- Sling care to Juvies the Beastie Way
Today we are going to look at how we house our slings from nymphs to Juvies and the reasons behind why we do it this way and try and debunk some of the old myths along the way

I'd love to see these sling follow ups more often. It is fascinating to see their progress :) Hello from Australia! I hope the stow away huntsman is doing well!
She is well ❤️
Me to I know it's alot but I'm sure Mr and Mrs Beastie do a fantastic job 😁
I'm so glad you covered this. I was planning on getting a regular-sized enclosure for my 1st young spider. Lol that wouldn't have been good at all.
Glad I could help!❤️👍
It's neat to see the stages next to each other. They grow up so fast.
Thanks for this great explanation! You guys are obviously doing something right because you have a poo ton of babies. If anyone doubts you they are obviously nuts. Your vids are more than proof enough that you have figured out what these animals actually need to thrive. It would be like telling the sun he don't know how to shine. I would tell these people to sit down and watch a good 6 to 10 of your vids and then comment on how "horrible" you're treating them. I really don't think they could. 🕷❤️
There is nothing wrong with questioning . That is part of how science is used to progress the hobby.
The complainers here need to watch some of the videos of other spider keepers on UTube and watch how they treat their spiders and the egg sacs and the babies. Not very pleasant to watch. Dave’s Little Beasties is the best so far. Very humanitarian and knowledgeable of his hobby and his critters. Just Saying!
I'm a gardener. When I move my vegetable starts into pots that are too big, I get leggy, unhealthy plants that struggle. Sounds like the same with your spiders. That is fascinating to me!
Its very true for most living things ❤️👍
is this video PROFF one off the top ten with brilliant information on the BEASTIE ROOM point of view. great to see how you treat from eggs with legs to the growth of the spider ongoing to maturity . another fine work from the CAMERA LADY. magical points of interest to help the hobby. many thanks guys and take care.
Wow, thanks! buddy ❤️👍
I am interested in the feeding of the spiders from the first through the third pot stages.
Just like re-potting plants... increase the size slowly to give it the best chance.
I'm not a huge fan of Spiders but I'm becoming quite emotionally invested in your videos!! 👌👌😊
This is how it happens 😀
Thats awesome ❤️❤️❤️
At first I felt bad because of the small enclosure but then I thought spiders don't really move around a lot so it makes sense that they don't need more space.
I don't think I could be so delicate with such small beasties. Truly epic footage. 10/10
Great video. Live that you're mixing it up. I almost got bored about seeing the same kind of video over and over again.
My daughter has been trying to get me to rehouse half my collection because she thinks they need more room. And I've been trying to explain they don't need it quite yet. I'll show her this video thank You Dave!
❤️❤️❤️
I saw that egg sack pull, and the prize was indeed glorious! 🎉 I could feel your joy through the screen of my I-pad! I wanted to comment, but I swear I could hear the baby lullaby song playing for the little ones, and I fell straight to sleep! This is soo fun watching you do all the work. That poor spider daddy though, he didn’t get to see the results of his sacrifice 😢 but he did good! Thanks for sharing!
Love to see the stages of the spiders and how to take care of them.
Keeping it simple is so much easier to maintain and more room in your room!
It's wonderful to hear you speak about spiders dear Dave and the keeping of them from eggs with legs throughout their growing up process in the hobby ( so enjoyable and also so sensible )! You have the best natural approach to it all and don't complicate things in an unnecessary way and you have the spiders well-being in mind all the time but also our Sweet Camera Lady by your side to help! Thank you both for doing what you do and teaching people that spiders are a good little beasties to have around not only in the hobby of course but also in nature and sometimes in our houses too!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
I love the way you take care of them in stages and you do what is best for the spider not you. You also have research to back it up. You guys are amazing, as always, thank you 💙💙💙
Wonderful video Dave! I have 3 different slings at the moment H. Maculata, Saraburi earth tiger, P. Regalis and all of them came in dram vials all have molted multiple times and are now in the next size up they have done amazing!! I followed your leads Dave and everything is great. All this information Dave is so helpful on sling raising I have lost slings before in the past, but I switched the techniques and all worked out!! Thanks millions Dave and camera lady!!🕷
Thats awesome mate 👍
Awesome, kinda common sense really, you want health slings, not a where's Waldo in a huge enclosure. 👍😃👍
Good job Dave and Camera Lady! You have your work cut out for you there is a lot of Ts in that room. WoW! & WoW! Keep up the good work and videos. Love from Fl.
