Dave, I've basically binged watched your entire channel in two weeks time. I've said it a couple times in previous videos...You have the best one liners. "Lets hope he doesn't get MUNCHED" 🤣🤣😂
Dave is an amazing guy, I love all his lines as well. I love the things he says often, like: We often get asked, what we are trying to achieve here, we can achieve this, now then what we’re gonna do. And the list goes on 😂.
@@noahroy2391 I agree with both of you. Also the "Now then...what did you all make of that?" And "She's an absolutely stunning spider...very very pretty " 😂How can you not love Dave?!
I have one, it is so awesome! Fast as lightning and has never been defensive. Always a good eater and makes an awesome tornado shaped burrow on the side of its enclosure. This species is for sure extra skittish but just amazing to look at :)
I'm loving seeing so many new people commenting and saying they have subscribed to you Dave. The amount of knowledge I have learnt from you is insane. Following your advice for rehousing makes it not only easy but also an enjoyable experience rather than being stressful. I even rehoused my friends AF obt which he is convinced is evil and I didn't get so much as a threat pose just 1 calm lady who acted like the queen she is, he asked how I did it and I pointed him towards your yt channel and told him to learn from the tarantula whisperer Dave Fisher himself. Not all hero's wear capes, some own tarantulas and have a ty channel where they share their knowledge and experience.
Thats awesome my friend so happy to hear how people are getting on using my techniques and finding they too are getting great results so glad your enjoying your hobby and thanks for the shout out to your friend ❤️👍
@Dave's Little Beasties I have taken your methods for rehouses... and my E. Murinus went so smoothly. Using a paint brush and constant contact. Flawless. You, sir, are a true pioneer of tarantula keeping. Thank you
Dave, never..not once have you said you had something really special for us and failed to come through, that was amazing! What a spinout of a spider, how bloody cheeky I thought.. I had absolutely no idea what was going on at the end when the roof of her den started to move, Genius move my friend, but why was I surprised, you're the Guru of "stay calm be gentle".. Anyways thanks again Beasties.👍😃👍
I think he was thinking about moving in to that perfect home with a beautiful spider wife and perhaps children on the way, 😉😊! Very interesting video indeed dear Dave and Sweet Camera Lady! Have a wonderful new week! Susanne.
Them sweet nothings hes been whispering are obviously working!🤣🤣you bleddy beauty Dave,this is why mondays and Thursdays are my favourite TH-cam days,I love it mate,it makes me a better keeper 😊
This is my favorite tarantula. He wanted to take his time. Must have enjoyed himself because he decided to stay. Very brave fellow. Wonder what she was thinking. Thank goodness for paintbrushes. lol! Excellent camera work, Camera Lady!
That was definitely an unexpected turn of events. I'm actually surprised the female did not rush out to him once he was laying down silk in her burrow. She would have certainly felt those vibrations. Crossing fingers for a nice, big sac in the end. Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)
This was a most interesting pairing of this stunning species, she just popped up for a quickie and she was gone, then the male looked like he wanted to move in with her 😂 most enjoyable video 👍👍👍
This video is great! I was worried for the male there for a second. I re-housed my adult female Chilobrachys Huahini today in a 30x30x32 Komodo tank, and fully took inspiration from this video as well as your Chilocrachys sp blue enclosure, created a mound in the corner of the viv with a starter borrow, live sheet moss over the top of the mound, with some added sphagnum moss dropping over and littered around burrow entrance. Not sure I would have been so creative if I hadn't seen this video. Massive thanks. Your content and husbandry is amazing.
I can totally understand why He wanted to move in, Her Burrow looks very nice and cozy. Maybe She sparen Him because He promised to fix the Doorstep😉 Anyway what's really cool about these Videos is that One gets to witness unusual Behavior from Time to Time. Very interesting. By the Way...a Bow and a Farewell to THE Queen.🌈
Yay-plenty more pairing vids to come! 🎉 Great video as always Dave! That’s female may have been well behaved, but the male was really lucky she didn’t see him as a threat. Once he started laying down web…I got nervous for him!!
I wonder if his webbing is meant to discourage other males...? Regardless that's oddly sweet; him making a bit of new carpet for her. What a great spider boyfriend haha. Well done saving Romeo here.
I would like to tell you that I really appreciate your videos. There are some people who don't understand how to deal with these creatures. They are neither careful nor do they have the necessary sensitivity. I also think it's great that you always give good tips - whether it's about the right care, housing, pairing.... Stay as you are and thank you for all the great videos you have provided for all of us and for the ones which are still coming. Be nice and gentle ;o) Good statement! Best regards from Germany (Cologne)
