In this video I will go over the different types and classifications of tarantulas and give you a good head start on picking the tarantula that is right for you and some basic info on how best to keep each type of tarantula.

Nope you are NOT going.... lol
Just got my first T today at NARBC in Arlington. Had to go with GBB! Thank you for helping to educate the community Richard!
Getting ready to move into a new house and it’s been a while since my old days buying off Arachnoboards. Any suggestions especially in Northern California? Would prefer a shorter shipping trip for my babies
I want a tarantula pls
I work Local for FedEx and I can assure you that at least at my location, we care about your live animals! A reptile box went missing and my manager tore the entire building apart to find it. We make sure ya critters are well taken care of when put on the vans for delivery!
wow...that is very awesome! thanks for passing this info along....it is good to hear fedex cares about our animals too!
Thank you!
❤
Thank you 🙏
Means a lot bro, real talk
I love how much this channel has grown in a couple of months, especially when it covers a topic so strange to most people
Thanks. It has been mind blowing. It was just back at the beginning of November I was celebrating 10k and now its over 24k. And I've only been making videos for a little over a year. I never thought the channel would grow like this in such a niche community.
I'm sorry if this is a really random or annoying question, but do you know of any expos near Arizona?
@@philipingvar3652 I wish! My wife and I went to Sedona for our honeymoon and I've been eager to get back out that way but havent been able to make the trip yet. Hopefully one day though!
Production value is really high as well as informational value.
Best in the scene IMHO.
@@philipingvar3652 search for Phoenix reptile expo, most reptile expos also have tarantulas.
I honestly enjoy watching my Pumpkin Patch grow! I know people prefer a faster growing spiderling, but I will cry the day she no longer fits in her sauce cup 😭😭
I have mine literally in a McCormick spice bottle, and it's name is Spice!
Just rehoused mine after three molts in the tiny vile she came in. They grow up so fast 😢
My father and I raised spiders together as a child and he passed away a few years ago; after a big move into my first own permanent nest and some grief therapy, I'm ready to pick up the family mantle and I'm so happy to come across this playlist, thank you so much! 🥺💜
How has it been ?? Did a T end up working well ?
thats really nice, im about to order one with my dad
My wife got me a stripe knee for Valentine's day and started this addiction. Now I also have a gbb and tomorrow I'm picking up a Brazilian Black and a Golden Blueleg Baboon. I might need rehab.
lol
tell me about it, nov 2019 0 t's, feb 2020 7 t's but i can stop whenever i want to honest
My first t was an aphonopelma seemani (striped knee), named her Sylvia. Still have her and now after her second molt in two years I'm gaining confidence in my keeping ability. I am waiting for fear not to get back from the expo to order a few more.
Getting a T for Valentine's day definitely is a goal
david 84 my story is the exact same and even the dates are close 😂 so I feel what your going through
this hobby is addictive but i am managing to hang on with my single curly hair juvie, it is so hard to resist buying new T's
hey man! hows your curly hair doing? i just got my sling a week ago
@@ov9ko969 I've had it for 2 years and 3 months now and he's so much bigger now I'm currently trying to rehouse him as he has had a mold outbrake in his enclosure also congrats on the new T!
The tarantula hobby is very addictive = AGREE! Went to buy one, left the specialized store with 3 and now there are 3 more I really want.
Used to be deathly afraid of the idea of tarantulas but this whole community have really changed my perspective! I currently have a T. Vagans sling and I have a GBB as well as a Salmon Pink on the way. I am so excited to learn more and get hands on experience with these beautiful creatures!
This guy seems so friendly! I just want to hang out with him and have some beers :P I sometimes feel intimidated by big men like this, but he has such a beautiful smile and he seems like he would be so nice and give really great hugs ☺️ He strikes me as a Hagrid type- may look intimidating on first glance, but is probably incredibly warm and loyal. Plus he and Hagrid both love big spiders and providing education about lesser known creatures lol
I have a couple of ideas for videos
1) Tarantula fasting
2) Tarantula behavior during different seasons (spring, summer etc especially winter)
I really enjoy your content and after Tom Moran you are my go to guy for knowledge
I really want to get my first tarantula but everyone in my life is warning me against it, like if it were radioactive. Makes me want to get one more TBH
Did you get one
Well??
