Heck, the camera lady has nerves of steel, getting in close. Respect. I liked the spider with the hairy legs. (now theres a statement I'd never thought I'd say.)
Congrats, love your channel. You explain everything in a calm way, truly the ‘David Attenborough’ of the spider community. And also a big thanks to the camera Lady. Never visible but always there.
I love how you look like a kid on Christmas when you found the surprise slings and to see your excitement. 😊 such beauties 😍 "good luck" 🤣🤣 wow was she feisty! The slings are so adorable. Its always a great day in my house when slings arrive ☺️ Way to go Steve
The T. blondii has been a goal since I was a kid 40 years ago. It will be interesting to watch this develop as I am thinking about biting the bullet and trying them out. Soooo big and beautiful!
You're excitement is infectious. How did Mrs Camera lady stay steady when the BHT suddenly sprang out? That was the first ever jump scare I've had and I'm a regular to the Dark Den and yourself after first finding Exotic Lair and T collective. Well handled regarding the ridiculous comments on Petko's channel. You'd make a phenomenal teacher. The way that you both handle (or don't for that matter), your spiders and T's regardless of species, or monetary value is exemplary. Your husbandry second to none. I find it very intriguing that im addicted to both your channels. As an arachnophobe? It fascinates me how many of us there are, that watch these videos. Thank you very much for well documented, presented, clear and educational videos. Tarantula Kat said herself, that you appeared to have come out of nowhere, but your content was excellent. I would like to add that over 40 yrs experience isn.t coming out of nowhere lol. I know what she meant though. Many blessings and I look forward to seeing the follow up vids' as I've just seen this is 3 yrs ol. Hopefully she's alive and well. If so she must be bloody huge now? All the best xxxx
Stunning additions Dave and that theraphosa is awesome. You want to know what kind of baboon that little one was, well I would say a cranky baboon lol.
Congrats Dave on the new additions. I was a bit like u was not even interested in getting a t blondi after some time I decided to get one although mine is only a sling.i also do have a adult female c marshalli gorgeous ts.
@@daveslittlebeasties just being honest plus you're very informative and thanks to you I've mostly gotten over my arachnophobia (watched probably half of your videos by this point). I'm thinking about getting one myself, but for now I'm going to look at ones best for a beginner before jumping in (seems the desert/Arizona Blonde and curly seem best so far). If you have any other ideas on what's best that'd be great 👍
Great! I am like you, they have never been my favourite speicies, but they are gorgeous. I had one years ago, but its hair was so terrible for me that i had to sell it
@@daveslittlebeasties she's 13cm leg span,will a 30x30x30 be ok for now? I was worried a bit about the humidity requirements but I think I have them in hand. Your rehouse will be great mate!! All your enclosures are amazing! You must dedicate so much time to the beastie room!?
@@pjsmith2744 I almost live in there only allowed out to do the house work 😂😂😂😂, I should think your enclosure will be fine short term just try it and see how she settles in , it will need upgrading soon enough anyway so let her grow some before you change .👍
@@daveslittlebeasties Haha! really though mate it shows, the beastie room looks spotless!! I actually have her adult enclosure but thought it might swamp her at the moment. Thanks for the advice mate keep up the good work!!!
Hi Dave So nice to see you excited about that Blondi, she is big, and beautiful. I hope that you find the other spiders calm and settled in. I would like to know what type is the mystery baboon. 🕷️🕸️Cindy
@@katyann4198 They are so addictive. My third T was a T. stirmi and my 100th was a boyfriend for her as a bit of a celebration! Yet to get a blondi but I have 4 T. apopysis as of now
I feel ya I have a chilean rose, pink salmon bird eater, white striped bird eater, Brazilian red knee, obt, king baboon, Togo star burst, green bottle blue and an Indian ornamental really want a goliath and a p. Metallica but the Mrs has put me on a ban for now lol
I’m a new subscriber of Dave’s channel and I gotta say I’m thoroughly impressed more and more every show I watch. I would have freaked out like a 3 yr old girl if that horned baboon did that to me. I seriously probably either hurt her myself or got bitten bc I would have thrown myself back so fast out of fear 😎This guys good!
