UNBOXING a tarantula I've been MISSING

[@mikaylak2507]

hearing about your daughters love for isopods made me smile sm!!! i swear that parents who teach their kids to love animals always end up having the best kids!! :)))

[@hdmm9136]

Yes! I find kids raised with pets and exposure to nature are very good kids. Down to earth and compassionate. Makes a world of a difference

[@mikaylak2507]

@@hdmm9136 fully agree!! kids being able to appreciate and care for the world around them makes them such better kids imo

[@Ashley-ke2xp]

Your reaction to my clay jumping spider made my day 😂💕 I’m so happy you love it!

[@Dusty_Tarantula]

I need to get another one of these!!! My female was always out once she hit 7 inches. Now that there are bigger, nicer, display enclosures I really want to get another. They grow so fast! Not T albo speed but close. I lost mine due to it prying the lid open on a critter keeper. I thought I had it shut all the way.... Lesson learned. If I get another one it will be in Tarantula Crib enclosures once it hits the 3 inch mark.

[@sarahhastings1486]

The name for the jumping spider should be Saltar ! (That is Spanish for jumping) but it also sounds really cool

[@albatirechegarcia76]

Hi! Are you Spanish? Because i am and i want to share my love for tarantulas in spanish

@@albatirechegarcia76 I am not Spanish but I do enjoy learning words in other languages when I can!

[@katherine1304]

saltar literally means “to jump” saltando would be jumping but that’d be like a weird conjugation for a name haha unless you’re down for that

[@goddamnilovemetal8120]

I love when they splay out their back legs to spike you. They're so cool. Definitely need to add one to my collection

[@EJChevy]

That facial expression from the lightning strike was too funny...

[@johnbrazell2433]

I've raised 2 from slings and they are fast growers, shy but high strung. And both of mine stayed in their borrows 95% of the time. Even as adults. They are beautiful though when you actually get to see them.

[@tinchytarantula]

I havent go a massive collection like most but i really love this community we can share info and advice and help each other which makes the tarantula community so great were all different and unique which is why i really love the tarantula community

[@sleepyninjagirl93]

You made Ashley super happy. She was super glad you like it. Pretty sure she happy cried. ^-^ I knew her in high school and saw her post about it on Facebook.

[@samhaines8228]

love your energy in this vid Kat, and that is some crazy spooder you just housed...very distinctive way of moving, those jangly legs, gorgeous coloration & markings. Sweet!

[@ronsaddler993]

this whole channel is addictive. i cant stop

[@jessicamiller4367]

I have 3 jumping floofs since watching your channel ❤️ Brutus, Matilda and Mossimo ❤️

[@stitchinstella2425]

So glad you like the stickers! I'm working on a Velvet spider and Scorpion design now and I'm gonna be getting my 2nd tarantula hopefully soon!

[@Avagirl14]

I thought of you the other day Kat. Went out to my sunroom to water my plants and saw some movement and looked up. There was a healthy sized jumping spider mostly black with really bright yellow markings an fangs near the ceiling. I took some pictures but have no idea how to show you. But instantly thought of you. I left it alone but simply request it didnt jump on my head! Thankfully it didnt lol.

[@dorabrooks76]

"Cartwheel of death"; I will _always_ laugh at the name. Who saw the defensive leg-kick move you spoke of and thought to call it that? It's so funny to me! 🤣😆

[@pistolpete179]

Don’t comment often but had to pop in to say your energy in this vid is amazing. All your vids are awesome and I love what you bring to the hobby but you seem super hype here and it’s very nice to see. Happy you’re doing good : )

[@aphiliarachno]

What a wheather. Nice you got a robustum again. Good luck with it. I like the isopod you were sent, guess your daughter is going to love it.

[@jesshinckley7353]

My 1st T was a M. robustum... I've had Sofia for almost 3 years ... and she is a pet dirt mount LoL ... she is always in her burrow ... I had to turn her enclosure around so I could see her LoL ...

