

[@kathyinwonderlandl.a.8934]

Loved watching Zelda with her worm webbing it up enjoyed seeing it so up close with the hair and the music was ethereal and perfect accompaniment

[@megatfreak]

I love your videos so much! You've helped me to overcome a 30 year long fear of spiders, and especially tarantulas. I even got my first pet tarantula this past weekend, an A. avicularia. It's very tiny right now, but I'm really excited to see how big it will get and to see its pattern and colors change as well :) Thank you again so much for all of your work!

[@rebel4466]

Oh what an exciting time. First Tarantula! Have fun! And maybe look for room for another one. It will happen lol

[@mygiboxatgmail]

Pinktoes are very docile, 2 yrs later do you still have her? did you get any other species?

[@Riddler1701]

Zelda is definitely my favorite of your collection, not because of the species, but because of how calm she is for her species.

[@suppressor808]

I have a really bad case of arachnophobia... Yet I've always been intrigued by spiders. I could never really be around them physically but they are such a fascinating animal. I can't help myself when it comes to research and learning. I hope one day I can break free from the fear and own my own!

[@Wot50202]

You know you were just like me. I had arachnophobia just like you and now I have T’s. I started off with a Rosie that was little more than a pet rock. Standard enclosure, enough for her to dig, and a water dish. She barely moved, and even when I gave her food she never bolted. Definitely docile enough and calm to get your toes wet

[@jazuzara]

I have a two tarantulas as a pet and I it helped my arachnophobia. I still have it will most free spiders. But I touched a jumping spider the other day so that's a win

[@michelleusher2499]

I noticed that while she was doing her little "dance", Zelda was actually webbing up her meal so it didn't move too far, smart Tarantula!

[@loquinbritton3186]

I had never really considered a bird eater before, but both Zelda and the pink toe are so beautiful!!! The GBB used to be my dream tarantula but now one of them is a horned baboon so I was really happy to see yours. I love the feeding videos so much!

[@tarantulakat]

I was not a fan of the “big brown tarantulas” and now they’re some of my 2 favorites lol.

[@Goreny.]

Zelda’s shot was so beautiful, my god. Loved all your T’s but Zelda just blessed my eyes

[@rhiannonkinney4164]

Zelda did such a beautiful dance for you. How precious is that!? You have some beautiful and adorable Spiders. I want to get a Spider so bad. Hopefully, someday :)

[@tnfc1901]

I love feeding videos. Get to see so many tarantulas!

[@susanmartin3762]

I love how you just throw these worms at them. Like "EAT!!! HERE'S YOUR WORM SO EAT!!! 😡

[@PrintPression]

I hated spiders.. still don't "like" them but somehow I stumbled onto your channel. I feel like I am having exposure therapy and I appreciate you. I still though could never imagine living in a house with all these guys!!!!

[@TheDuckie1990]

I can't believe how healthy they all are! You are such a good 8 legs momma!

[@cubbi2789]

Love watching your feeding videos with the different species of tarantulas. It also helps me see how big my slings will get once they’ve grown. Love the dance, my A. Seemani does thus every time he gets a gummy worm

[@wrallpaul66]

Really nice work, your videography is amazing, awesome shots and angles that allow the viewer to see many interesting details of your spiders and their behavior. Thank you Kat.

[@taytonclait]

Loved the cosmic ambience at the end with the delicate Zelda dance. Also celebrity stillshots of your spiders are great too. Great to see you posting

[@SerpentLipsss]

There needs to be a genre of videos where it's just tarantulas eating to zen music

[@rjzavala87]

That music at the end with zelda really did a great job of capturing the mystique of these awesome creatures. Well done.

[@TreeWolf]

1:27 its butt slightly lifting up before taking the worm... Was definitely ready to kick hairs if it wouldnt have been food 🤣

[@tarantulakat]

yes they are one of my most tiny hair kickers xD

[@OvelNick]

The music... It felt magical watching her spin around. 👍👍

[@Rat2rrj]

I find it really cute when the spider holds the prey before going to town like "? ... ! ^^^^ "

[@butterflyk3542]

Ah a good long feeding vid ✨ amazing ✨ And blessed with a Goliath dance for the night 💃

[@tarantulakat]

Haha yes! Ty

[@shannonberger4689]

Zelda's dance was beautiful! Perfect music too. I think she deserves a much bigger horn worm. She's a big magnificent Goliath!

[@NathanielPaice]

As an arachnophobe you are the bravest person on the planet to me 😮

[@melaniepalmer57]

I’m new to tarantulas. I’ve always liked spiders though my daughter is an arachnophobe. I’d love to get one. They are so majestic. Thank you for all your information. I’m learning lots 🖤

[@explorer_9851]

Aww my curly hair ( Nova) always dances when she eats . Always makes me smile 💕

[@huard484]

You’re the first woman I’ve ever seen that shows absolutely no fear of spiders. GOOD FOR YOU!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jamesmccabe1702]

sexist much?