Love seeing the babies great video as always 💗
Love watching how much you care for the spiders. Absolutely beautiful spiders
Those babies are adorable.
Since watching your vlogs I've utilized some of what you have shown to rescue bathtub trapped wolf spiders. I use a paintbrush to get them into a container and then release them outside. Love your vlogs.
❤❤❤
Meant to leave a comment the last video where u introduced the female, it sounded like a heavyweight champ for eating males lol! Great info as always and the Metallica slings look so cool! Didn't know about that with the housing and how it affects their growth. Shouts to Mrs. Beastie for the cam work too! Thanks Dave!
👍❤️
If I remember correctly Dave has also said that if the enclosure is too big it's harder for them to find their food. Bigger is not always better. Thank you for all your wonderful videos and information you give us!!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Looking forward to tmr night 20.00 hrs GMT (for our overseas subs 😉) I also clicked 👍. I'm such a good girl 😊
When I explain that some folks understand /idea of an arboreal enclosure is screwy it falls on deaf ears. They look at an enclosure without knowing the size compared to the animal and because the height dosnt exceed the length “ it’s not arboreal.”
Great video footage and excellent reasoning behind your decisions Dave - you’re also not afraid to say “We simply don’t know” as well, rather than just guessing and not disclosing that fact.
I’ve heard other opinions on all subjects, but mostly that’s all you get - an opinion, citing no source or basis for it, so that just makes things too subjective and personal for me; having a background in science I need to know the reasoning and logic behind a decision; maybe it’s just me, but doing something and not having an explanation as to *why* gives me no confidence in the reasoning behind it.
Thank you. ❤❤👍😉
I fully agree my friend ❤️👍
Spiders, unlike most creatures, prefer small cramped spaces. Which is why I have always found that they don't thrive as well in big enclosurs, as they would in something that makes them feel more cramped and secure.
Can't wait to have you on again, and thank you for the shout out.
Always my pleasure mate 👍
It is great to hear divergent opinions on the subject of enclosure size calmly discussed!
Loved the bit at the end of the video, when you said about many of your spiders being out because they are happy and content. Nice. Still can’t believe the amount of eggs with legs you had with your Kraken! ( sorry if I misspelt the name).
Glad you enjoyed it!
Be calm gentle and love your spider 🕸🕷 😊
Great video that's come just at the right time. I picked up a lot of small grown on arboreals at the southern show yesterday (was nice to speak to you briefly, I was the guy in the GBB hoody) I was about to re house these and now realize I don't need to just yet.
Was a great day 😂👍
Another great video! This was so interesting to see the difference between the stages of growth. I really enjoyed it!
Incase any other viewers are reading this, something that I do, I click tge like button every time I've watched a video from Dave's channel so I know I haven't missed it. Kinda like a book mark. Just an idea that perhaps others may find useful.
Thanks and praise to Dave and Mrs Camera lady. With love from Peterborough Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️
Awesome! Thank you! my friend ❤️❤️❤️
What an informative video! You obvious know what you are doing and raise very healthy spiders. I can’t imagine how you get them all fed!
I have a camera lady who loves feeding slings 😂❤️👍
😉 Once again, an excellent run-thru. Extremely informative and his interesting. If I were ever to get into the hobby your down to earth practical advice and attitude towards it would be my model to adopt. Thanks, Beastie Team!
🇺🇸🙂🇺🇸
Thank you 🙏
Great video, Dave. Thanks for sharing!
Great! Been worried about my P Rufilata sling, and then this comes out. 🎉
"Kojak slings" you got me with that one!! 😅 who loves ya, baby?
Have you guys found any more of those baby Huntsmans around the Beastie room?
Good question!
No im starting to think maybe she eat them?
Thanks Dave. Your channel is the utopia of what the dream of TH-cam is designed to be. Your channel, the style, your commitment to excellence and your ability to expertly share your vast knowledge is unsurpassed. What you know and what you give is an absolute asset to this community. I know you don't do all this on your own, it's Camera Lady that keeps your act together, and she deserves much recognition as well. Between the two of you, you have both created the pinnacle of this hobby.
