tarantula kat hey so excited to see Rob Tarantulaguy1976 getting back in the action? !! BAM!!!

[@Brandiwilson723]

Found the Sweet Escape. Thank you!!! Love it.

[@gutz323]

Do you put the crickets in the fridge for a little while before feeding them just to slow them down? If I put a cricket in them small enclosures with the lid off, I would have a loose cricket hopping around my room. Crickets are a pain in the arse in my experience. They never stay put. It's OK when you get them in and shut the lid, but I always have to be quick.

The happy dance is the best!! My Grammostola Pulchra Legsi does it too and I always HAVE to dance along.

Watching this as I'm about to feed my 1st tarantula crickets for the 1st time🙃

[@Gasolina25]

[@johnscheidler8842]

Great vid, Love the dancing sling in rhythm too. Now I want a sling or 2 again. Keep up the awesome work.

[@cova6995]

3:37 Overcast is actually fantastic as natural lighting for filming because it evens out all of the lighting. So you weren’t doing anything wrong! 😋

im a big fan of bean weevils for slings.. its very easy to sustain a culture and if its something you can get hold of i would recommend trying them

So cool seeing a lot of the same species I got from Ruth as well.

Your H. pulchripes looks nice but is really bolty. Mine just made an elaborate burrow and runs into it when disturbed. Tho it's still on the small-ish side.

[@InTime-x3j]

I do enjoy watching your videos!!!! Strange pets, when my neighbor was alive I use to help take care of 110 bee hives.

Nice feedings. That G. grossa is interesting.

I forgot to feed my Ts tonight 😂 Thanks for reminding me with this video Kat 😊😂

[@gsinsights6265]

You and the tarantulas so beautiful 😭🤗

[@Heidicabye]

Hey so we have 2 slings/almost juveniles (1 yr old now but no one can seem to tell us if they're juveniles yet) and just a bub sling (6 months old) but we've been told by breeders never to leave crickets in with them and to remove both the back legs of the crix so they cant hurt the ts. Is this right information? We feed them weekly and as it's been more warmer they've been doing great take downs (we live is Australia). The two 1 yr olds are a sp cooktown goliath and a sp Champagne Robustus and the bub is an sp4 yellow. Any info would be so so much appreciated x

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great feeding Video

[@edgufler1122]

Very nice feeding Video.

[@DwarfsExotics]

Cool Video All my spiders are Slings so this is Very Good To Watch 👍

[@markh6545]

Glad to see you have a Pamphobeteus species in your collection...They are quite the addicting group of spiders to own...They are my favorites.

[@tarantulakat]

they are amazing! I have a larger P machalla too and it's pretty feisty

[@kelceystock5944]

Ahh! There was a tarantula in our yard tonight and I told my family 'hey they shoot their hairs off at you or something an I went to Google and find it out exactly an came by your videos(btw have a huge fear/slight interest in spiders, mostly fear though lol) and here I am hours later around 2am still watching/freakin out feeling spiders all over me! Hahah

[@bloodfun2585]

their so cute!

[@jdcass638]

Awesome baby happy-dance.

[@paulvarquez7931]

Nice feed vid! A fan here from philippines! Happy keeping 🤙🏽

[@bensbugz5574]

I don't buy slings due to the fear of getting a male and not a female BUT after watching this video I'm reconsidering giving slings a chance. FYI: Dont get me wrong I enjoy slings but I try to shoot for females.

[@lauraclegg794]

Omg the little mini drumstick 🍗 for teeny Spidey Sling is too cute. I wouldn't of thought if that, it's a good idea. I have jumping Spiders & am watching your videos as part of my research before I get my first Tarantula xx

So glad I saw this video today. I just got a shipment of super tiny slings and was literally online shopping for pin heads. I’d never seen anyone use legs for small t’s but now I don’t need to order any. Keep up the great content.

[@tarantulakat]

it works great! just make sure u remove what's left so it doesn't stink up the place haha

[@executivebexley252]

Slings are my favourite, they're so cute! They can take down some impressive size crickets. My T.Albo sling hides alllll the time, I never see him!

