It is a widely accepted fact that Petko never in his life ever said "sand" without also saying " for the texture".
Mama? Did you bring the shovel and pail for me to play in the sand? For the texture.
Why yes son. I brought all of your sand for the texture toys. I knew you would want them.
I'm waiting for that shirt!!

"I don't like sand for the texture, it's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere."

Should definitely do more videos like this very interesting how they are with different things in there enclosures
i love this kind of videos
I agree. If he did these types with three tarantulas of one species in this sort of style it would be so cool
What I enjoy most about your channel/videos is how friendly and thoughtful you are constantly.
Not to mention the excitement and energy he brings
he's like the early morning sunshine
Hi Petko, maybe you could try and put some anchor points in the enclosure with no anchor points? Might be interesting to see if she/he moves out of the burrow in favour of webbing up the enclosure. Just a thought.
Keep up the great vids! 👍
I was thinking this! Would be super interesting!
6:09 WOW that is a very loud stridulation. That is kinda cool ngl
Seriously! some loud hissing!
Its hilarious when after hours of sitting still tarantulas are like "yep its time to web" and then they go wild
Personally I am not surprised at all. As you've mentioned, this genus has an very opportunistic lifestyle.
Furthermore it seems, most of us keepers are in the wrong thinking that they prefer substrate to dig into.
There are reports of several species (mostly from the dyscolus complex) from Penang and Thailand to live several meters high up in trees and making theirself a home in the 'forks' of branches. Other records of the species 'electric blue' from Thailand have shown that they live within the gaps of huge rocks and rock walls. Some even live upside down in 'caves' and build their webs into the slots between the stone.
So how about some more interesting setups like these for more of your Chilobrachys? I'd definitely love to see them.
I think digging is the secondary instinct, the tarantula in the tank without anchor points tried several times to web, but gave up in the end and started digging... Very interesting 🤓
This reminds me of the time Tarantula Kat built her own trapdoor inside a Petco and went unnoticed for a month..Lived on escaped crickets and monkey chow. Impressive.
the next step, imo, should be giving three same Ts the same conditions: same size enclosures; same mix of anchoring points and substrate to burrow, same amount of time...
and see what's really their taste for burrowing or anchoring, statistically
I thought the same thing!
Time lapse was absolutely incredible. Really fascinating stuff.
Everytime I open an enclosure, I’m expecting special tarantula behaviour 😂 I‘m very aware, that they plot to eat me.
You, Tarantula Kat and Daves’s Beasties are why I now have 16 tarantulas! What species are these? LOVE your videos!!
And Exotics Lair! How can I forget him!!
he literally says the species in the beginning of the video
I couldn’t understand him, but thanks for being literally no help 😘
@@cindyedge9127 its also in the video description
@@user-ky3wp6gc5z I don’t see it there 🤷♀️
I generally do not leave comments, but I just couldn't hold back with this one! This was one of the BEST videos you've put out in a while, genuinely loved it from start to finish, keep it up!!
6:07 aaaaaand there they go some ten years of my life, lost forever
It's literally 12:47am here in my country India,but I enjoy your videos so time doesn't matters...
Hi Petko, make other experiments, please, it's so interesting. It's amazing knowing more about the incredible behaviour of our tarantulas.
I literally always watch your videos in my engineering class I always have snacks and chips ready for your upload
No wonder my brand new Ford doesn't work, the engineers are watching TH-cam in class lol
No it's just a Ford haha
The hiss! I had heard they could, but I'd never actually seen/heard it before! Wow!
Lol 😂 “hope they got permits!”
That third critter gave me a mini heart attack when it screeched at you!
Petko you made my day! Enjoying the video after a long day at the hospital. Thank you!
Hope you are all right!
@@TheDarkDen I'm okay. Just a long day of tests and appointments with my Cardiac and Pulmonary (heart and lung) Specialists.
Idiopathic Pulmonary Artery Hypertension. WHO group 1.
Google it. It sucks. Current life span is maxed out at 8 years. No cure and very limited treatment options.
I actually started watching your videos when I was admitted to the hospital with complications from PAH. One video of you feeding Linda gave me an irregular heart rhythm. She moves in a way I didn't expect and it scared me. The next thing I know my heart monitor is going off and 3 Nurses run into the room because my heart wasn't beating right. Lol. I tried explaining what happened but they didn't seem to believe me when I said I tarantula scared me. 🕸️🕷️🙄🤣
So it might be possible to scare someone to death.... Just sayin'.... 😅😉
That sucks, I’ll be praying for you, god bless
@@Plants-and-Ts Thank you! Have you startled by any of the famous Linda feeding videos? I am still afraid of spiders and tarantulas but not as much as before binging all of Petkos videos.
