![I CAUGHT the RAT that ATE my TARANTULA !!! [an old old vid I found] #throwback](/img/n.gif)
My theory: she became egg-bound and hemorrhaged when she finally passed them.Maybe she had an abscess, a cyst, or perhaps the eggs were too large and when she managed to pass them she unfortunately couldn't stop the bleeding. The prob is us keepers are finding out the hard way about these issues and have to figure this out ourselves first-hand. Maybe do a necropsy if you can? Either way if you figure it out then please keep us updated and fingers crossed this doesn't happen again
I think ur theory may be correct
I've been following this channel for a long time but dont know much about tarantulas, would this mean that its a freak accident or something that just happens sometimes?
are you are doter
@@tipah yes
Windex
First of all, I am so sorry for your loss and I do believe that I know why this happened, and for the people who are saying it was the maggots, no it isn't the maggots, maggots are just a byproduct of decomposition they were probably in there after the spider died or right about as the spider was about to die. It is highly likely that as the tarantula layed the phantom egg sac the phantom egg sac was too large for the tarantula's abdomen and wounded it's abdomen. For vertebrates this wouldn't be a problem, but tarantulas are spiders (invertebrates) meaning that they are insects and are unique since they have hemocyanin (a copper compound) instead of hemoglobin and lack the factors that are needed for blood clotting, therefore a single wound can be deadly for a tarantula since they can bleed out because of a single wound and I believe that is what happened. Tarantula blood turns pale blue when it meets oxygen therefore the red stuff isn't actually tarantula blood but is actually the digestive track of the tarantula.
So to recap, the tarantula layed the phantom egg sac and her abdomen got damaged during it, she died of blood loss and a few flies that were small enough went into the enclosure and layed eggs on the decaying egg sack and tarantula causing those maggots.
Hope this helps.
Exactly what I was thinking! It’s really sad though. My little girl is still young and I may never breed her but the thought of something happening to her makes me very upset.
WOW you know your stuff I’ll borrow that advice too if you don’t mind xx
I'm so glad you know what it was
No weird. Egg bound. It happens.
Tarantulas are not insects....
Rest in peace. It's always difficult to lose your animal, even more so in a mysterious way.
this is not an animal lol
@@diesel4338 then tell me, good sir, what is it?
@@ivanbraginsky2896 insect or ARACHNIDA aaahhaaha me is crazy mouahaha and i just see arachnid and insect is a class of animal 😭🤣🤣 im wrong this thing are actually an animal.... omg
@@diesel4338 really? Then I guess it’s a plant. I don’t see any green lol leaves or roots coming out of her. But yeah maybe your right. Not
@@wakingforbacon6439 su
Rest in peace. Maybe the eggs started rotting, attracting flys who laid their eggs on the tarantulas eggs. It also looks like the moisture in her cave was building up, maybe that has something to do with it ....
If I had to guess she laid eggs and those eggs started to rot and decay which the smell of it probably attracted a parasitic fly of some sort and it then laid eggs on her and those eggs borrowed into her and the larva bursted out as a result...... I say keep one or two of those larva and wait till they reach adulthood to see exactly what they are just to be sure
Edit: that is what I usually did when I was into bug collecting as a kid... When one of my insects died for no reason what so ever because their enclosure where perfect for them and I see larva in there when there should be none I take a few of those larva and feed them in a separate enclosure and wait till they grow up to see what they exactly are and how to stop them in the future for harming any more of my insects
omg that close up to the burrow was crazy, it looks like a crime scene
Honestly, the inside of that burrow is like a soup of nastiness that's probably the reason why the tarantula died. They probably layed a phantom egg sac that went totally bad and never got removed so it just turned their enclosure.
Rest in peace I'm sending my prayers for you, i'm so sorry for your loss I hope you find out how she died.
It’s possible she was too full of eggs and it ruptured her abdomen when she was trying to lay them. 😢 It might have something to do with her molting cycle too, like if she was due for a molt or freshly molted. Man that sucks so bad though… I’m sorry dude. 😞
with all that dying going on, perhaps its time to spring clean the room to find the real cause of your situation?
You need to check your spiders more. For there to be maggots there had to be Flys.
Bro I know you didn't just put a dead tarantula with maggots crawling on her skin on a box with holes at the top
I love EL but I did notice that too…. I’m putting it down to him just being in total shock and not realising he did it because yeah, major contamination issue there for any animal keeper.
@@staceygrahame2504 I totally think it's the shock, it's just so scary!
I'm so sorry to see you lose another T and I know when I lost my pet I was in so much pain but I know you can get through this and find out what happened to her! RIP lovely tiger!