Hello from Las Vegas! The Unknown baboons looks like a Harpactira Pulchripes (Golden Blue Leg Baboon Tarantula). Really love your channel, #daveslittlebeasties!
only just found your vids a couple of days ago so having a bit of a binge, I had Ts for a while but needed the room I kept them locked in and I couldn't find a suitable lockable cabinet to keep them in in time so I rehomed as I have a 10 year old autistic son lol but do miss them and the thrill of unboxing a new one
I bought a T.blondi once. She moltet while being delivered. ANd ofc it went bad. 2 of her legs didn't come out. So she had 6 legs. And grew little once the next molt. She died after the following molt. Years later i read they don't like higher temperatures. 24°C should be the max. My room reaches 30 regulary in summer month.
hey dave :) i finally managed to grab one of these as a juvie and has just gone through its first molt under my care. absolutely amazing species and found it pretty cheap for one of these.
Dave could you tell me where is the best place to get and buy a Blonde and also a Brazilian Black I'm fascinated by them and I'm thinking of starting out and getting 1 of each and buying my homes for them as well...any help or information would be greatly appreciated and thank you for your great Videos....you've brought us all so much brilliant stuff
I jumped and screamed so loud when the horned baboon like literally jumped and then flew right at you! Thank goodness he missed and landed on the other side of it's enclosure! I love your videos but im still very afraid of them Lol
Hey! What was the unknown baboon? A grey Pterinochylus Murinus? It seems to be golden over some legs, but otherwise it looked like the OBT... Thanks for your work!
@@daveslittlebeasties Thanks for the quick answers! I admire your experience and knowledge about every species you have! Is there a certain source you would prefer? Oh, and could you maybe show or explain more to the OBT? I just found two or three clips from you about mating and husbandry of adult spiders!? (I just watched the clip; "Rehousing our Red Slate Ornamental, P rufilata" from the Fifth of October 2020! A wonderful clip, with the different stages your spider gets or takes! Something like this about the OBT, but just if it's in time and ok with you!) Greetings from Switzerland! Manuel
Great video. In fact Theraphosa is one of my favourite genus. Bred blondi years ago and tyring now to succeed with this in stirmi. Also rearing some apophysis at the moment. On my channel there are also a few english spoken videos and a field documentary we shot in the 90s when travelling to French Guyana, searching for blondi. Maybe you would like to take a closer look:)
Watching these videos has made me really eager to get my second Tarantula in January, great stuff. Not sure I'd welcome surprise spiders though haha Obviously you're well equipped for it though
I watch your videos from months ago bit by bit. Great video to see. I know that generally speaking, handling of the goliaths is usually discouraged due to their hair and their fangs/bite but do you handle any of your Theraphosa species at any particular time? Or is it something you try to avoid at all costs
This has to be one of the most professional and knowledgeable arthropod channels on youtube. Absolutely wonderful. Top marks my friend!
Thank you so much ❤️👍
nice surprise with the extras, but blondie looks a beauty
Yes im very pleased with all of them some great additions 👍
This is by far my favorite invert channel. Your personality and pace are soothing.
Your very kind my friend 👍
I absolutely agree ☺️
Heck, the camera lady has nerves of steel, getting in close. Respect. I liked the spider with the hairy legs. (now theres a statement I'd never thought I'd say.)
Absolutely belting spiders Dave made me smile when the Marshalli jumped out lol
She is one very feisty girl, she actually attacks through the plastic sides to have a go at you , will need to keep an eye on her and my fingers😂👍
@@daveslittlebeasties my Cambridgii is a bit like that, I'm sure she'd bite my face off if I got too close 🤣😂
I love your excitement in seeing these
Its amazing how well behaved these beasties are in the beastie room!
We won't tolerate bad behaviour 😂😂😂three strikes and there out 😂😂😂👍
Omg cant belive iv only just found your channel. Love it
Thanks Jennifer and welcome to the channel hope you enjoy and feel free to comment 👍