The videos don’t scare me to much but trying to ring feed my own tarantulas used to terrify me
You could record the time lapse with a red light, inverts can't distinguish the red spectrum and they perceive that it is still night time
AWESOME video mate love watching Tarantulas and Spiders web up their enclosures
"whatever you do, do it like crazy.You have 7 days."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
words to live by
That was very interesting seeing how each spider came out to look at what's possible then went to work creating the best home
For real Petko I hope you realise how much your passion for Tarantulas is helping a lot of people learn more about T. and their behaviours. Great job as always. The time laps was AMAZING !! Really immersive as I watched it three times to make sure to not miss anything activity in all of the enclosure. I would love to see a Live on twitch or YT of a new experiment like this one that you just did !
Because of this channel I found out that some tarantulas keep small humming frogs as pets, also thank you for making them look super cute without frogs 🕷
The webspinning segment must be one of the most fascinating and hypnotic of your videos to date :)
While I hope the technical issues stop because no one enjoys dealing with those…
Did anyone else enjoy corrupted Petko or was it just me?
I found it very humorous 😂
I loved it. It's like he's doing the robot. He should be corrupted more often.
WHAT'S UP BUDDY!
Hope all is well? also with the baby I hope you're enjoying fatherhood? It's an awesome feeling my friend...This was very very interesting Petko, it is pretty cool how they also webbed up their enclosure and they still find their way through it I always find that amazing without falling or without damaging the web no matter how far in the web they are they seem like they can get through it and remember their way back and forth that's pretty cool.
I DEFINITELY WANT TO SEE MORE EXPERIMENTS LIKE THIS ONE THAT YOU ARE DOING I LOVE EDUCATIONAL STUFF WITH THE SPIDERS?;. THANK YOU AND PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS OR EVEN MORE FASCINATED
What a fun, amazing experiment! I hope that you continue with this, as it’s really something, seeing three of the same species behaving differently. And I don’t believe it’s just about the environment. I think you would find, if you gave them all identical environments, they would still find ways to make it different; as it shows the personality & behavior is individual, not species specific. Each of us has our own personalities, as does every other living being. Love it! Much love to you, Shelbie =) ❤️🤍
Good morning from Australia, love your videos Petko.
I’ve never seen a spider dig before thank you for the Timelapse it was super cool loved seeing them make the encloses their home
So glad your experiment worked! Good to see you again too...hadn't been watching much lately...
great vid and wow what a loud hissing from the escapee ....
That was really cool to see the digging. I’ve never seen a spider dig before.
This was awesommee dude I love your videos and look forward to them after work every Monday sometimes I even come back later in the week and rewatch or share the videos with several people because I think they are just amazing, please keep up the great work petko I’ve been a fans for years and I look forward to more years to come.
I have my fimbriatus in a rectangle box. she's only about 2.5-3" but the webbing in her enclosure is insane! haha
Keep these great videos coming! I get so excited when I get the notification that you posted something new! More Friday videos please
Say what you want about handling spiders, but the real pros know how to. All the biologists that go out in the field they seem to know how to handle these things. Hey I’m not saying I’m brave enough to even hold a baby one yet, but it would make a dealing with the bolters a lot easier.
Awesome time lapse dude. This was a great video! Good choice of music too
Have read for years how Ts don't have intelligence and only act based on instinct. I think this video shows they are more intelligent than that as they obviously consider options and make decisions more than just reacting. Loved it, definitely looking forward to see more like this and might try to do the same when I finally get to doing some vids of mine. Keep up the great work 👏
You got me laughing with the permit line!🤣 I love when you run these experiments!!! Super fascinating Petko!
I LOVe your time lapse so we can watch what they do, how they act. So cool!!
Seeing your notifications make Mondays fun days! Thanks Petko!!
I only have one of these, but it eschewed burrowing in favor of a massive web labyrinth at maturity. As a sling I kept it in a gallon container with about 7" of substrate. He burrowed all the way down and I rarely saw him until he was near 3" I never knew they could stridulate. That is pretty awesome.
Man lost a roach in his home with no worry.. mans gonna send a spider roach hunting squad
I loved this video so much!!! Such big differences to the way they live from tarantula to tarantula 🤯
I always look forward to your Monday upload. I have a crazy work schedule so my days off are Mondays and Thursdays and I typically make sure to catch up on some TH-cam vids Monday night. Yours is always the first vid I want to watch. You and exotics lair are the ones that got me to start keeping T's in the first place, now I'm subbed to more keeper's channels than I can count😂. I especially love your channel tho and this was such a cool little experiment. The Chilobrachys Fimbriatus is such a beautiful species, I love the colors and the pattern on the abdomen is so cool looking with the stripes. Keep up the great content and have a wonderful week. I'm already looking forward to next Monday or Friday I should say, Yay!!! for bonus video, I'll definitely check it out after work. Lol
Ohh such an amazing idea, I'm about to get a Fimbriatus myself, now I will give it a lot of anchoring points. Saludos desde México
One of the best videos . I totally enjoyed watching the spiders make their nest . As well as the feeding . I often loose feeder bugs . It's funny when people help clean up and they find them . lol
Wow, they are so pretty! And it’s honestly pretty crazy to see which each did-always a joy seeing your videos they always make my day better :)
What an interesting vid! Love seeing the time lapse and how the behavior of the same Ts changes based on setup. Was awesome!