Well? I wanna know!
Did you get one??
Radioactive, you are joking right 😄
Just want to say, thanks for being so welcoming to beginners. There’s a lot of shaming, trolling, bullying, and gatekeeping with a lot of pets and hobbies. It’s incredibly refreshing to see someone be so welcoming and helpful/supportive. Your videos are so informative and I appreciate your willingness to share your experiences and expertise.
I just ordered my very first Tarantula after binge watching Tarantula care and species videos etc for 3 days. Not just 1 keeper but as many as I could find. I ordered from one of the breeders recommended on your site. Beasley Exotics. I am so excited and cannot wait to get my T! 😁😁 Started with jumpers that I now have 8 of that got me over my severe arachnophobia and now I'm addicted to spider keeping 😍
I started with my love of jumpers too! Now I have an E. Campestratus sling 🥰
@@_Pelagikos14 My Brachypelma hamorii should be here hopefully tomorrow. I also ordered a tliltocatl albopilosus that should be here next week too. I'm starting all new world beginner T's of course 😊😁
Ah this is so useful :D my first tarantula will be an arizona blonde in maybe a year
I would like to get an Arizona Blonde as well, one day. . . Living in Hawaii we cannot keep spiders or any other non-native species.
I'm very interested in this species also, I don't see them available much though. Not sure why, considering they're native to the U.S.
I would like a desert blonde too
No dislikes so far. That's how it should be. My first T. was a Chaco Golden Knee sling someone just gave to me. That was about nine years ago and luckily, she became a cute, big and peaceful female and I still have her. Totally recommendable to begin with.
Thanks a lot...lol...
I have 5 now since i first bought my first one :)
I cannot wait to move out so that I can get a few tarantulas myself. I live with my parents currently, and there is not much room. Watching videos gives me inspiration and knowledge so I can be a little more prepared. :)
That is awesome!
Thank you so much for your videos. It helped me take the leap and order my dream T's online. My C.versicolour will be here soon ❤
You are so welcome!
Totally sending this to my friend!! He is ordering his first T soon and you have really inspired him to start this addiction. Thanks for another great video!!!!
Is there a word for a tarantula addiction? Because I for sure have it.
Annnnnnd another comment, maybe talk about your favorite containers/enclosures for all ages and types.
love that idea! thanks
Man you channel is amazing, I'm glad to have someone so passionate about tarantula producing amazing contents like this, thanks!
2 minutes into the first video I've seen from this channel and already I'm subscribed. Well played.
Fear not tarantulas is an amazing company!!! Great t’s and people. Nice vid Richard 👍🏽
You helped ease any anxiety over my first t purchase back in October, and I’m happy to say I got 10 absolutely gorgeous t’s as of today👍🕷
Planning to get my first T ( Avicaluria Avicaluria) and I'd love to see a husbandry guide for these cuties!! If you could do that it would be most appreciated!!
The first d
Tarantula Tuesday video I everade was on the Avicularia...check it out here: th-cam.com/video/MFpNLnCIiWA/w-d-xo.html
They need alot and alot of ventillation if not they will die
@@gretchellestout3879 yep. I learned that the hard way
Hello. I actually have arachnophobia and I am working on getting over my fear over spiders so I said, what better way than having my own baby. So I got a guatamalan tiger rump. This helped me learn more about them and reduce my anxiety and I hope to provide the best for my sling! Wish me luck!
Good one again . If you're a new keeper or an old hand , I'd suggest a complete package from F N T . Got my first slings a month ago . Still nervous about them . Also Fear not will send you a short list of instructions . One says if you choose to unbox them in the bathtub make sure you plug the drain . Someone learned the hard way .
Just ordered my first Tarantula tonight. It should be here Tuesday. So excited!
Your production value is through the roof. Def the highest level in the TH-cam tarantula world.
