I've said it before, I'll say it again. This will become a big channel, for keepers at all levels. Absolutely brilliant ❤️

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thank you so much really appreciate your support ❤️

[@ss-leifbarsark7767]

Im not even a keeper, i just enjoy watching the fascinating pairing, eggsack removals,rehousing etc of these beautiful animals,ive allways had an fascination for spiders, collecting wolfspiders in jars feeding them small locust and large flies when i was a kid around 10 years old,my father had a large tarantula in a casing on the wall when i grew up,it wasnt a molt it was än actual tarantula mounted with pins in a class casing,at the same time as they fascinate me they make my skin crawl,the thought of them running up my arm - JESUS CHRIST! But having å couple in bioactive enclosures as you have make me kind of reconsider the whole thing,i love the feeding part(ofcourse) and i love the beautiful setups in your enclosures and how calm your spiders are and i absolutely love your blue T's and the tigred T's..i actually Think Most of them are beautiful around 90% of them are just stunning and the Hogna wolfspiders compared to our Swedish ones are just amazing,they are absolutely HUGE! The Swedish variant is probably a 10th of the size of the Hogna.. Anyways i watch on an average 2-3 of your videos a day so now theres pretty much no more videos for me to watch so im desperatly waiting for you to drop new content.. Your knowledge made me after stumbling over your channel considering getting a freaking tarantula,i never thought that day whould come,ive had several snakes so ive brushed shoulders with Tarantula keepers(my friend actually had a mexican red knee i believed the name was?) But i never thought i whould want one for myself!

"As you can see shes very fast" ... OBT: Slap! Slap! SLAP! 🤬

[@Angrath]

I had a P. Murinus as my first spider when I was a teenager, sold to me as by an irresponsible pet shop owner. Much lighter in colour than these though I believe different species have been marketed differently over the years. Regardless, I perservered and enjoyed many spiders over my years in the hobby. I nick-named her the 'Alien' as she reminded me of a face hugger. She'd literally throw herself at the glass if she felt vibrations of people walking past. In some ways I'm glad I got dropped in at the deep end as my respect for them was immediately pushed to 200%. She lived a very long and happy life and saw off quite a few girlfriends in her time 🤣

[@dawnfinch2836]

Nice story ❤

[@tylerjoslin6373]

I have severe arachnophobia but your videos really help and they show that even spiders/tarantulas that most people are afraid of can be absolutely beautiful!

[@tarantulaark3182]

I still can’t get over how calm you are and how calm your tarantulas are. Besides protecting the babies. You truly are a spider whisper! Beautiful species and congratulations on all the babies. Wonderful job to your wife for all she does. Thanks for sharing.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thanks, I like to try and keep everything calm and not upset them but get the job done as quick as possible so not to stress them out too much.

[@wendywendt4548]

Not to stress the wife or the spider Dave ? 🤣😂 Just kidding , I know you were talking about both ! 😉

It’s amazing how much this is helping me with my arachnophobia. Your calm explanations and genuine interest in them is reminding me that these things aren’t monsters, but animals.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

[@drunkenork5373]

Dave I'm terrified of Spiders, but I've binge watched dozens of your videos as they are absolutely fascinating and give me a much better understanding of my fears and these wonderful creatures.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thats amazing to hear ❤️❤️❤️

[@bradenpolley7025]

This was a great view of how tricky it can be, and how much work it is, to acquire all of the slings that other owners will buy and care for later on. It'll certainly help me to appreciate any slings I acquire in the future.

[@TheFingerman37]

Really good video. I used to breed a lot of Pterinochilus spp., one of my favourites. I used a cut off large (1litre) cola bottle, cap end to move the spiders around, as they naturally run up and funnel into the end, then just unscrew the cap and they can easily move into a new container. When I got the males together with the females, always did that in the bath, gave the male space to scarper from the female tank, I only lost one to a particularly aggressive female. I had loads of different species, then circumstances changed and they all went. Glad to see your partner is a willing participant in your hobby, a gem which is real hard to find.

[@lisahunt9391]

Not a keeper and do not particularly like spiders not sure if it’s the accent or what but I am fascinated by this channel. I do not think I will be a convert as many of them give me chills but I do find some pretty. I love my snakes tho so absolutely respect the effort to care for these guys and babies are fascinating.

[@tyoung521]

Ok, I am and always have been terrified of spiders. But omg I would be lying if I told you those babies weren’t the cutest little things ever ❤️. You very well might be changing my thoughts and fears when’s it comes to spiders. I just found your channel a few days ago and I’m so glad I did because your videos are not only awesome but they are also very informative.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thank you so much and welcome to our channel my friend ❤️👍

[@geroldgrimel4811]

I've always seen spiders as being 'robotic' in their behavior. It's interesting to see them up close, as their behavior becomes recognizably almost 'mammal'. The territorial posturing, the striking, and the retreat below... There's clearly a mind and a heart to this creature.

[@glamdolly30]

My thoughts entirely, what an eye-opener this fab channel is. I think I've been guilty of underestimating spiders until now!

[@juggalox1000]

I love the Orange Bitey Things

[@Hayley0412]

Another amazing video, I think you are the first KZbinr to show OBT’s in a good light! 😃

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thank you they deserve it ❤️❤️❤️👍

[@StoutShako]

Watched this one before, but it came up again in the playlist, and I've just got to marvel at the construction of the younger spider's web. She really seems like she knew exactly what she was doing!

