Lol appreciate the kind words Tom. Hopefully you'll have as good of a time raising the little monsters as I do. The whole genus is criminally underrated and for the longest time, their prices have been inhibitive to most collectors. I aim to change that, however if I'm going to try to increase their availability at a lower price point, I need to increase the readily available knowledge on their care to ensure my efforts to establish the species stateside aren't in vain. That's where you come in sir, so this is much more of a quid pro quo situation then a gift 😊. Thanks Tom and the FNT team.
Matt! I'm so glad that I can thank you "in person"! haha Seriously, I truly appreciate it, and I completely respect that. I will definitely do my best to get the word out about them. :) Again, thank you!
@@TomsBigSpiders, anytime sir. I'll likely reach out on AB in the coming weeks to finish a discussion I started on the dangers of CO2 pooling in the comment section of your last Aphonopelma video (I can't put visuals in YT comments). The problem is magnified with moisture dependent fossorials as there are exponentially more CO2 producing micro organisms and soil fauna in moist substrate than in dry substrate. We may agree to disagree in the end upon a measurable health impact to the animals, but I'm willing to bet I can completely change your perspective on ventilation placement and impact. In regards to producing Phormingochilus spp, I have Sabah Blue lined up for the end of this year, everetti will go early next year, Sabah Dwarf should line up at the end of next year, Sabah Red might line up late next year, pennellhewlettorum will likely be late next year (I produced those earlier this year), and Akcaya will likely line up again then too.
Billie you go beyond the call of duty for ANY wife. You are the star of this show, even tho you are never on camera. You work the cam. No one gives the camera person the credit they deserve. Love your new T's Tom but centipede and I looked the other way.
Your idea of putting some clutter in the rehousing bin save me from losing a huntsman sling and a P cambridgei, it still took me some time to find them because I was using moss instead of paper towel (which was the exact same color as the huntsman) plus the cambridgei snuck into a vial and squished itself so unbelievably tiny, I just kept overlooking it thinking it was moss and dirt 😂 But I was so thankful they were both still in the bin instead of loose in my house!
I'm so glad that worked for you. It's only come into play a few times for me, but those are the times that really make it worth it. haha And I'm glad that you found it. haha :)
Tom.. Love the tarantula videos and absolutely respect your strictness on keeping the channel professional with Tarantula rehousing, and husbandry videos... BUT I think a lot of us would LOVE a you tube short of your tattoos.. Just an Idea ;) Great video, thank you!
S Calceatum, love my dude. Painfully shy and rarely seen, but always a jaw-dropping sight. Amazing selection of species. Big hellos, and thanks for the amazing videos from Billie and yourself 👍😃
Only ever kept the Hati Hati from this genus, she's easily the calmest, gentlest spider I have lol BUT a recluse to the max. Great vid and may your HH be as sweet as my Reign 😂❤
Hey Tom, thank you so much for all the work your putting in! The Akcaya is one of my bucket list spiders. Unfortunately my sling just passed yesterday. It molted perfectly and two days later it was crunched up and moldy :( and the worst thing is i really don't have a clue about what could've happened. I wish you luck with yours! Much love from Germany :)
I'm so very sorry to hear that. UGH. Sadly, you may have just received a weaker one. That's the only issue with slings; some just fail to thrive. Again, I'm sorry. Greeting from the US!
Nice spiders and I like the name you gave the pack. The nearest pet store to me that sells exotics has had a C. minax and a S. calceatum for a couple years now, and I've been waiting till I own a home to pick them up. Not comfortable keeping "heart attack pack" species in a rental property just to be safe in case of the highly unlikely event of any escapes. But I expect the spiders will still be available within the year as they don't seem to be going anywhere.
Thanks, Chenin! I completely understand that; I wouldn't want to have to tell my landlord that. haha Yeah, they are pretty common, so they'll be available when the time is right. Hope all is well!
I'm so excited to see a sp. Hati Hati in there! Their adult coloration is unbelievable. And, of course, lots of love for Cyriopagopuses (Cyriopagopi? Cyriopagopodes.) in general
I've had my feather leg for about 6 months and I can tell you she is really fast. The good news is I think a barber's growth enclosure will be great for her forever home. The fun part's going to be getting her in there of course. If and since I've been working with this one, I can definitely say I am now ready for an OBT so I'm going to make that a Halloween present to myself. And I'm definitely interested in the bat eater sorry I can't spell that scientific name. Anyway, great show great podcast. I do appreciate all the information.