I’m so sorry. I feel your sadness as well. I’ve been in this channel for so long and that tarantula was one of my favorites 😔😢😭
So sorry for your loss. That was a beautiful tarantula I know that it's a hard loss. Not your fault it happens just like in nature
I think the eggs not being fertile, attracted the flies and they laid in/on them. Since she was near the sack the maggots got to her.
I think the problem was the maggots. When the egg sac starts dying and 100 maggots have formed then the maggots have eaten your spider.
Yeah he need to check on them way more often because it takes a while for maggots
@@cherrellebanks8215 Depends on the type of fly, it can be pretty quick too
It’s not possible, as maggots do not have teeth. Instead, they secrete enzymes which expeditiously break down necrotic tissue. Something else got this girl 😰
But don’t maggots only eat dead flesh? 🤔
I agree
Could this be something like that happens with chickens? Sometimes when they get to egglaying age, something is just wrong with their reproductive tract and they die. Maybe it was just some problem with that?
Oh I've been busy watching over your progress sorry for the late response ^ loss of your tarantula .😢 learning & enjoy your messages and your progress is always amazing 👏
She was a beautiful tarantula! My 8year old son loves the Tarantula POV video with her as the star. I am so sorry for your loss! I hope you discover or come up with a theory as to why she died. Cleaning the enclosure out might help. Tarantulas are beautiful creatures and losing one is heartbreaking.
Exotics looks like the moisture was really building up in her den. Maybe putting some drainage layers in with spiders that require a higher humidity. Seems to help mine an awful lot.
Rest in peace, i hope everything goes well. I hate seeing dead animals and hopefully you will find out how she died.
RIP. My sorrow goes out to you as to the cause I've never seen anything like this. I hope you find out what happen in time.
that swampy burrow may have something to do with it. maybe try cleaning their cages more or make sure you check their burrows to make sure they dont get swampy. i assume that's what happened; the swampy burrow attracted some sort of insect/bug and it laid eggs in there.
Unless it was how she laid the eggs? Perhaps they didn't come out the natural way, causing a burst in her abdomen?
Eek! I definitely would have loved a maggot warning at the start. I WAS eating lunch. Not any more 🤣
I'm sorry for your loss. Best wishes sent your way.
Did a superworm get away and become one of those darkling beetles? RIP...hope you post a follow up.
Dude you have to check your enclosures more often especially if you have that many tarantulas to look after. Sorry for your loss
I know they are really into their hobby but I find with ALL these tarantula channels they always have to many to adequately care for. With this population you would think caring for them would be a double shift full time job
@@kevinpatrickcarey3741I usually spend an hour or two every water day which is at minimum every other day and I only have 12 inverts right now and a Dubia colony
@Kevin Patrick Carey I swear he's gotten careless as of recently, like I swear there was a change in 2021-22
That enclosure make sure you sterilise everything. Throw the substrate out.
The egg sack went mouldy, maggots eat tarantula. It's obvious...... looks like atleast 3 weeks the egg sack has been there for moulding.
Sorry for your loss man☹️😟
May the earth send the earth tiger to heaven. I've always liked the earth tiger due to her aggression in the water videos... I am sad for her :(
I showed my zoologist husband and he said it was a wasp.
noo not that gurl :( shes been with us for a long time! heres my theory. She probably thought she got mated so she tried to make the eggs. but they formed wrong to it attracted flies when you open the door to feed your tarantula's. when you opened her enclosure and went to get her food, the fly probably got in before she tried to lay eggs, after she did the fly laid the eggs in her and probably in her eggs to leading the poor girl to die. Rest in peace gurl :(
do not place the tarantula on a another inclosure, otherwise the maggots may crawl into the other inclosure. 😢
I am so very sorry about this, Exotics lair. I have no idea what this could be but there is always a reason for an animal to die. R.I.P
I'm soo sorry that you have lost her 😔
sorry for your loss🤯😭
She lived for 7-8 there if you got her in 2016
That's probably the weirdest thing I've seen since I got to this channel like 6 years ago, that's really odd
RIP Dark EarthTiger! Also just wanted to say that I saw a(n) pink toed Tarantula at the PetSmart near me
I have seen something similar with ants Canada. I believe it could be because of those maggots
I’m sorry for your loss
Spiders have blue blood as their blood is based around copper instead of iron like mammals do. So that red stuff is not the spiders blood.
In any case you will have to strip down that enclosure and clean it out. So you will have more clues then. I know the frustration that comes with having pets die despite your best efforts. Animals don’t read textbooks and always surprise you even though you think you’ve done everything. My best guess is that the phantom egg sac took too much out of her. Sorry for your loss mate. ❤
i googled it and apparently they can lay eggs without being paired idk how but it's weird
So sorry for your loss.
