The last P. irminia is very confident and absolutely beautiful. I have never seen an arboreal T came out of their hide and stroll around instead of bolting into their hide when the lid is being opened.
I used to be scared to death of spiders. I feel differently now. They really are just innocent, fragile, furtive little creatures. Like a mouse. All they want is to be left alone and allowed to live their own, simple lives. Amazing little animals. Thinking about the different type of symmetry their body plan uses helped me not see them as "scary". They work more like your hand, no single "front". Kind of of little crabs, and they don't scare me.
I definitely agree with what you said about don't think of it as new world vs old world. My Poecilotheria Miranda is very gentle whereas my Nhandu Chromatus is the devils spawn.
Received my P. Irminia sling last week as I was informed it's a good introduction to moving to old world species. Extremely beautiful and hoping it's a female..also incredibly fast. Great stuff Dave.
Brilliant video Dave and brilliant rehousings, stunning species the Hati Hati and the sun tiger, overall a super job by yourself and camera lady, the videos never disappoint Dave.
Great job Dave!!! I loved those Hati Hati's. I believe you're right about the colors in them. I love the irminia's as well. I have a sub adult female in which I never see. She stays in her cork bark. Tyfs God bless you
I had a hunch one of the irminias was going to be a bit stubborn. Very smooth rehouse session, with very pretty spiders. Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)
Awesome rehousing. It's amazing how you keep even the ones who are known for their defensiveness so calm. Everytime I think about the Chilobrachys fimbriatus (she's crazy even at 1" 😭😂) I got my stomach drops for a second; so, I march on over here to learn. Thanks so much!
The first new world spider, looks like she is wearing designer shoes! If I could afford a pair I would buy them! The second new world spider, thinks she is getting some food. I do believe they are smart enough to figure that out. I have seen people feeding them and then they scream at how fast they grab their food. I don't think it's a good idea to scream, it scares the spiders and they end up abandoning their prey and focus on that scream. Sometimes I think the spiders think the prey is the one who screams and not its terrified owner. I really like how calm you are and gental. It looks to me that as long as everyone is calm it goes smoothly. I know it's a big scary spider but, we are so much bigger then they are. To me, they are probably more afraid of us than we are of them. But aren't they fascinating?
Great video Dave I've only got the p irminia which I rehoused recently and she was good has gold, because they can be defensive I was a bit worried but there was no need to panic.thanks for sharing.
Love this video Dave. Those arboreal enclosures worked out great and turned our perfect ... my opinion. The transfers of the Tarantulas went very calm and they sure are some healthy beauties.
another fine video with all the encouragement to succeed from you PROFF.-- the usual great information all filmed by the wonderful amazing camera lady. many thanks
Dave I always think I'm caught up on the videos and bang here comes one I haven't seen Im glad because I've learned so much from. You thats really helped me with my Spiders and also by watching the camera angles and position the way camera lady films its helped my camera skills improve love the video like I said I always learn so much Many blessings to you both🙏 ❤
I’m guessing new world is the America’s and old world is Africa? Btw I watched your Miami wolf spider mating video, loved that one. Very interesting, like a David Attenborough video lol. Made me laugh when the male was having a wash and a stretch afterwards 😂
Very smooth rehouse Dave 👌! I agree with your hunch that maybe the colours on the Hati Hati maybe is different genders. That Irminia is FEISTY!! All in all great video Dave! Absolutely packed full of information I never knew, I swear it feels like I learn something new every minute of your videos! See you Monday, looking forward to seeing your reply since you almost always reply!
Hello!! I am new in this hobby i just try to learn how to care for these animals and i love your videos!! There are lot of videos here but u know how to deal with them even the more aggressive animals stay chilled when u move them to a new home if i compare that with some other peoples videos here they bolt and are very aggressive but u keep them chilled!!! U are the real spiderman!!! Thanks for all your videos u give me much to watch and learn!!
I did enjoy it! Thank you! I have a P. ecclestiasticus that was similar to your last irminia. She did NOT want me to push or prod her from her old enclosure to her new. Out came the fangs and she would turn and nail the paint brush! She wanted to kill! So I finally lifted her up and into her new enclosure...happily munching away on the offending paint brush...LOL! Anyhow, great video!
You have luck with the type of supstrate from your woods. If I made enclosurr like that plus with few holes on the top, it would explode with mould within two days
Hello Dave, i just discovered your channel, and i love your videos. i really appreciate how calm you are with your spiders and how careful and gentle you are moving these darlings. I got a C. Hati hati in december and just love them. looking forward to your next video
wish there was somewhere close buy for me to get some natural stuff. i only have a few slings and one juvenile so im all good for now,. with enclosure setups . do you have the Trinidad olive/ gold ? if so can you do a care and setup video on them ? love the videos. your my main T youtuber now . thanks for the great content.
magnificent! i got a hati hati and its really really blue and since you said those might be males im a little worried! 😅 just gave it a 20x20x40cm enclosure and it molted recently in there too. but getting the old molt out is an impossible thing to do and its only out in the middle of the night! 😅 also my irminia was the same size and i thought she was a subadult until i discovered her sitting on her first empty eggsack. but you are totally right! the most important thing with fast spiders is to be calm, patient and you habe to be prepared if something does not go according to plan!