Amazing behaviour David.. I was dumbfounded as I watch that male kind of set up camp there.. I thought for sure when he went in that would be the last of him we saw.. (But you told us before that he survived..) Very cool video.. I like to see the different behaviours of these spiders.. it really makes me stop and try and figure out just what is going on and in this situation why he feels so secure there, and if it is, that he is truly safe or just a false sense of security.. So much fun.. thanks guys..
Absolutely excellent video Dave,I think he is laying web in her burrow to protect her ❤absolutely amazing(and they say tarantula’s don’t have feelings)
I love how much respect you show your little friends. I watched a reptile/snake TH-camr yesterday that kissed a Cobras head! A live one! SOOO disrespectful to the animal, as well as to the hobby. It angered me so much! This TH-camr is very popular amongst the kids and the message he’s giving them, isn’t a good one! That fool is going to be a reason why we won’t be able to have venomous/defensive creatures in our personal collections in the future! I tip my hat to you, Sir! ❤
That is exactly what I was thinking when you were talking about him running into the burrow. Put something over it so he can't run in there. You think of everything Dave!
You got this thing going in '15 and you're only just over 60k subs? Criminal. The care that you use with these animals is second to none. Something always happens that is new with the things to learn along the way. Top quality work sir.
How cool would it be if someone like James Cameron decided to do a movie for IMAX... Dave's Beasties, Dave's narrative... a big brother type spider house, cameras everywhere, nano go-pro's strapped to roaches... It would sell. 🤔😆👌
What great footage and he certainly was not a wham bang thank you Ma'am he was deffo not a love em n leave em sort of guy , he's well settled . Great work Camera Lady ...
Very interesting! Seeing the male web up the opening to the burrow was so unusual! He was obviously very relaxed at that point, but if I was responsible for getting him out of there, I'd have been biting my nails!! 😯 I so enjoy watching you work with the T's. (Never thought I'd say that!). Nice video! Thanks Dave!
Some times a mistake is a great teaching opportunity if you are willing to do so. I believe your community is lucky because you always use these opportunities to educate us thank you.
Hello Dave and Camera Lady. First off, what a relief that your package finally arrived. I am trying to decide which T to do next. Maybe an OBT… hmmmm. Anyway, lovely pairing. He certainly got comfortable in a hurry. Quite spindley isn’t he. I wish the female had come out a bit more. She just teased us with that one graceful black, velvety foot… lovely girl. Can’t wait to see the babies. Maybe I’ll do a Metallica next. All the possibilities. Well, have a wonderful start to your week. I already have with my viewing of your newest video.🙂 Stay safe and take care. Time to sleep 💤 😴🛏❤️💖
Wow LOL that guy was really setting up shop, she mustve been reallllllllly nice to him LOL. Would love to see that kind of behaviour be studied and interpreted.
Hello Dave, another great Video mate, your Succes rate in pairing is due to the way you care for your Spiders. You are a bloody credit to your Hobby mate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s great to see the youtube algorithm doing good and sending more people to this channel, you have a fantastic selection of spiders! I’ve never heard of this spider before but it looks impressive
I still remember the biggest spider I've seen irl. It was a giant wolf spider in Ontario, Canada. It was massive, bigger than my hand by far. I spotted it and tried to get a better look and as soon as I blinked it was gone. Thing was so fast it was crazy. Never been so creeped out on a hike before.
What an incredible video Dave that was absolutely fascinating!! I think after he got the deed done he decided she is the one and wanted to move in LOL 😆. The female’s behavior was quite interesting I was anticipating her bolting to the top and chasing him out. Camera lady outstanding footage I kinda felt like I was inside the enclosure at times! Wonderful video Dave I’ve not seen behavior like that before and as always I learned something new again from your teachings and this video guys, you make my Monday mornings!!!🕷
Omg almost had a heart attack ... this is one of my fav spider the markings are so vivid like a really nice Halloween costume ... and that male is a cool cat ....thanks for the great vid always get a kick with these pairing vids.
very interesting behaviour from the stud PROFF. as you say every one is a different choice off interaction and action when paring. another project that hopefully will come to a good result. great video CAMERA LADY. take care guys and many thanks
Looking forward to an egg sac. That was a super fast pairing with very unusual actions by the male - Dave have you ever seen a male hang around that long ?
my thought was put a sheet of paper in front of that burrow before he went in :D blockin that path but if just the shadow set him off then this would have too