Thank you for your caring and giving. You have both taught me so very much.
Thank you my friend really appreciate your support ❤️👍
There's me thinking the only reason you upgrade them is to stop them webbing the bloody lid up. 🤣
Very informative Dave! Thank you for sharing!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent video Dave, great work by the camera lady too.
Being a long time follower you have explained this before and it makes perfect sense to me.. keep the calories in the spider for health and growth instead of being burned up wandering around a big enclosure.... You need to show another vid with our beloved camera lady chasing them slings and putting them in pots.. it has been a long time since we have seen her counting or capturing these little spider lings..
You are a bloody champion! Thank you for this information. I’ve still got a week or 2 before I need to separate my Golden Knees (sounds a bit rude!) . Do you wait until they are potted up before you feed them? Do you just feed fruit flies? I have read they are not great nutritionally. Now I am asking the Master. Once again - thank you for your great advice, and your readiness to share your experience.
Fruit flies are great to get them started becouse of the large numbers you can leave them together for a while and just feed a load of fruit flies into the pot 👍
This is the video to see the difference in stages nymphs to sling. Thank you so much. very insightful indeed.
So so good video. Never to many videos like this, specialy for people who just started their journey with spiders just like me. Good to have here people like Dave. Take the knowlege people and learn from the best. Tkank You Dave 👍🤝
Awesome thank you ❤️👍and welcome to our channel 👍
Absolutely fascinating to see the stages of life of these little ones. I am now aware that I recieved a nymph rather than sling earlier this year (included as a freebie). Maybe it's best I didn't know as I would have been 1000x more nervous than I was.
I just realized I received two nymphs and one sling yesterday now that I've watched this video! LOL! More nervous than ever now just like what you're talking about. They are micro tiny! So cute and fragile.
Very interesting info Dave. I would love an update on all the babies. Tyfs God bless you
Very good informative video, at what stage and what do you feed your slings?
As soon as they moult into slings 👍
Really great information. I enjoyed the updates on your new additions. You had mentioned (a while back) about doing an updated room tour, I hope I did not miss that. And do keep us informed if anymore Huntsmen are found around the room. Just an aside mention will do. Much Love!
Thanks! Will do!
So what I learned basically that the young spiders don't need a Web Mat to molt.
They will still produce a web matt for moulting 👍
That was a very informative video Dave. Thanks for that! I was looking thru some of your past videos, when the wall behind you literally had nothing on it. It would be fun to do a retrospective video of the history of the Beasty room. It's really really become quite a collection!
Yes its grown , ive always had a lot just spread all over the place now its more organised 😂
Love your show as always...
Much appreciated
I kind of follow your logic in a sense. My Brachypelmas/Grammostola/Tliltocatl are all in Medium-sized Kritter Keepers (the equivalent of a 2.5 Gal Glass tank) instead of the typical Large ones (5 Gal). Even at 5-6+" DLS, they have more than enough room to roam about. The smaller size also makes predator/prey interaction quicker. I also keep it simple, several inches of sub, a hide and a water dish. Boom ! Done.
Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)
I know it's alot but I'm sure Mr and Mrs Beastie do a fantastic job 😁
Amazing knowledge as always, very informative, and very nice experience meeting you at Brighton show,my boy couldn't believe how nice and humble you were, a pleasure sir
The pleasure was mine my friends ❤️👍
Those are the cutest spiders I have ever seen
I’m positive you know what your saying works, the proof is in the final product-or spider ☺️
I would hope our spiders speak for themselves ❤️👍
Awesome video as allways Dave, I do have one question some may think it’s a daft question , But at what point once the sack has been emptied into the incubator cups when do you start adding food ? Best wishes Andy
As soon as they moult into slings we start feeding them 👍
Hi Dave and Camera Lady, hope you’re both doing well. 💙💕🕷️
Brilliant video from The Beastie Room, or should I say The BESTIE Room!! 😊
Aww, it was so good seeing the Nymphs and the Slings that’s in their nursery pots again today. They are coming on well. I had a right giggle at your “Kojak” comment 😂
I bet Camera Lady enjoys separating the slings into their own wee abodes!