[@leylazamora175]

Your springtails might need a little more water and brewer"s yeast(food). Love the isopod for Fiona!

[@LuckyStone888]

Awesome video, loved the whole thing. I was going to troll you and say Clickbait titles "I overwatered my plant like I overwatered my Megaphobema robustum" but that would be mean, I'm glad I didn't do that. I'm glad people read my comments. I can contribute to the channel and feel included.

[@AdariiRose]

You could Name the jumping spider blueberry!! But I know what ever make you pick will be the cutest

[@rachellehenson5568]

Love Robustums. I have a small juvie. They are beautiful. They definitely have weird movements. I haven’t ever seen the “cartwheel of death” that they do when are upset. I’m sorry that your other one passed away. 💜

[@Startafnwar]

Your channel is helping slowly overcome my fear of spiders and I'm becoming more fascinated by them. So thanks. Plus I live across the river from you in Belleville IL. So greetings fellow Midwesterner. Cheers!

[@Paramite84]

My M. robustum didn't burrow at all. She mostly stayed in her hide, but I could still see her every day.

[@Boasandpythons]

Fang hub is incredible! Bought my first T from them. A sling GBB. Arrived in phenomenal shape!

[@Atomicqueen9]

I just got my first tarantulas yesterday!! I'm literally so excited to get more already! 😅 Anyways I got a pumpkin patch and Mexican red knee sling and I'm obsessed.🧡🖤 There so much smaller then my jumping spiders.

[@Evavassilieva]

Yay! Sooooo happy when I receive the notification of your videos! You are my fav youtuber and this new T is awesome! Thanks Kat for being so cute and super cool at the same time 💘💘💘

[@Keigancarah]

these are one of my fav species too! i love their colors so much.

[@noonars1]

We call those pill bugs a type of woodlice

[@MOONOVERMIAMI]

Hello great video unboxing and rehousing Kat

[@Baggytrousers27]

From whence does one acquire a toy isopod/Roly Poly/slater/woodlouse/etc?

[@Craftypillar]

such a cute enclosure! I really hope yours doesn't dig it up! But mine completely rearranges their enclosure every time I even slightly bump a piece of dirt out of place. My girl, Lav, had a floating island of dirt above her with almost no supports for the longest time, it was very impressive.

[@Meganlonadon]

M. robustums are among my favorite tarantulas. They're such cool weirdo spiders 💕

[@billstokesbary6143]

My Megaphobema robustum has grown from a half inch to about 4 inches and is finally always sitting at the entrance to her burrow, she of course darts for the burrow if I touch the enclosure but at least I can now see if shes okay

[@barbhelle5481]

Thanks Kat.

[@tiffanystokes5509]

Hi Kat! Im severely arachnophobic but I like watching and learning about tarantulas and jumping spiders . Any other spiders forget it Lmao! But anyway I also watch "Daves little beasties" here on you tube and he breeds his spiders on a regular basis and sells them as soon as they become slings. He's got a pretty good variety. Just another source for when or if u decide u want another spider.

[@kody_dryden-conway]

Somebody has probably already mentioned this but spiders do not get dizzy because they don’t have liquid for balancing in their ears like people do

[@Tijereño]

Hey Kat, love your video, Idk if you’ve seen Tom Moran’s vids on P. muticus, but he experienced something similar to your previous M. robustum where they would dig all the way down and then not come up to eat and slowly wither away. He theorized that maybe since they burrowed so much that they kind of just relied on any insects that happened to be underground instead of coming up to hunt like most T’s. Not sure if the same applies but worth checking out! ❤️

[@sianieb114]

Such a pretty tarantula, I do love your unboxing videos

[@bonniehawkins2979]

Ik right it's horrible but at least it was discovered and they can have some sort of closure. It's disgusting how things were in the past. I'm just hoping tomorrow will be better for us all. May Odin watch out for their souls.