I am very sorry for your loss EL. Another beautiful tarantula has been lost. Thankfully, we still have many others.
By the way.. PLEASE DO AN UPDATE ON PISSY!! THE BEST "COBRA" EVER
i'm so sorry for your loss exotics lair
Is it possible that she had some sort of complication when laying the sac and maybe got an infection or internal bleed somewhere? I'm very sorry that happened. I've been watching your videos and I don't have experience, but it looks to me like you really care for your spiders and are a great owner so I have no doubt this is just a sucky coincidence and there was no way you could have prevented it. Definitely sad I'm really sorry she was beautiful.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT THE FAN FAVORITE:((((((((((((
She may rest in peace...
RIP spidey, so sorry for your loss
Really sorry, that sucks so bad. this is crazy and all of a sudden. I hope you find out before I get my tarantula so I can not do it.
The maggots are creeping me out especially watching you put her on different surfaces and them wriggling around bleeeerk...She however is cool as
I hate seeing you lose another T.. especially since you had her since she was a sling 😭 Sorry for your loss. Hope you figure out what’s going on
Man really out here doing the good work and killing tarantulas left right and dead center.
I’m so sorry for your loss but I was losing my mind because we never saw the eggs up close in focus 😩
U can tell bro really loved that spider damn rip hate losing a pet
Females of many spider species die after producing the last egg sac. Unfortunately that's nature taking its course! It's really sad though, may she rest in peace in tarantula heaven.
I never had maggot in my enclosure before so Can someone tell me How the maggot got in there ? Unless a fly got in
Sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss. Rip, girl.
Sorry for your loss 😢
RIP so sorry for your loss
The maggots ate her! And the fact that you placed the dead tarantula that had maggots crawling off of it on top of another tarantula enclosure for them to drop down into!!! Lol nice bro!!!
The maggots came after clearly.
Bit concerning how many you’re losing recently, somethings not right.
Understatement of the year, man. Something definitely isn’t right.
Sorry for your loss ...
Maybe try and set up small cameras inside your tarantulas enclosure so if the next one dies without knowing why you could look back on the cameras?
Btw idk if the cameras might be big enough to see everything
I’m so sad she was one of my favorites. I’m crying right now.
Math: Assuming that you didn't get her in January, she's about 6 years old.
Rest in peace may all the memories be cherished
Rip. We will miss it.
They can have phantom egg sacs and wen they rotted the maggots came and ate here for btw so sorry for the loss. It’s so sad .make a video stripping that enclosure
The mother Mary of spiders 😢
Looks like some parasite could be the culprit
Neglect. That’s how she died.
This is giving me goosebumps 😢
NOO NOT HER SHE WAS MY FAVORITE
This is so strange..🧐 makes me question everything.
You've been losing a decent amount of tarantulas as late man, sad.
The videos always seem to be sick or dying spiders I hope he is taking proper care of them....
@@t.n.1116 by the looks of it, he does just bad luck I guess.
@@t.n.1116 well they r bound to die eventually u gotta think about it if he’s been posting content for 10 years all the spiders back then current day our bound to die around this time. If u buy a lot of pets at the same time they willl die a lot at the same time
Dave's little Beasties is great channel
Bro so sorry to see that. Must be frustrating. 🥺🥺😢😢
R.I.P 😢
Nature can be so cruel and freaky.
Im sorry for your loss i hope your doing fine
I have always heard for this species for females it's between ten and twelve years so she's a little young but she'd be almost eight years so not super young and not super far outside of what is normal.
I still say you might need to look into your substraite because Tom Moran talks about going through losses that sounds close to what you are going going through.
So sorry she died! I don't have a clue what happened!? Poor girl
Rip I’m sorry for your loss
Holy Jesus that's fucking brutal
The first time she lays eggs...may she rest in peace🙏🏽😭
Rest in peace
Jinkies! It looks like we're seeing the devastation caused by one sick SoB(referring to whatever killed the spider, not EL just to be clear).
Rest in peace the og dark earth tiger you gotta get a replacement one
the strangest thing i have ever seen was at antscanadas channel, where a phantom egg sack actually hatched!
Correct me if i am wrong but like a clownfish i think certain speices of spiders can change their gender to mate with themselves if they dont find a mate
Looks like something took a bite out of her.~~~Sherry
NOOOO MY FAV SPIDE😭😭😭
Do you have a college or university nearby where you could consult a scientist?
I had a pink toe tarantula and I bought a wood 🪵 so it would chill but little did I know it had a small venom spider and it killed my pink toe and the little venom spider had babies and it made noise at night. Rip my pinktoe