This video demonstrates just how complex these creatures are when it comes to how they assess their surroundings and how they choose to react based on the assessment. I think that we tend to over generalize and simplify a spider's behavior. We don't give then much credit when it comes to how they process information and decide what to do with it. I was actually floored over this pairing; there was so much going on here that we will never be able to make sense of. I had already began to tense and feel a sense of dread when the male ran so fast into the burrow. It was just too familiar to a typical "feeding" when the prey goes running down a burrow right into the awaiting spider. I am still in shock that the male strolled casually out & began to web. We may never see this again!!
Hi another great video great looking tarantulas. I would like to get a Ephebopus murinus some day but can't find much if anything about the venom. As long as they are not life threatening that I'm ok with them. Have a great day.
Hi Dave and Camera Lady💙💕 hope you're both well. What a great pairing video again 🕷🕷I love the markings on the wee male, with the blue colour on his rear legs too. We didn't get much of a chance to see the female (Mr spider was very keen to get to the job in hand 😉) Your thumbnail shows her off though. That footage of the male was brilliant viewing. Giving himself a proper going over wasn't he 😃 And YES multitasking!! Fingers crossed that in a few months time there's going to be an egg sac. Thanks to you both 💙💕xxx
Dave amazing amazing I can't wait to breed my Skeleton leg now all I need is a male I finally have the confidence you're play by play was on the money and as always Camera lady just nails it love you both as always of course I do ❤
Absolutely fascinating Dave, never seen anything like it before, calm as you like, the way he sat in the entrance to the burrow, anyway Dave another super job by yourself and camera 📷 lady Dave.
This is probably my favourite speicies? Atleast NW. I have some favourite NW tarantulas. This may be number one!? I have a female that is adult now. I bought her as a unsexed juvenile like 5 years ago, so she has grown surprisingly slow. I have had them in the past, but they grew more fast back then. What i like about them is that they live like an asian fossorial, and i really like how they looks. And that they have urticating hairs on pedipalps. Very hungry spiders awell. Wonderful tarantula speicies
Exactly what we've come to expect from you Guys... Great footage of amazing behaviour & spot on explanation/ Narration.... I wonder why the Male only webbed the walls & floor, not across/ blocking the opening ? Really interesting ! Another Species with " Similar " markings, that I've not heard of in awhile is Aphonopelma seemanni, one of those Species that were quite common for some time.... I'm sure there was some successful pairings, so any idea on their current status in the Hobby, Dave ?
Yes theres plenty of them around we have many slings of them here available , very striking spiders the A.semmani have taken the place of the G.rosia 👍
When I first started watching your channel I couldn't figure out why you were saying they were leggy... Lol Then I kept watching and the males keep getting "Leggier" 😂😂 it makes sense now, especially when they're side by side and moving around..
The male hanging round the burrow, it's like he was pushing his luck leaving messages to the female.... Ok babe... 2nd time eh! I must be good. I shall leave you a few lines and you can call me... 'Runs into burrow, can I move in with you?' That large human is scaring me? Female: no, facing him like a man! Damn, ok if I must... Lol Beautiful spiders, but that male seriously decided he'd moved out of his own pad, into the females lol.
Dave, I've basically binged watched your entire channel in two weeks time. I've said it a couple times in previous videos...You have the best one liners. "Lets hope he doesn't get MUNCHED" 🤣🤣😂
As well as, "any longer and she'll be asking rent" You're the best
Dave is an amazing guy, I love all his lines as well. I love the things he says often, like: We often get asked, what we are trying to achieve here, we can achieve this, now then what we’re gonna do. And the list goes on 😂.
“Welcome back to the Beastie Room”…😊Love his videos! It’s the accent that I like too! I live in the US. I think the way we sound is boring 😂
@@tiffanystokes2046 His accent alone makes me smile for the entire video and I cannot stop smiling 🤣.
@@noahroy2391 I agree with both of you. Also the "Now then...what did you all make of that?" And "She's an absolutely stunning spider...very very pretty " 😂How can you not love Dave?!
I can honestly say, that I’ve never panicked FOR a spider before. I was really hoping he wouldn’t be eaten 🙃
Skeleton legs? Skeleton legs?! That's got to be the most badass name for a spider 😎
What an absolutely stunning spider.
I have one, it is so awesome! Fast as lightning and has never been defensive. Always a good eater and makes an awesome tornado shaped burrow on the side of its enclosure. This species is for sure extra skittish but just amazing to look at :)