Hey, Scott! Do they make the Barbarous growth enclosures in arboreal sizes? And I would say that you're definitely ready for the OBT. :) Thanks so much!
@@TomsBigSpiders they've got three different sizes that I've seen and I'm sure that you could turn the largest size kind of like a terrestrial enclosure into more like an arboreal just by having several cork tubes. I've got the largest one they offer on Amazon The 20x10x11 and that's what I have my Colombian giant red leg in I'm about to place an order for their medium and another large one. The reason I was thinking the barbarous growth enclosure might be a little easier to deal with feeding and watering would be because it has that little feeder spot. Currently my feather leg is in a 20 oz screw top deli cup which makes feeding very interesting to say the least. So it's time for something a little easier lol. Just not sure whether to put her in the medium or the large one at the moment but that order comes in next week.
Hi Tom, I've been watching your vids and listening to the podcast a lot for a little while now. You are the reason I just purchased my first t! A tiny little curly hair sling. Got it housed in 7 oz container. Hopefully I can do it justice!
Great video Tom I’ve got a c minax I’ve been raising. She molted twice with me at first was quite bold but now hides more. The hatti hatti I’ve been after for a long time just haven’t got round to purchasing one.
Really need a minax. I have a young Lividus and catching her out (also freshly moulted!) is so rewarding. Solid black spiders are awesome. The Ackaya is awesome too, one I recently discovered on Dave’s little beasties. Look forward to updates
😮 centipedes give me a serious case of the willies. I’ve every faith in you worth any species of T but centipedes make me uuuuuurghhhhhhh. Waves to the lovely Billie
Good luck with the ' Ackya ' hope you get a female. I got 3 little slings when they were first available in the UK a couple of years back. All 3 matured into males fairly quickly, I gave up with them after that. I don't know if it was just bad luck or there are more males than females, they wasn't cheap at the time either. Good video Tom I usually watch your videos but this is the first time I've commented.
Great viewing and the feather leg lived up to its reputation even as a sling. This is a real brave box of hate lol. I spent half the day yesterday plucking up the courage to rehouse my spicy OBT and blow me, she just wondered out of the old home into the new one. I was surprised she didn’t stop and ask for a cup of tea haha. It just goes to show it depends on the individual spider. Got my 3 juvie h Mac to do next but I’m not letting my guard down with them.
Bahahaha Don't you love when that happens? A similar thing happened to me years ago when I went to rehouse my sub-adult female OBT. After a week of playing it through my mind and worrying about it, she was calm as could be. Since then, I've raised 9 more, and they've all been fine. Yeah, that's the trick - hope for the best but plan for the worst and don't let your guard down. haha Thanks, bud!
Have all of these except S. Cal (intentionally). C. Longipes has quickly become a favorite of mine. I loved the video where worldofspiders finds them in the wild. Their abdomen is AMAZING. I have a 3+" female and x2 slings. Not a single issue. I have multiple C. Hati Hati and they're amazing. Great feeding response and really easy to keep. Phormingochilus sp Akcaya that I have is 3+" female and hides until night then chills out on the corkbark. Seems to want to hunt, so I feed crickets (yuck). My C. Minax is like all my other Cyriopagopus. Chill Asian fossorials that eat and hide. Lol
Ive got two Cyriopagopus sp tom the Cyriopagopus lividus and Cyriopagopus minax juvenile female ❤minax being my ultimate favourite tarantula i got a calceatum to not got cerytogyrus sp yet! Nice little parcel mate!
I bought that off of Sammy Santiago on the bus for $5 when I was in the 7th grade. hahaha It's a minor miracle that I've never lost it over the years. haha
I love my calceatum, mine has never bolted or given me a threat pose. Honestly one of my most well behaved spiders. They are beautiful too, they remind me of the togo starburst (heteroscodra maculata)
Great video as always Tom! I just have a random question: what species is that to the right of you during your intro, in the large enclosure with all the webbing?