Hey ... absolutely love your videos .... I started 2 months ago this is my current collection (please excuse spelling 🤣) So I have ..... 2 lasiodora parahybana Psalmopoeus pulcher Psalmopoeus Cambridgei Brachypelma Klaasi Nhandu chromatus Pterinopalma sazimae Acanthoscurria geniculata Davis pentalauris Hapilosus sp. Colombia Nhandu tripepii Tlilticotal albbipolosus Cyriopagopus lavidus Pelinobius muticus Pheeeeew 🤣🤣🤣
(I find it ironically funny that your give us all this information on your various spiders about speed and possible bolting and aggressive behavior. Then, because of the superb way you handle them, we hardly ever get to see actual demonstrations of what you've cautioned us about. 🙂)
Dave as always great video sir and camera lady! I recently asked about P irminia being a good transition from NW to OW T's. I've taken your advice to heart and I have started the search for a female. I will be attending a show this weekend. My hopes are high but my expectations are low on finding one. If one is not available I hope to see a C versa female or a NW dwarf species.
A fantastic video Dave. I've just received a P. Irminia sling and looking forward to watching it grow. It's such a small sling though. Will be looking to get a juvie of these also. I love those enclosures or tubs. Where are they from mate?.
2000 more subscribers than I saw last week!🤔😉😇 I assume you're from Australia or New Zealand area??area? And you should add a piece of crinkled paper towel to the corners of the tub because they're much more likely to go into the paper towel then fly over the top edge of the tub with the paper towel there!😉😇
@@daveslittlebeasties Either way I like yout content a lot! I myself have a nine month old green bottle blue that just molted and I recently caught outside a jumping spider that's just a hoot! It just pounces on those crickets.😬 Plus, I'm not afraid of it like I am the green bottle blue for the various. reasons.😝
I think it may be the other way around. I tend to see in asian arboreals that often darker juveniles that almost looks adult tends to be females, but of course, that is not 100% but ime often males are the browner ones even when subadults You are right. An asian arboreal that is bolting is often set up wrong. If set up right theyvare very hard to get them to leave their burrow
How quick should a tiny .5inch hati hati sling start webbing or making dirt curtains. It fed and I caught it drinking but it really has not made any web since I got it as freebie few days ago. Maybe I should add some moss or something. It had cork piece propped in one corner but its soo tiny and in such a tiny pot. I don't wanna jam it with too much stuff in there and I need a microscope to see what is going with it.
I've always wondered but never asked why do a lot of tarantula keepers use the 3, sometimes 4, enclosure system where the slings are in a small tube then when they get bigger they get moved into a bigger enclosure then they get moved into a bigger final enclosure when they become adults. Why do so many people do this? I've got my enclosure setup for my next tarantula and was planning to keep it in the enclosure for a while and then move it into a bigger and final enclosure when it gets bigger, am I planning this incorrectly and I should be doing a 3 stage enclosure move?
It's easier to monitor slings in small enclosures, and anecdotally, people say that small enclosures improves their growth rate too, as they are less reclusive. For spiders that get very large, I usually have a sling, juvenile, and adult enclosure. For smaller species, sometimes I go right from sling to adult (for terrestrial dwarf species) or juvenile to adult (for arboreals). The fact that the juvenile enclosure takes up less space and is cheaper may be a contributing factor in why more people don't immediately upgrade from sling to adult.
He makes it look so easy. He's a spidey whisperer.

Didn't realise how gorgeous Hati Hati's were. Slick rehousing and thank you for showing them off.
They just get better as they mature 👍
The last P. irminia is very confident and absolutely beautiful. I have never seen an arboreal T came out of their hide and stroll around instead of bolting into their hide when the lid is being opened.
These spiders are all very comfortable 😂😂👍
Dave, I blame you for all my new spiders, lol. Great video as usual. God Bless.
OOOH im in trouble again 😂😂👍

Cool its a different way of thinking 👍👍👍
You have luck with the type of supstrate from your woods. If I made enclosurr like that plus with few holes on the top, it would explode with mould within two days
Mould often stems from poor ventilation my friend 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties ventilation is cross(bottom and top of the sides) plus top one. Must be that coco peat is full of fungi and moss cells
@@vukpik Yes coco fibre is very prone to mould which is why I dont use it horrible stuff😂👍