Gorgeous spiders Dave I was afraid he was going to get munched. I'm really glad he didn't this is one of my favorite spiders.
I like the way you described the male's behaviors, "whispering sweet nothings"
was funny and accurate.
Thank you! 😃
I don't know why I'm watching another video with spiders. This is like an energy drink to me! I'm so on edge right now. 😰
Thanks for watching my friend ❤👍

Omg I’m so glad you said he was okay. But I was still worried that she was going to get him. Thanks for another great video.
Hi dave. Maybe he is laying down web to stop another male getting to her. Best regards James in scotland

“Oh my god he just does not care.” 😂😂😂
Fingers crossed it was a successful pairing. Happy that the guy didn't get munched goiing back down her burrow.

I tell you what Dave you're commentary is priceless 🤣 multitasking, moving in, paying rent .... 😍😍😍
❤️😂❤️
Love your videos!!!!
That webbing had to create vibrations that she would detect so I was surprised that that didn’t cause her to come up. Great save and nice work.
Nah, she was still on her bed, smoking.😜
Omg almost had a heart attack ... this is one of my fav spider the markings are so vivid like a really nice Halloween costume ... and that male is a cool cat ....thanks for the great vid always get a kick with these pairing vids.

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Looking forward to an egg sac. That was a super fast pairing with very unusual actions by the male - Dave have you ever seen a male hang around that long ?
Yes some do but not normally in the burrow 😂👍
If Dave doesn’t warn you at the start of the video then no need to worry..the male made it out alive! 😂
Yes, I rely on this because some days I’m just not in the mood to watch a murder.🫣
That is correct my friend ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi another great video great looking tarantulas. I would like to get a Ephebopus murinus some day but can't find much if anything about the venom. As long as they are not life threatening that I'm ok with them. Have a great day.
Yes these are not classed as terrible it wont be comfortable if bitten but but not life threatening 👍
Thanks for the information
Hi Dave and Camera Lady💙💕 hope you're both well.

Glad you liked it!

No unfortunately not 😭

Haha he made himself at home there for a while I don't think he would have left without you taking him out lol
Great video guys
👍😊
Thanks 👍
When I first started watching your channel I couldn't figure out why you were saying they were leggy... Lol Then I kept watching and the males keep getting "Leggier" 😂😂 it makes sense now, especially when they're side by side and moving around..
My favorite video for that was „does size matter?“. She is twice the size, but HE has legs. =)
She probably plumped up the pillows and lit him a cigarette.
Yet another T I now want. Lucky me my own camera lady finds this hobby interesting. :D
Thats awesome my friend ❤️
Dave, just thinking of you and the recent move. Hope all is working out in the new place.
Thank you my friend all good ❤️👍
The male hanging round the burrow, it's like he was pushing his luck leaving messages to the female.... Ok babe... 2nd time eh! I must be good. I shall leave you a few lines and you can call me... 'Runs into burrow, can I move in with you?' That large human is scaring me? Female: no, facing him like a man! Damn, ok if I must... Lol Beautiful spiders, but that male seriously decided he'd moved out of his own pad, into the females lol.
Awesome video. Fascinating behaviour from the male. Is it at all likely that they would have 'remembered' that they had met before?
Very possible yes I do think they all carry their own signature as we do 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties Yeah, that makes sense, Dave.
Another amazing video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much 😀
I had to watch this twice!!! What a cool guy, LoL 😂
Great job 🤜
I think the male does that laying down the web scent marking so that other males will be deterred thinking the female burrow is a male burrow!?! Yeah
Maybe 🤔
That is very smart, quite possible. Very cool if so.
