You are absolutely right. I feed mine once a week. Not all of them eat but I always fill or replace their water dish and just check on them. It literally takes me about three and a half hours and I have 84 T's.

I loved this-it was the most honest rehousing I’ve ever seen on TH-cam! Sometimes it just goes like that, I’ve definitely had a few that took a few minutes off my life! I use a pop up butterfly net now for all my rehousings, I can’t recommend them enough! I got in the habit of using them when rehousing my huntsman spiders, and now use them with everyone. They’re lifesavers! When they’re in the mood to teleport around in circles, sometimes I just have to zip it up, step back, and take a breath, so we can both calm down. Eventually the bolty spider finds a spot in a corner to hunker down, and I can go in & cup them. I use it whether I think it’s necessary or not lol-some tarantulas can surprise me. Saved me the other day when my black widow decided to take off while I was rehousing her, which I was NOT expecting. I’ve NEVER seen her run. She’s normally my easy one! Thank God for the net, I just zipped it shut and waited until she stopped moving.
Ahhh, yes, that is such a great idea, especially for the fast ones! Thank you I'll consider getting one of those, especially for my huntsman spider, she super fast😳🥴 but I would like to clean out her enclosure and freshen it up in a few months so I'll have to take her out. Thank you for the tip😇🥰 also. Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🖤
This was a great video Jen , you are very talented stayed calm and got the job done, love the enclosures they look awesome and natural really enjoying your content keep up the great work ❤
So loved this and how you kept your cool, especially for the last one. Amazingly and Beautifully Done my Amazing and Talented Friend ♥️👍✅🤗🕷️🕸️🕷️🤗✅👍♥️What a Great Rehousing....😊
Thank you!! The most important part is keeping your cool, so you develop a strategy and get the rehouse done🥰 plus I've had Louie for a long time and as scary as she may seem, she is shy and harmless❤️🔥 thank you so much for watching, friend! I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
@@Jennspeculiarexotics You are So welcome. I love how you tend to your Tarantulas and even when you were kind of scared, you still paid Closer attention. That makes for a Wonderful Tarantula keeper. Hope you have an Amazing day today ♥️🤗👑🕷️🕸️🕷️👑🤗♥️
One of the best rehousing videos I've ever seen 😊and I've seen a lot 😂you are amazing and these husky eyes are not from this planet 😂thx for this video ❤
That was intense 😂 It felt so relatable with both the irminia and the pokie. Definitely had some interesting rehouses for pokies in the past, and with irminias running all over like crazy😅 Great video, though 😊 That was awesome to watch ❤
Very intense! Lmao, but I think the ladies are definitely enjoying their new enclosures. Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership 😇🥰
Thank you, I'm glad you found them useful! Yes, definitely always wait for them to stop. Especially if you are new to rehousing these guys, it can be hard to anticipate what they're going to do so if they are going to run, let them and then catch them❤️ Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
You and I talked about recently with rehousing Yukon, my N. Incei gold, I use one of those Large storage containers to put both of the houses in so if they try to bolt, it's a little more contained and hopefully they just run around the bottom if the get crazy. I say this now, while I have to rehouse my H. Gabonensis soon as well. Granted both of my spoods are dwarf's and still considered slings but fast little buggers. Great video
Yes, Yukon🥰 that's great you use those tools! My closet is small and confined, so it is hard for me to put a whole tub in there, but I've had the spiders get loose in the closet and they usually don't go very far, that's the nice thing about keeping them in a confined space! They are fast, very fast, haha! Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Great video! Love the species and I can't imagine how frustrating and scary it must be when they don't go where you want them to. I had 2 tarantulas when I was a teenager growing up and I'm thinking about getting back into the hobby. Keep up the great work!
Smashed it Jenn. The Pokie just wanted a little wander about and Helena wasn't really defensive she wanted you to give her a hug. No joking aside well done that was a heart stopping moment with Louie and could've gone very wrong,well recovered. Again looking forward to your next video.
Thank you so much! I had a gun time making the video and rehousing my tarantulas😇 yes, they were just being silly spiders! And thank you, I was nervous but I got it done💪 Thank you so much for watching my videos, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Thanks to Tom Moran I always use a large tote everytime. I don't ever change it. You never know when one is gonna run. The last time I fed my Caribena versicolor Lucy, she got out three times and landed on my bed. I swear she knows when that door is gonna open.
I had a good giggle listening to my commentary as well😂 I'm glad I could make you laugh and smile! Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
For the second rehousing, when she attacked your brush, it was awesome. I can’t rewinding it because if you look at it closely, she holds on to the web and she swings
She definitely was going to bite the brush😂 I just don't like it when they might run up the brush and onto me😅 Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
First time I've seen you and enjoyed the video 😁 As a Tarantula keeper in England, I enjoyed your video so have subscribed. Keep up the good work , you're doing great ! Jay
@@Jennspeculiarexotics it’s my pleasure, I love my T’s but don’t have what’s needed to make videos like you 🖤 I’m currently in tarantula dad mode as my Thrixopela Cyaneolum is currently moulting
Great video, Jenn!! Useful tips at the beginning (specially the first one) and you also handled pretty well the last rehouse. It was really fun to watch! I'm sure all three of them will enjoy their new enclosures :)
Love this video😂 after what happened rehousing my H Maculata recently (almost squished her and lost her in the process) and feeling like a noob it's nice to see other rehouses not go so well either 😂
@ If it wasn't for almost accidentally squishing her things would have probs gone better but my stress levels were through the roof after thinking I'd made her go splat😅 thankfully she's safe and well
Good!! I'm glad you enjoyed the video as I will have more rehousings soon because more of my children need upgrades. They are growing so fast! Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Well well what can I say. I understand the attitude from the Irminia because they are devils but to get a threat pose from a seemanni is super sweet and quite rare. It’s weird but I’ve never seen a threat pose from a pokie, and they are a shy genus which just wants to hide away. Big respect to you. It was an awesome video and mucho entertaining xx