Darn it Tom. I saw this and thought I have a Fear Not order maybe I'll be brave and add a minax or a H mac, then I saw the 3 psalmos for 55. Whelp looks like I'm getting 4 spiders. 😂 little surprised you didn't mention V. chromatis in the last pod caste. Mine is easily my most nutsy and defensive T. Love her though.
Hey, Erik! Yeah, that Psalmo deal is fantastice! haha :) As for the V. chromatus, mine is quite shy overall and will retreat to her burrow if disturbed. That said, I've heard from others who have said theirs are handfuls. :)
My Hati Hati is an adult and is NEVER on her cork bark. She’s a burrower and a total sweetheart. My S. calc. is literally the easiest T I’ve ever rehoused each time and super docile. She’s a gorgeous T.
I see heart attack pack and with out even watching I want this pack lol 😆 I like them a little more spicy … i could add my A geniculata to that pack lol that bugger is spicy and I have 3 P. murinus .. I like you tattoos btw nice work
Babies are too cute 😊❤ I can't wait to see them when they're big enough to see them. But I do like the Thailand black ❤❤❤ I don't like the pedes, they scare me 😨
Hey, I’m a big fan. I order a lot from here not tarantulas and if you’re gonna get slings, you should know that they’re gonna be like 1/3 1/8 1/5 a half. that’s how I got all mine and now mine is about a dollar quarter size I have a lot things to you guys teaching me
Hello! These guys were all between .5 and .75" or so, so they really weren't that much smaller than I was expecting. I just should have set up the smaller enclosures! Thanks so much!
Cyriopagopus in general are so underrated. I've got 2 Hati Hati slings that I am currently raising like Omothymus species. If I remember right the name means "Hurt hurt" or caution, due to the potent venom. I've got a big female S. calceatum that is awesome. She laid a sac so I am currently incubating that. If you want more than one, let me know 😂
Hi, Stephanie! I will definitely do an update on them. Right now, I have them in a Crapelle's glad enclosure, but I had to modify it to make sure that the nymphs couldn't escape! I'll get to work on that.
Nice bro I'm working with a lot of cool Ornithoctoninae right now. Phormingochilus sp sabah dwarf, Ornithoctoninae sp hai bia, Cyriopagopus schmidti "phong na-ke bang", Ornithoctoninae sp ranong blue, Ornithoctoninae sp Vietnam highland, Ornithoctoninae sp veronica, Ornithoctoninae sp nhen dep, Ornithoctoninae sp ho chi minh, among about a dozen others
I'm definitely going to have to pick up more species from the genus. I've raised up a few over the years, but I tend to get males. You've got an awesome collection of them there!
I went to an expo yesterday looking to pick up my first old world T. At the very last table that had tarantulas, there was a laminated image of H. pulchripes, which is exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, they said they had just sold their last one, and suggested I ask one of the other vendors. I did that, but they didn't have any either. They told me they had some earlier in the year and have a paired female at home, though. I picked up a 1in P. irminia from them, then went back to the table that had the H. pulchripes image. After talking for about 30 minutes, I ended up buying their "Old World Mystery Bag" for $75. It came with an OBT, Phormingochilus sp. rufus, and Heterothele villosella. He said he checked what was in there before suggesting it to me, and that he wouldn't have given me an S. cal, H. mac, pokie or anything like that. Honestly, I'm not scared of any of the ones I got. The sp. rufus lunged at the brush once while I was rehousing them, but of course they were just scared. None of them were anywhere near as defensive as my Lasiocyano sazimai. I'm more nervous about keeping arboreals in general than old worlds vs new worlds. My first arboreal was a C. versicolor sling that got eaten by dwarf white isopods when it decided to molt on the ground instead of its web hammock (I left a comment about that on spotify, and you talked about it on the podcast), and I haven't had another arboreal until now.
Should check out exotics u limited they local to me here in North Carolina. Good ppl and some Rare Ts. Also I know fnt and EU getting some Mooreaes by the end of the month🤘🏼
@@TomsBigSpiders I knew you had kids just not grown kids lol, also I went to an expo yesterday and the invert vendor was none other than swifts inverts, I got a Cambridgei and a Thailand bush scorpion

Hello! These guys were all between .5 and .75" or so, so they really weren't that much smaller than I was expecting. I just should have set up the smaller enclosures! Thanks so much!