[@AmySorrellMusic]

Succulent care kits have a bottle with a bent straw coming out that you can squeeze water from to fill those water dishes without squirting the spiders. I have one and keep thinking you need one too. Amazing collection you have. Nature is a wonder.

[@humungadunga7733]

Zelda’s movement was almost… unsettling. Like a disguised dance. Loved it.

[@kaehume4742]

Love Zelda's feast dance! Lol happy Thanksgiving Kat :)

[@gn0stica536]

These tarantula feeding videos of yours are very therapeutic :)

[@angelknivess]

3:00 never thought id say this but that spider is adorable and I love her

[@taRATulaz]

i'm soon going to get my first tarantula. i'm starting with the avicularia, i have a tall tarantula cribz-like cage waiting to be used. once i get paid and i do just a bit more research, i'll make the trip to get them 🤩

[@tarantulakat]

Awesome! Good luck :)

[@alexisward22]

Zelda's clip was EPIC!!! She is gorgeous!

[@kassidychapman7003]

Awesome take downs :D!!!, also when she played that music at the end I thought she was leading it up to that Zelda died 😅 but I'm glad she's okay

[@sarahbetsy460]

Wow this was an amazing video, that dance at the end almost seemed like a ritual. Very cool

[@kathystephen]

The soothing music is much appreciated

[@kasieleow3165]

I bought a little terrarium for a terrantula and I couldn't be happier for this! ❤! I love all your videos with your terrantulas! It's why I'm getting one! I couldn't be happier

[@tomthetit2419]

Wow almost something spirtual with Zelda, really beautiful mix of music and spider 🕷

[@charlesseiderman29]

Love your collection! I am proud to say that I discovered Theraphosa apophysis, 1990 in Puerto Ayacucho, Venezuela.

[@Alecsweet3057]

I really enjoyed the last video of Zelda that came out really good. Definitely would like to see more videos of her

[@andrewrichards9513]

You can't beat a good feeding video to watch just before bed 👍. I was wondering do you know why the last tarantula webbed up the gummy just to drag it into her den ? I was expecting her to leave it there or bite it and leave it there. Happy thanks giving from all us tarantula lovers in the UK 🇬🇧

[@prissilou]

I'm not a spider person, but am amazed with the way you deal with your 'pets'. Wanted to pass along a story my uncle told me that would have happened in the 1950's or1960's. Anyway, he was in the grocery store and reached into a box of bananas and a tarantula jumped out onto his arm and bit him. He was ok afterward, said the wound drained for a little bit afterward, but he went on to survive the experience ok, but did have a little scar on his arm where the 2 fangs had penetrated his skin.

[@HendrickFan5]

I still love how some of your tarantulas pounce on the worms, while others stare at them like, "uh...mom, what the poop is in front of me?"

[@Muddragon104]

Zelda was my favorite to watch she gave such a wonderful preparation to her meal. It was almost like she was thanking Kate for the worm. I've never see one do that before. An now feel a little less scared of them. An feel a lot more thankful for the important role they play.

[@HC-ye4zm]

Loved the mesmerizing part at the end ❤

[@jasonfindley6345]

Those are my favorite worms that you are using to feed. I noticed that there weren't any crazy take downs but still enjoy watching

[@TheBrokengirl101]

me going ew the whole time but still watching why am i addicted

I really like the animal bones in the enclosure!!!! Sooo cool. I’m going for a walk in the woods to look for some lol

I really love the happy dance! So damn cute! 😆 🥰

[@nikkic0509]

Very cool... I love when you feed them gummy worms. They’re all so beautiful.

[@Sterling.theqxyb]

Did anyone else think it was interesting that Zelda did a spinning dance because when you play the game those spiders also spin? That's kind of awesome!

[@dnadesignn]

Those worms are gonna make them full forever 🤣 awesome feeding!

[@tiffanyvoerman]

The music at the end and Zelda dancing over the gummy worm made it feel like some kind of ritualistic sacrifice hahaha 😆

I have a few T's that aren't happy when I try to fill their water dishes too. So I got an extra large syringe and added a 6 inch piece of tubing to the tip. Now I have percussion watering.

Oh man! Those toes and it hit the head! M Balfouri. WOW!! Zelda had the leftovers of another gummy worm and was like "Hmmm this one seems to keep moving" later she figures out "Oh! Hey! There is another one here?!?!?" and then "Oh! There is a new one here! GOTCHA!" lol