Thanks!
My first ever T, a 1.5 female B. Klaasi, should be here tomorrow! Can't wait to meet her. Such a beautiful spider.
This really works as a first primer. When I first got into the hobby all the new vocab confused me, and it took some time to read more and learn to understand. This vid would have helped me when I first started out, so good job.
Thx for the amazing videos I’m a animal and reptile Mama I’ve never had a tarantula but I love them (the only thing holding me back is the Urticating hairs) I just LOVE THESE VIDEOS and am binging them rn and learning so much!
I'm getting a pink toe tarantula next month and I love your videos about them! I'm Learning a lot from you About them from uou and other people on TH-cam I even have a friend that had one and teaching me the thrm to! It's my first tarantula!
I just got 2 from fear not tarantulas yesterday. A Mexican Red Knee & A Brazilian Salmon Pink Birdeater. I cant wait to get them.
It never gets old to get spiderlings and see them grow up 🥰
That was a great video! I plan on getting my first T sometime soon, and this helped.
Just got my curly hair trueform spiderling today and super syked this video was great help!
I recently got 2 tarantulas, got them online. Watching all of your videos to learn all about em lol.
The second Dramamine is kicking in...I feel drunk...OMG. Still hangin' with you Richard. Up All Night with The Tarantula Collective. Talk about binge-watching
Tarantulas and scorpions were some of the most beautiful and fascinating creatures I've raised and nothing is more rewarding than seeing your 1-1.5cm sling grow to a 6-8 inch giant.
This guy is wonderful! What a helpful video. He explains everything and I like his laid back personality. He is chock full of very helpful information. I'm so glad he showed up in my recommended videos and I subscribed recently. Thumbs up!
Wow, thank you!
im so happy i found your channel i just got back into the hobby after i last my gooty a few years ago and now im trying to remember everything. I just went out and bought 4 slings 2 OW 2 NW and its been a while so thanks for the refresher, very cool channel
Wow! The way they eat! You know your stuff Sir!⭐️⭐️⭐️💯
Thanks so much for this playlist! I've wanted some type of pet spider or tarantula for years, and these videos are helping push me to that edge 🤣
My first sling I picked up last week and it's a Brazilian Black (Grammastola Pulcra) and honestly, I adore the little one;) no idea if it's a male or female yet--it is just a baby sling but..at the same time, it's just very chill and too cool already:) looking forward to when they molt for the first time since they've been home--thank you for making a video like this, it DOES help alot since this is my VERY first tarantula and of course it's a teenie baby one at that lol. Also, your enthusiasm in your videos--too awesome;) I love the high energy:)
Damn just as i joined the facebook group and got the ball rolling, perfect timing !
very cool! Happy Tarantula Tuesday...lol
@@tarantulacollective aha indeed it is!
Hey yall! Richard thanks for another great video! I'm about to get my T. SALEDONIA tomorrow I'm hoping. It's been cold so I've had to wait ..I'm so excited!
thank you for your nice hype vibe, friend
Gonna get my first tarantula very soon, turns out a fantastic store in my town, with love from Northampton uk 🇬🇧
I'm getting a curly hair tarantula for first tarantula as my pet straight from the breeder she is driving it right to me this coming Sunday! I couldn't be happier with this! She sounds like a great breeder for them! As she is gifting me this little cutie pie! ❤
Thank you so much for your helpful videos, ever since I was a child I wanted to on my very own tarantula. Today I finally took the leap and ordered myself a black Brazilian tarantula online. Thanks to your videos I feel comfortable and confident enough to start this journey and I look forward to learning from you in the future!
That is awesome! Glad you find them helpful and thanks so much for watching!
YES YES YES, this is the video/answer ive been waiting for! Private breeders recommended by the man himself! Thank u very much! Ill make sure my country allows the import of tarantulas before i buy one of ur suggested breeders. Again thank u very much!