[@vickiezaccardo1711]

I honestly never thought I could say a spider is pretty ( until I saw the cute little jumpers but figured they' d be the only ones) These really have pretty coloring and the leg bands look almost like they reflect light like gold. In my Opinion you are both very brave, lol.

[@RemyMartinVSOP]

I have an OBT just under that size. I like your set up. When I rehouse it I will keep it like yours, as it's more terrestrial at the moment. I liked the fact you showed patience with the removal of the OBT and shown it can be done sensibly. It's given me confidence to do this myself. Great videos as always. Thank you.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Cool, thanks!

Second time watching one of your spider videos. No idea why KZbin puts these on my home page, but I found it fun watching you catch 50+ baby blue spiders while the mom snoozed the other day. I am frightened of most spiders. Baby steps.

Welcome to the channel Ann I hope you enjoy the content ❤❤❤❤👍

[@rebeccalaroche7180]

Dave, I just discovered you on KZbin a few days ago and I’m devouring your videos. I’ve had a few Ts, my first, a Chilean Rosehair, was my success story. She lived 17 years. I’ve had a few failures but love tarantulas and I’m ready, in large part thanks to your presence, to get back in the T game. You mentioned a Facebook group at the end of this video. Please text me the name of it as I cannot find it. Also, you are my very first KZbin subscription! Well done from a middle-aged nurse living near Detroit, Michigan, USA! Keep up the fabulous work!

I am addicted to this channel! I find it to be very calming and soothing to watch Dave and his lovely camera lady providing us with great content. These two are great ambassadors for the hobby of tarantula keeping and hope they become a big channel in the not too distant future. I don't personally keep tarantulas (I have a little dart frog collection), but I find them to be so fascinating and beautiful to look at and I can definitely understand the appeal that they have to hobbyists. Anyways, another great video as always Dave and camera lady!

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Thank you my friend I too used to keep Dart frogs and have been thinking of getting some more 👍

[@TeeDod]

Amazing video. Forgive me for commenting on such an old video but watching you with your patience and gentleness is fantastic! You have given me even a greater interest in spiders! I know it isn’t the response you want from a spider but I love to hear their little legs on the plastic of the containers. When you put it close then those legs reach out and slam into the plastic. I love watching you so much! Thank you for all you do and sharing with us!

[@daveslittlebeasties]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@derricklogan2058]

You're absolutely right, all spiders aren't the same in temperament even if they are the same kind of Tarantulas. I had 6 Chilean Rose Tarantulas and only 3 of them would allow me to handle them while the last 3 that I purchased showed more aggression in their behavior towards me! 😮 It was strange, but I took care not 🚫 to get bit by them! Tarantulas are so beautiful! I never see any Spider 🕷️ as dull in color. Their just different colors and each are gorgeous! I say that because I have heard many people say that some Tarantulas look so good 👍 while others don't! It's sad when people 🤔 think like that! Great video 📸 once again! I had 1 of those of the 7 Baboon Spiders that I had. The King Baboon Spider 🕷️ was my favorite though! Never picked her up, but she always seemed to "know" me, especially when it was feeding time and to provide fresh 🌊 water. Didn't get much aggression from such a big girl!

[@mikejessmax]

Yeah they're all different. I had a 1.5" Chaco golden knee (apparently one of the most docile new worlds) throw up a threat posture at me when I was removing it from it's shipping container into its enclosure.

I stumbled on this video - God knows how 'cos I'm a hysterical arachnophobe. But your enthusiasm and the calm, assured way you handle your spiders totally won me over. I have to say I'm very impressed with you as a KZbin personality, and amazed that I've had my eyes opened to spiders in a way I didn't think possible. Spider mums love their babies - they must do, to defend them like that from intruders. That's very touching, and makes them a sophisticated creature, capable of emotions. And I can actually see the beauty in them. The colours, and their furriness is pretty adorable. I can't believe I'm talking about spiders with affection! That is quite an achievement by this channel. May I ask - will the two mamas look for their missing babies, and miss them? What will you do with those 300-odd spiderlings? And finally - did these girls eat their baby daddy after he'd done the business and impregnated them?! You deserve every success with a channel as unique, fascinating and well-presented as this one, and I wish you both every success in 2022.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Welcome to our channel Glamdolly30 we really appreciate your support, the females forget about the egg sacks /slings very quickly and feed and drink almost at the first opportunity, as for all the spiderlings they all go back into the hobby , and with the OBT its often 50/50 chance for the males .❤👍

Im honoured my friend really pleased you enjoyed it theres plenty more 😂😂😂👍

[@techchart7]

Excellent stuff Dave, very informative. Even more than the cricket box, I'd advise one of the smaller (one person) size plastic Coke bottles with bottom chopped off so you're holding the bottle cap end as a better drop over the T to extract here (need a suitable size deli cup to then fit snug in the chopped end once T is inside). I have several size bottles cropped depending on size of the spider. When ready, pop the deli cup and unscrew bottle lid and you put paint brush through bottle lid opening to gently persuade T back out into enclosure.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

I have seen these being used, I personally dont like round catch cups as most things run to the corners where a round catch cup does not work so well 👍