[@hollistrgrl56]

You should make a video of your tarantulas happy dancing and then put music over it. I love it 😂

really nice video I like to see tiny spiders they are so smol and cute 😭😭 but also they can be super feratious hungry little spiderlets are fearless when they pounce their foods one of my most precious little ones moulted overnight its my Homoeomma chilensis i waited for ages to find one for sale and it was the most tiniest little spiderlet Ive ever had and its growing sooo slowly and it spends so long in premoult not eating I keep thinking its going to die on me but Im happy today bcus it moulted 💕

[@YokaiPie]

My boyfriend was having that problem with a birdeater species, a tinyyy little sling. I kept telling him not to worry, they can be in pre-molt for a while, but I know how it feels to worry about them. It's not like they can tell us what's going on lol the stress is real

[@natertater1978]

i dnt care for nything with more legd than me..ur georgeous..only reason i watch ur vids lol jus sayin

[@kaciefraker8399]

Actually thanks for posting this

[@samhaines8228]

so beautiful!! natural light does them justice, for sure. Nice to get acquainted with the young'uns. (9:00) *eh-KLEE-zee-Ass-tick-us* hope that helps, but I get it, some words/names just take a little getting used to, for any number of reasons. Lovely X-mas tree~ So wish they had life-size anatomically correct tarantula lights (with breed accurate colors!) great for any occasion ;)

[@valeriepazsoldan1927]

That dance 😂🤣

[@isaraoyou]

Hey Kat! Love the sling feeding clips 🥰 I wonder if you noticed your last sling you fed got a missing leg? Hope it has recovered now 🙌

[@reportmyusername]

Bruh, that leg looked just liked a chicken leg ahahaha

[@cheekerpot3008]

My little b.hamorii Parker has molted 4 times since I got it as a tiny spooder. To this day I have never seen the actual moment he grabbed his prey.

[@christopherreeves3264]

I'm new to your channel love your videos and your really beautiful

[@rjpets8998]

2:04 omg I can't stop laughing lmao 😂🤣🤣

[@vonicenhernandez7060]

That g.iheringi dance

[@EFergDindrane]

I actually like that they don't always jump on their food. It helps we newer keepers see that it's OK, and we shouldn't panic. I'm trying to mix in some Dubias for the protein, but they just immediately burrow, and I don't know if that means they spider will NEVER eat them, or just... not right now. I usually drop in a second one and just assume I'll remove any the next day if I can find them.

[@thesmashingolives]

OMG the G. Actaeon dancing made my day! I just got one, it's about the same size, about 3 weeks ago. I've offered it food once a week since I've gotten it and it's not taking anything, just sitting in it's hide. Is this a sign it's going to molt?

[@RenegadEfw260]

Cool video I like it was all slings. On your first attempt if familiar with sling nature the cricket was a decent size for a sling not to mention u dropped it right in the ts safe zone out of the blue it startled it it didn’t at all mean it wasn’t hungry what I like to do if the crickets r semi big for being baby crickets or even small adult crickets for bigger slings I pull off their jumping legs so they avoid startling the slings and just crawl around like any normal insect and the slings normally get it with ferocity I’m sure the first sling would of Had a much better attempt if u tried pullin one or both legs off the cricket and setting it forward to walk right toward the t so he feels the vibration ahead of time opposed to not knowing it’s there till it plummets near ur head and into ur little safety hole I also could be wrong it was fat it Could be ready for pre molt or anything but I wouldn’t be so fast to give up on them slings def act like babies when they get startled lol anyways great video I loved the switch up for the feeds!

[@takenbysleep-_-1036]

video idea - Christmas enclosure ? 🙏🏻

So many baby’s. That’s my next video is sling feeding. Never goes well. All mine hide.

would b cool but v limited space here .. i'm sure my husband would love to do a video like that with me someday tho!

Hey Kat. Been watching your videos for a long time now and have only been a T mommy for a little over a week now. Still, a nervous wreck but so in love

[@jeffreygolish3827]

How large were the slings that had some color? It's always great when they no longer look just like the substrate. And some of the takedowns were as good as adults. You have them well trained!

[@tarantulakat]

I don't think any of them were larger than 1.5 maaaaybe 2 in top. thank you!

[@thenightscythe2030]

"Kleel-toh-Cot(l)" The last L is "optional".. Lol

[@Spiderantula]

The first ones I'd call juvies since they got some decent colors and size. What do you do if it doesn't take the cricket when it falls down in the burrow? I only use dubias for slings cause of the risks..

[@anitalangford6975]

My slings are soooo hard to get to eat. I am jealous.