Looking into getting one! I watched a bunch of videos and thank goodness i cane across yours! Keep it up man!
learned something thanks for this vlog.
got new ideas.
all the way from ph 🕷️❤️💯🇵🇭
happt keeping🕸️🕸️💯💯💯
awesome! thanks for watching and leaving a comment
Shocked this channel is not way more famous
I Love your word "If you are comfortable, your T also comfortable." This video is so helpful to me. Thanks Richard :)
You are on hell of a teacher! Very very interesting feed.
I saw your vid. Instant like button
thanks my friend!
I recently got my first tarantula in the mail. I ordered from Ken the bug guy. She came in perfect condition. I highly recommend ordering them online as you have a MUCH bigger selection of tarantulas you can buy. My pet store only has b. smithi slings nothing more
Love your nursery for the spiderlings!
I currently have 4. I have room for 6 more. I already know what ones I want and know where to get my adult enclosures. You are the reason I bought my Brachypelma boehmei 😍 I can't wait until it starts showing it's adult colors!
I love your videos ! They’ve been totally helping me learn all about Ts and helping me learn which would be best for my 1st one. ❤️
thank you! i am glad youfind them useful.....let me know which t you end up getting!
the_tarantula_collective I definitely will! 😁❤️
I got my first ever tarantula this week a Arizona blonde he’s a beaut 💕💕💕🕷🙌🏻
My first tarantula is being shipped today. It's a G. pulchra juvie for Jamie's Tarantulas. I'm a little nervous but I can't wait!
My A. purpurea sling grew out into a juvenile recently. I started out with an A. chalcodes sling I got at an expo last year and now it's 3rd instar and starting to look like a tiny tarantula now. My Pumpkin Patch has got so big now too and is starting to catch up to my purpurea in size. I'm so proud of all of them. I'm going with my roommate to an expo later this year. She wants to find a C. versicolor sling.
Awsome video as always. One thing I will add just from personal experience with ordering slings is I thought I was getting a 1/2 inch sling but it ended up being closer to 1 inch due to molting during shipping or they just put a larger sling in. Not a big deal but I have had to rethink the enclosure I was putting them in a couple times.
Just ordered my first Tarantula a Brackypelma Hamorii. Your channel has provided so much insight, inspiration and help. just want to say many thanks :D
I'm about to get my first T, this was a great video ad I love that you spoke about the longterm commitment! I'm a longtime animal rescuer who always pushes that angle. Whenever getting any animal as a baby...think 1st about it as an adult. And the years of care ahead of both of you.
And I can see exactly what you mean about quickly growing your collection in excitement! Very cool that you mentioned how much room they take up as they grow! I imagine a lot of excited newbies may not initially think about that when they fit on a shelf!
Great vid!
great video bro!
Just got my first 2 slings yesterday! Aphonopelma chalchodes and Brachypelma smithi ex annitha. And i can already tell the hobby is very addictive. i already want a Grammostola pulchripes! or a curly hair.
Got my first two tarantulas N. Chromats small slings can't wait to watch them grow. 😊
How big of an adult N. chromats enclosure
Hi Richard! Nice video again!
rock on...thanks for the support
That T-shirt in your shop? Gonna have a look :D
I have a G.Porteri 3/4” sling, as well as an A. Seemani juvie/adult. Both are great!
My first tarantula is gonna be here Tuesday! It's a brazillian black or grammostola pulchara sling, about the size of a quarter.
because of getting so addicted to the intro and the content of the collective
i just bought
1pc cm size auratum
1pc cm size fireleg
2 inches size chaco
hahaha and planning to add pmet and a shitload more
Dude your videos are amazing
I have a tarantula that’s a juvenile. She was gifted to me by a friend who couldn’t keep her. I’m not gonna lie, I want a spiderling to see it grow up 😂, the spiderlings you shared are so, so cute!
The BEST advice in this video was the last bit! I don’t think a lot of people think about the fact that this IS addictive and to be sure you’re not getting ahead of yourself for the animals sake!
Ordered my first T’s this Is very helpful!! I think
I’m getting a juvenile and a sling.. so I have 2 different housing options!
Thank you so much! My daughter will be getting one in about a month and a half, she is so excited!