Thank you so much for watching!😇 I was quite surprised my seemani threat posed me too, but like I say, it can always happen! I have had my Poecilotheria threatpose me once, but she was inside her enclosure, and I think I was messing with the water dish, and she was next to it. They are very shy too, and so are the sun Tigers, I think Khaleesi was mad because I took everything out and left her exposed. I liked rehousing this mix of tarantulas for you guys. It does show the differences in the spiders' personalities, and it shows that even if they are mad, they aren't going to chase you or something crazy like that. I appreciate you so much for watching and commenting on my videos, I really appreciate your viewership 😇🥰
Had the most chaotic rehousing recently. My one and only old world (C.marshalli) decided it was a good idea to run up the brush....every time I touched them. Never had any of the other spiders do that before and never really understood just how fast old worlds could be. I definitely have a whole new respect for old worlds...and will most likely not be adding anymore to my collection any time soon LMAO
Thank you so much for watching!! I have a Ceratogyrus darlingi named Oscar, and he is horrible to rehouse. He, too, has run up my brush and gone running in my closet😂 they are definitely the ones you poke, and they go running, lmao. But don't let that keep you from keeping the old worlds. They are fun, and some are more chill than others, but I totally understand where you are coming from! Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Love the unlove animals, anyways i want to see other animals too like isopods or geckos or maybe a centipede, attitude of your irminia and pokies are very damn aggressive, thats why i love the most of my tarantula being aggressive when rehousing and feeding, good to see you again jen how are you and your family?, thats what i'm talking about your making progress everytime keep it up. Guys lets help her reach her very first 1k subs.
For sure! I can get some footage of my geckos eating and my pacman Frog xena, too. I also have footage of my scorpion that I will be posting in a video soon! Yes, they can be pretty defensive at times, but only when I'm rehousing them, really. Other than that, it's mostly my old worlds flipping me off🤣 the family is great, thank you for asking! Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Calm n slow! Don’t poke at the spider, put brush on back end and keep it in contact and gently push it the direction you want her to go without losing contact, it’ll go much better. You’re a great keeper and it shows you love your animals. I’m only trying to give pointers so hope I don’t come across as being rude. Bless you
I'm not sure who brought it up but I was told that if I had to deal with a fast spider to do the rehousing in the bathtub and that's what I did with my C darlingi, one lap around the inside later I got them into a catch cup and into to their new enclosure. I doubt I'll add more old worlds to my collection, maybe a few more golden blue leg baboons but other than that I'd likely pass up the opportunity.
The bathtub works great! Especially for that reason. I have a golden blue leg baboon and she's pretty spicy😂 but she's never done anything bad, but she'll slap at me for touching her water dish😅 thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
It’s funny to watch that I have like 26 tarantulas I’ve had some already for like a year and I have a lot of rehousing to do because I got them when they were at least 1/2 and 1/3 all of them now they’re all getting huge and rehome and so much you can see my videos I wanted to post them, but I gotta learn how to edit
I usually put BOTH enclosures in a big bin. Like the biggest sterilite bin you can find. Just rehoused a sling GBB like this and it was anything but boring
I had to think about this for a few days so I wouldn't offend anyone. Your discussion of the warnings before the rehouse were spot on - definitely not a T to be messed around with. That being said, a pokie should not be housed in a front only opening enclosure. Top is better or front and top gives you much safer options. Both containers in a large tote of some sort is a good practice to perform. Did you notice the position of the T when you were attempting to remove the cork bark? Facing directly towards you. I don't know if you've ever seen one of these bolt but it could have been down the bark, up your tongs and onto your arm in the blink of an eye. Use a long brush with the brush end to move them gently and avoid poking them. And please do not handle pieces of bark or anything else with a potentially dangerous arachnid on it. The comment about being a professional could possibly get you into trouble in future rehousings or give newcomers into the hobby a false sense of security when dealing with these Ts. All in all, good video, remember yours and the spiders safety are top priority. Mike
I rehoused my Aphonapelma seemani because her hide was too small, and with the shortness of the old enclosure, I wasn't able to add nearly as much substrate as I didn't in the new enclosure. She's much happier in the bigger enclosure. And I am able to access her water dish without her getting defensive about it. I like my spiders to have lots of room even if they don't use it all the time. And yeah, there terrestrial. I just preferred she had a bit more room to do whatever she wanted. She has been in her new hide a lot and seems to be much more comfortable now. I hope this helps! Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewship!
Yes, I did!😭😭😭 I think it came from Helenas enclosure and was floating around in the air. It got in the lower lid of my eye, and I could feel it for two days straight 😩 I need some goggles or something! Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
Again I think their enclosures were perfect for their size, you don’t wanna rehouse just for sake of rehousing, spiders like tight spaces. Especially with medically significant. Venom spiders you want to avoid any unnecessary rehousing. Your confidence will grow, but if you’re scared that’s the wrong way to approach rehousing. Try to watch as many rehousing as you can, Tom’s big spiders , Dave’s little beasties etc
I'm not scared to rehouse my spiders. Being nervous is normal, but I'm not so scared I can't get the job done. My two arboreal have been in those enclosures for months, and they have grown a lot since then. If I think or feel it's necessary to rehouse my spiders. I will. Either my enclosures are too small or too big. Can't make everyone happy.
I usually put BOTH enclosures in a big bin. Like the biggest sterilite bin you can find. Just rehoused a sling GBB similar to this video and it was anything but boring
GBBs are cool! Mine will kick a million hairs at me, though, if I thought her with the paint brush, and that sucks!😅 Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
You are absolutely right. I feed mine once a week. Not all of them eat but I always fill or replace their water dish and just check on them. It literally takes me about three and a half hours and I have 84 T's.