What drill bit do you use for making the vent holes in your enclosures?
For the soft plastic, I just use a regular drillbit. For the acrylic and hard plastic, I have ones that are meant for acrylic.
It's been a long time since I've seen a sp Hati Hati. Last time, it was still under Ornithoctoninae.
Ahhh...the good old days. haha
Cyriopagopus in general are so underrated. I've got 2 Hati Hati slings that I am currently raising like Omothymus species. If I remember right the name means "Hurt hurt" or caution, due to the potent venom.
I've got a big female S. calceatum that is awesome. She laid a sac so I am currently incubating that. If you want more than one, let me know 😂

I have FINALLY joined the club, bud! haha I'm guessing that it probably will be. I'm going to give it plenty of places to hide. haha Hope all is well!
I'm a spider guy, that loves centipedes and scorpions. However, my lady is deathly afraid of centipedes, so I don't currently keep any.
I love them myself, but Billie is NOT a fan. haha
Nice bro I'm working with a lot of cool Ornithoctoninae right now. Phormingochilus sp sabah dwarf, Ornithoctoninae sp hai bia, Cyriopagopus schmidti "phong na-ke bang", Ornithoctoninae sp ranong blue, Ornithoctoninae sp Vietnam highland, Ornithoctoninae sp veronica, Ornithoctoninae sp nhen dep, Ornithoctoninae sp ho chi minh, among about a dozen others
I'm definitely going to have to pick up more species from the genus. I've raised up a few over the years, but I tend to get males. You've got an awesome collection of them there!
Hell ya brother that's mainly all I keep these days. I got some hon sej, and sp hana as well a couple days ago @TomsBigSpiders
I went to an expo yesterday looking to pick up my first old world T. At the very last table that had tarantulas, there was a laminated image of H. pulchripes, which is exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, they said they had just sold their last one, and suggested I ask one of the other vendors. I did that, but they didn't have any either. They told me they had some earlier in the year and have a paired female at home, though. I picked up a 1in P. irminia from them, then went back to the table that had the H. pulchripes image. After talking for about 30 minutes, I ended up buying their "Old World Mystery Bag" for $75. It came with an OBT, Phormingochilus sp. rufus, and Heterothele villosella. He said he checked what was in there before suggesting it to me, and that he wouldn't have given me an S. cal, H. mac, pokie or anything like that. Honestly, I'm not scared of any of the ones I got. The sp. rufus lunged at the brush once while I was rehousing them, but of course they were just scared. None of them were anywhere near as defensive as my Lasiocyano sazimai. I'm more nervous about keeping arboreals in general than old worlds vs new worlds. My first arboreal was a C. versicolor sling that got eaten by dwarf white isopods when it decided to molt on the ground instead of its web hammock (I left a comment about that on spotify, and you talked about it on the podcast), and I haven't had another arboreal until now.
I WANT A THAILAND BLACK SOOOOOOO BAD!!
Get one! :)
@@TomsBigSpiders I’d love to, but I’m not that advanced yet! I only have 3
@@KANE8225 Ahhhhh! Okay, I get it now! :)
Just get it. You won't be more advanced by having more spiders. They are all essentially the same.
@@CyanideOwl nah, the speed and temperament is far different than what I have and am used to
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 yassssssssssss

@@TomsBigSpiders how long have you had your mooreae? Mine molted like 2-3 weeks ago. Second molt with me and sucker went 6 months with it lol
“Hati-hati” means caution or be careful. “Hati” as a singular word would mean heart. Oddly enough this species is rather docile ime lol
Thanks so much! Yeah, most are saying that they are shy!
I love my cats, my tarantulas, even centipedes. But I also know that my cats would kill the centipede quickly
They will quickly kill tarantulas, too. It happens far too much.
You have a grandson now?!?! 😂
Hey, Kevin! He's 3 and a half now! haha We had our oldest son really young; he's almost 30. :)
@@TomsBigSpiders I knew you had kids just not grown kids lol, also I went to an expo yesterday and the invert vendor was none other than swifts inverts, I got a Cambridgei and a Thailand bush scorpion