Cheers mate its going to be an exciting journey
Great video dave an absolute stunning looking Ts 🕷❤
Thanks Dave for more wonderful spiders
Congrats, love your channel. You explain everything in a calm way, truly the ‘David Attenborough’ of the spider community. And also a big thanks to the camera Lady. Never visible but always there.

A beautiful, feisty girl! The four little ones were adorable. They will be lovely when they mature.

Your joy is infectious.

Yes but really looking forward to housing them properly nothing ever comes at the right time 😂😂 we have to improvise 😂👍
Another great video Dave Thanks.
The Theraphosa genus...giant goddesses! Our absolutely favorite species ♥️
I totally agree this is going to be a cool project 👍
The T. blondii has been a goal since I was a kid 40 years ago. It will be interesting to watch this develop as I am thinking about biting the bullet and trying them out. Soooo big and beautiful!
They know they're set Dave, as soon as they get inside the box you made and their homes they know what life they'll have❤️

Congrats Dave on the new additions.
I was a bit like u was not even interested in getting a t blondi after some time I decided to get one although mine is only a sling.i also do have a adult female c marshalli gorgeous ts.
Yes they never really interested me although I had one years ago , some of it is the adults always look so rough and I hate bold bums on my Ts.😂😂😂
Great spider system and animals.
Hey Thanks for Movie .😍
I have a young blondi Woman.
thanks buddy cant wait to breed the Blondi
So lucky with all the big sling freebies. Everytime i get a freebie its like a 1/4” lol
Yes I was very fortunate 👍
That was a fab load of Ts and what a beautiful stermi
Yes it is gorgeous can't wait for it to grow
For someone that has trouble sleeping all night, I love these early uploads!
Glad your enjoying the content and thanks for your support.
You have serenely changed to loving them !! 🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎

Great! I am like you, they have never been my favourite speicies, but they are gorgeous. I had one years ago, but its hair was so terrible for me that i had to sell it
Im very susceptible to the hairs which is why I dont keep any new worlds, but im hoping with gentle handling I can avoid the hair kicking .
I've just ordered my first T.blondi!! I can't wait!! Your vids are an inspiration mate.
Thank you mate , im sure you will love it when it comes I have a rehouse planned for my girl into a bio-active setup.👍

The blondie looks so awesome
Cant wait to move her over to a full bio-active enclosure.👍

I just keep an eye on Facebook and any of the main dealers 👍
That was a nice group of spiders.
Wow! You are very lucky!
Great video loved it
Thank you
That was fun thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
The unknow baboon is a Augacephalus junodi or ezendami, i think A. ezendami :-)
possibly
Perfect :) i waiting on my t.blondi :)))
There very cool
How big is the Thailand black now??
About 2 inch ?
😂😂 what a surprise 😂😂
i really like your enclosures mate
Thanks mate 👍👍
How many years have you been doing this
40 maybe 😂😂
5:15: That's not a spider, that's a space station!
😂😂😂😂
I jumped and screamed so loud when the horned baboon like literally jumped and then flew right at you! Thank goodness he missed and landed on the other side of it's enclosure! I love your videos but im still very afraid of them Lol
So Exotic Lair’s tarantulas are all ungrateful and have an attitude and this guy seems to get all the chill ones😹
got to love them 😂👍
I think it has more to do with how Dave approaches them.
she's a unicorn !!!
Dave, is that a CGI spider? You could throw a bloody saddle on that thing.
Hey! What was the unknown baboon? A grey Pterinochylus Murinus? It seems to be golden over some legs, but otherwise it looked like the OBT... Thanks for your work!

Im so glad your feeling ready for your next spider, think carefully and choose wisely 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties Going for another G.rosea, nice and easy. May consider something a little more challenging later on.
@@jimb1453 Thats it take your time and enjoy them 👍
what a beauty blonde!
How old is the Blondi ?
Only half grown
You should keep the cardinal spider in a little enclosure I’ve heard it’s the biggest spider in the uk
Ps I need to sleep but can't stop watching...... 😁😁😁
❤️❤️❤️
Sub adult. Holy smokes!
Wow that sling sure wanted to get out of that tub and wasn't waiting for the human to fully remove the lid rofl.
Got to watch your fingers sometimes😂😂😂