I wonder how the burrow one would react if you added anchor's to its enclosure now...
Love it!
Rad video! Love the experiment. Really cool to see different behavior from the same species.
My daughter and I loved the video, and screamed both snack time and happy dance for each feeding lol.
Heey Petko, REALLY NICE CONTENT!!!
You made something totally different and with a wonderfull result, thanks!!! 😊
Interesting. I was sure the middle one would choose to burrow too. And people say Ts are boring🤷♀️
Best part of my week, makes Mondays worth it!
Fascinating experiment. I love this idea. What a great idea to learn about these bolty little critters. I was mesmerized by their work. Thanks Petco! I loved this video!
Great experiment and awesome Ts, Petko. Definitely a must have sp. 👌
Love the time-lapse!!! That was so awesome! What enclosure is that? I like how it opens up! Keep up the great content!😁
Petko designs and builds his own enclosures, including the ones seen in this video
Omg! Very nice tree fimbriatus.
I love experimental comparative videos like this! Keep them coming!
love this idea. lots of love from newfoundland!!!!
I always get amazed by their webbing. Perfect video after 4 days of complete chaos.
Great stuff! Also, you pick the perfect music to accompany the time-lapse portion.
More of this scientific content, please. Enjoying your turn from hobbyist to behavioral entomologist (arachnologist?).
that's amazing to watch I really enjoyed that. 💙💜🇬🇧
About time petko, good to see you back👍
But I never left xD
@@TheDarkDen How are your balfouris? Everytime i see them on your or EL's channel, I get the impression they behave like new worlds, and also look like one xD
You should try adding some anchoring points to the enclosure with only substrate and see if they will all choose to web and be out more
Thank you for the experiment, loved it
Loved this style of video wit the 3 different style enclosures wit the same species
Great video ,very interesting with the different set ups petko 👍
Loved this episode! I'm always interested in research, and your idea of substrate vs. anchor points was insightful. Your babies did not disappoint. Maybe some time you could replicate to see if the same outcome is observed. So cool.
You are an amazing TH-camr, you are constantly checking to make sure that we can all see exactly what you are doing! Petko you make Mondays the best day of the week, you have taught me so much I will be getting my tarantula soon, not entirely sure if anyone knows the best tarantulas for first time beginners! ❤️ 🕸🕷
If you check other older videos you have a beginner guide that Petko recorded about 3 years ago, I believe that he mentiones some species for beginners.
@@Kotach Thank you for good advice, I am definitely watching those videos tomorrow! 😆
One of my favourite videos so far. Hopefully more of these types of experiments to come.
Amazing Tarantula species 👍🏼
Great Video! really cool Experiment 😃
You can see the moment the one the right said “you know what I’m going to just burrow.”
More time lapses please. Your videos and experiments are amazing.
Love the video and thoughts on a video with hissing cockroaches as new feeders and feed a few big boys/girls.
That was awesome to see what each one did amazing experiment thanks so much
Great video. Neat they just adapt
i just love this kind of video
Enjoyed the experiment & the way you did the video. Please do more! Thanks.
Really cool idea, definitely will try to do that myself!
Roach sees catch-cup & thinks, "What's the worst that could happen?" He decides to make a run for it... :D :D :D
I love this video! I love my fimbriatus, too, they're such amazing webbers 😍
@7:08 You can dig like CRAZY or Web like CRAZY you just can't RUN LIKE CRAZY!!!!!!! LMAO!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🕷🕸🕷💗💗 ... Out of all of my Ts I would have to say this is my favorite.... Mine has both substrate to dig/burrow along with many anchor points and has webbed extensively in her enclosure. She also has the BEST feeding response yet they are soooo FAST!!!! Great Video.....
Yessss! What a interesting video.
I love them all but learning behaviour is something I really enjoy 💚
Amazing!!!! You should do more experiments like this! Really interesting and entertaining too!
I love the way u made a time lapse of their webbing. this is a great content
Experiment success!
Nice!
I have also found that some Fossorials like the C. fimbriatus DO prefer to web up instead of burrowing, if given the choice. Making them just some sort of Semi-Fossorials i guess..
Always awesome videos!
rly awsome video. i love the idea to offer same type of tarantula different enviroments and see what happens. so cool
Id love to see you get some tailess wip scorpions and vinegaroons and some more scorpions
That was very interesting and we have an escapee yyeeaahh.... such a long time without one and a ”talkative” one 😁
Seems they prefer outside webbing house over digging. I wonder if that applies to the entire species?
FABULOUS VIDEO! Great idea! Loved it!
Loved the concept for this video. Fascinating.