I have been watching your videos and the information you give is amazing im a very new to the tarantula world I have one avic pink toe that I got for Easter/ mother's day gift from my daughter and my son in law I have always want tarantulas so they got me one and I have 2 slings coming tomorrow from fear not witch I got the website from watching your TH-cam videos im excited and nervous about the slings lol I have been watching lots of different videos on them so I know how to take great care of them when I get them! Wish me luck on my journey
I just got my very first T, a G. pulchra sling! thank you for sharing all this information, I'm going to watch the whole new keeper recommended playlist!
Currently binge watching your ideos because I finally bought my tarantula :3
Always wanted one growing up but my mom got me snakes, frogs, turtles instead. Now that I am older doing research and now I found a expert hope to learn more and be ready when I get my first Tarantula.
Thanks it really helps me
aweosome! I am so glad this was helpful!
I've raised a few T's since spiderlings, over 4 years now. Most are mature now. One Rosie, my first, which I raised as a sling, in now a juvenile.....female, I believe.....but an Irminia, large camel back, cancereides, Salmon pink bird eater, A Henzi, and Albicepts, Mexican Red Knee. I also have a few which I adopted from breeders and pet stores. Another mature female Rosie, and a Green Femur Euathlus. Also, a 7 legged Seemani, but very healthy mature female.
Funny you posted this today, just got my first slings today! They're all set up and I'm ECSTATIC.
bitchprint Me too!!!
Thank god i found this channel i got my juvenile brachypelma boehmei thanks for the tips!!
glad you enjoy the videos! Thank you for watching
Just got a pink toe the other day and she's already molted! It was incredible 🥰 dang, wish I was going to Tinley, but it was between that and getting a lavender albino retic. I had to pick the retic 😁
I just bought a pinktoe sling 4 days ago. She hasnt molted yet but she did make her first webbing. I cant wait to watch her grow into her name sake. XD
@@luvzanyandeverything mine has continued to grow, 2 molts with me thus far. My arachnid family has also continued to grow- I got a Haploclastus devamatha a while back, she is incredible! I just uploaded a video in which she has an incredible takedown (in Animals Do the Darnest Things if you're interested). I've been debating whether to get a Mexican Jade Fuego next or two bullsnake babies... it's a tough choice!
Thanks for a great vid. I'm just waiting on a shipping quote on a B. klaasi B. hamorii and a T. albo I'm super excited to get started in the hobby
Really good content. I thoroughly enjoy your channel, becoming one of my favorites as a current non spider person( but you have me considering one).
That's so cook that people that dont own tarantulas are watching my videos. How did you come across my channel?
@@tarantulacollective I honestly can't remember now how I first found you, maybe through looking for info on feeder insects?? I have fruitflies, Ispods and Cockroaches but it was quite a few months ago. For sure it was before Christmas and I have watched all of your videos since that time. I have even been checking out the Tarantulas at local reptile shows up here in Canada.You really make the spider hobby intriguing and I thank you for that, super job you do.
Love Love Love ... I have gone from Zero at the beginning of October 2019 to having 27 now. LOL...Scared of Spiders? I'm not Anymore ... I'm in Love
The most informative video for beginners
Thanks a lot! I appreciate you saying that.
0:45 *i spit my water out at how casually dramatic that transition that was*
THE TURN!!!
I know this was 5 months ago but boy really glad to learn from it. I have been lucky to have a pet store in my area that has taratulas and are very knowledgeable about them.
I only have 3 Versa color, Pumpkin patch and a Curly hair and they have be great fun. GOD BLESS and thank you for all you teach Us.
Great content as usual Sir. Not sure I am reading for slings yet.
lol..i understand...but theyre really not that bad once you get used to them...and theyre soooo much cheaper!
@@tarantulacollective I just started with my first Tarantula after much consideration. Thanks to your channel I just did it !!! A big beautiful Brazilian Black :-)
@@njb7319 oooooo....niiiiice choice!
I think you are in the same fb group as me, you told me if I'm comfortable my tarantula is comfortable