I'm not sure who brought it up but I was told that if I had to deal with a fast spider to do the rehousing in the bathtub and that's what I did with my C darlingi, one lap around the inside later I got them into a catch cup and into to their new enclosure. I doubt I'll add more old worlds to my collection, maybe a few more golden blue leg baboons but other than that I'd likely pass up the opportunity.

For someone that scared, you really touched the cork bark a lot with your hands
I like to think that I am brave! Although scared, I still proceed!!!
It’s really crazy how the spiders that people say their defensive and they’re fast and mean did the easiest ones to rehouse
All spiders are individually different from one another. Some are chill, and some will fight you hahah

An example of what not to do when rehousing a pokie
Okay, What would you do differently then, Mike?
I had to think about this for a few days so I wouldn't offend anyone. Your discussion of the warnings before the rehouse were spot on - definitely not a T to be messed around with.

Just wondering why you are rehousing the first one, it seems perfect?
I don’t think alphonopelma need height, they are terrestrial correct?
I rehoused my Aphonapelma seemani because her hide was too small, and with the shortness of the old enclosure, I wasn't able to add nearly as much substrate as I didn't in the new enclosure. She's much happier in the bigger enclosure. And I am able to access her water dish without her getting defensive about it.

She has been in her new hide a lot and seems to be much more comfortable now. I hope this helps!

Did you say you got an urticating hair in your eye? Are you okay?
Yes, I did!😭😭😭 I think it came from Helenas enclosure and was floating around in the air. It got in the lower lid of my eye, and I could feel it for two days straight 😩 I need some goggles or something! Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
How did you get the hair out? 😢
Again I think their enclosures were perfect for their size, you don’t wanna rehouse just for sake of rehousing, spiders like tight spaces. Especially with medically significant. Venom spiders you want to avoid any unnecessary rehousing. Your confidence will grow, but if you’re scared that’s the wrong way to approach rehousing. Try to watch as many rehousing as you can, Tom’s big spiders , Dave’s little beasties etc
I'm not scared to rehouse my spiders. Being nervous is normal, but I'm not so scared I can't get the job done. My two arboreal have been in those enclosures for months, and they have grown a lot since then. If I think or feel it's necessary to rehouse my spiders. I will. Either my enclosures are too small or too big. Can't make everyone happy.
I usually put BOTH enclosures in a big bin. Like the biggest sterilite bin you can find. Just rehoused a sling GBB similar to this video and it was anything but boring
GBBs are cool! Mine will kick a million hairs at me, though, if I thought her with the paint brush, and that sucks!😅 Thank you so much for watching, I appreciate your viewership😇🥰
You making me laugh. I heard you fall when I almost ran up. That’s why you don’t do it on the floor.
I was sitting on the floor, but I almost threw myself through the closet door to get away🤣🤣🤣
I need a cigarette after watching this 🫣
That is totally normal😅🫶😇🖤 Thank you so much for watching, I greatly appreciate your viewership💕
I think your catch cup is too big....
I definitely needed a smaller one lmao😅😂