I’m sure that people who buy Slings or adolescent Tarantulas or Spiders from You, do know that they’re getting A1 conditioned arachnids.
Thanks for sharing this information for those that may be just starting out, or even for the old hands 😂
Take care and stay safe 💙💕🕷️😘xxx
Thank you 🙏❤
mornig all 👋
Hello from sweden here!! 😄 Me and my son (7 year old) loves too see you and your spiders🥰 And cameralady 😄🥰
Lots of love from Eleonor and Wille!
Thanks for watching ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hello 👋 hope your having a good day/night here in the USA my state it's 1am
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Another amazing video Dave, you have answered so many questions for me. Showing all of the different stages of growth and how and why you keep in enclosures keeps them healthy and strong.
Another really interesting video As an outsider to the hobby it’s amazing to see the stages a spider goes through to reach adulthood and the work and care you give to ensure good health one question how old does a spider have to be before you consider selling it
They can be sold as soon as they moult to slings 👍
Thank you Dave I really enjoyed the Video , To see the different Strangers they go through What's interesting To see eggs with lace to a proper sling, I don't keep spiders so I enjoyed it very much to see the different stages keep up the good work Dave and Cameron lady love you from California
Glad you enjoyed it check out the video on the T.stirmi development from egg to sling ❤️👍
I respect your upload rate and the willingness to teach people!! Super excited for your videos mate. Whats ur favourite spider? Mine woukd have to be the blue coloured trap door spider, its so cool
I dont really have a favarite but my krachan im very fond of ❤️👍
Your so skilled in what you do dave i love it!
Thank you so much ❤️👍
Thank you very much. Good information.
I just received three slings and I'm definitely positive now that these incredibly tiny slings/nymphs will be okay in the enclosure they are in for quite a while now. Thanks for posting! I have 11 tarantulas now and have been keeping since 2019 and researching Ts since 2013 and I LOVE LEARNING NEW THINGS ABOUT KEEPING! This is the exact video I needed right now. Perfect timing! My three little micro babies are eating right now too! All three of the babies I received yesterday morning! Hungry little buggers!🥰
Hi ya Dave and Camera Lady!!
I like the way how you keep things real, i think a lot of the channels can be a real pain in the ass with all the flashy scary making look at me i'm a spider keeper crap. I have been watching a lot of your video's and they never disappoint, keep it up Dave! (and camera lady of course!) Cheers from the Netherlands.
Thank you 🙏
For me I put my C.Versicolor sling a container similar in size to that larger one shown and kinda regretted it at first but now it's settled down and made a lovely home so I'm happy with now. I completely understand why breeders would keep them in smaller enclosures for longer due to space constraints and don't see an issue with it. Awesome video Dave very informative :) I'm following all your advice for my 2 tarantula's and so far, everything's going well only difference is I don't have bio active as I'm not a big fan of them although I am thinking of making a bio activate enclosure but not with a tarantula lol
Good stuff brother- might be moving closer to getting into the hobby, so still absorbing this stuff, to that end!! Cheers
Nice. I have always seperated them when they where eggs with legs or nymphs and let they go from that. I founded that to be the easiest. Sometines if ibwas off timing and found that they moulted out into slings in the eggsack, it was much more troubeling to seperate them. Sometimes with some speicies like H villosella i let them hatch into females tank, but that was because i held them in communal setting. Once or twice, if i had a speicies that produced large clutch (forgive me) i kept them together and let them eat each other to decrease the number
Love watching your videos and I've based alot of my Tarantula care on your videos from going out with a trusty carrier bag into the local woods for cork bark, moss and other bits and bobs,, and on this video the "Kojack spider" as soon as you said this it reminded me of my grandad and he used to say things like this,, sorry to make you feel old by saying that,, keep up the amazing work and it's always nice to see a Yorkshire lad doing this and representing on TH-cam,, great job camera lady,, I wish my wife was more hands on haha
I find that in this hobby, it's easy to get caught up in overdoing it, when actually some reason goes quite a long way. points taken. Thanks!
Really useful and interesting video, cheers!
Just Brilliant.
Loved this one! 😻😻😻
Well done.
