Balfouri BABIES ARE HERE! 

Congratulations to the father, who did the deed and survived! 🎉 🎉 🕷💙🕷

Who immediately knew the sling count would be wrong? Lol! It's impossible to keep track when you're trying to catch them! Great job, Petko!

That balfouri male is beautiful, the colors, oohwee.

Hey Petko, I have quite a few balfouris and I have had two succesful eggsacks so far. From the research I did, I learned that it is strongly advised to leave the babies with their mom for at least 6 months, because she will feed them and they will have a significantly lower chance of survival if you separate them from their mom. However, I have also separated the babies from one mom as she did not take care of them and added them to the other mom with babies, and she took care of all of them. Also, when they were bigger, I added the slings to my balfouri communal setup and there, the bigger balfouris shared their food with the slings. So, my recommendation: Don't leave the babies on their own, have some older balfouris help them!

Love The Babies so darn cute my jumping spider laid eggs and they hatch now she lay another egg sac so more jumping spiders ..

Sweet! Check further info, as from what I know mother will share her meal with her babies feeding them, and they grow better left with mother, which is quite unique for T's.

I had a group of 5 monocentropus balfouri. After 3 years, I gave 4 away, because it was 4 males. 1 female left. And 3 weeks ago I saw, that she create a cocon. Thats my first time, after 20 years of having spiders, that I run into a new expirience and I very happy of this. I hope I will have a success and healthy spiderlinge.

This was a brilliant video and I always get excited when I see you’ve uploaded a brand new one, baby Ts are just the cutest thing ever but I think my big female stirmi is cute 😂😂

Hey Petko, for slings I would recommend a pooter, the little suction devices used to catch insects. I tend to have a bit of tissue at the bottom just to protect them and then just suck them all up.

Didn't realise newly moulted adult male balfouris were so attractive, wow!

i think that when the females stay in that 'trance' it means a successful pairing... ovbiously in the case here! congrats!!

I love the way they Web up all the enclosure.

love seeing the balfouri communal grow 💙

That blue was awesome

Babies are so many and so cute ! Love it !

That mature male is absolutely beautiful!

Congratulations, Petko. Although there nothing better than watching them grow up with their mother and witness her feeding them. I can understand your reason to remove them though if you think they can escape from the vents. But excellent result 😁

congrats on the slings...... Balfouri are so beautiful

The babies are always SO CUTE

Wonderful video with the Many Babies.👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩❤️❤️❤️

Love balfouris, babies are adorable ❤❤❤😊

BA BA BA BA BALFOURI BABIES ARE SO CUTE!! It's so interesting how they are not all at the same stages but came from the same egg sack. Thanks for the update Petko how many spiders total is this now in the DD? LOL a lot!!

Congratulations on the new babies 😊absolutely amazing as usual

Curious how they all clumped together in a corner of the new enclosure. Perhaps they need a bit of the webbing for them to feel more comfortable?

Great video and cute babies. Congratulations

Video idea: How strong is tarantula web? I dont know if it will fit on this Channel but i would like to see an experiment when you will collect a lot of tarantula web and form it into a thick string and see how strong it actually is! Scientists say that spider web is stronger than stainless Steel wich is impressive. You could Put some of these balfouris as workers inside an enclosure with solid strong anchor points So you will be able to easily collect all the web out. I think nobody has done that yet.

Nicely done, Petko! Congrats!🕷🕸😊

Great video! Love watching you love the hobby. A small bit of advice for the unhatched eggs. If you have eggs that look good but are unhatched put them in a seperate enclosure for a week or two. They just might take longer to hatch. Part of a survival strategy. Thanks again.

Yay, baby tarantulas.

Thanks for the update!!

Man i havent watched your videos nearly a year now.. Good to see you are still active. Lots of catch up to do here.

Aww they are so cute congratulations on the successful pairing so happy for you

Great job with this task! Im so impatient, i would've just shaken the whole enclosure over a bucket, then dumped the slings into the new enclosure 😂

M.balfouri spiderlings go through two nymph stages hence your confusion.

Congrats! Love your channel and thank you for all the helpful tips you’ve given for years!

They're so friggin cute *-*

Congrats on the new babies petko

Great video with the babies.

Congratulations 🎉

i love baby tarantulas o.o

If the ventilation holes in the big communal enclosure are too big for babies you are going to have a problem down the road

I love the babies and the mature male is stunning big things will happen for him, let’s try very hard not to get eaten he is about to have so many ladies, cigars at the ready!

Awesome Video dark den

You should invest in a suction collector for slings, it will make grabbing them so much easier

Like always love the videos. You are a really nice person.

Yay, babies! Congratulations 🎉

Congratulations🎉

Great vid Petko...

can we have an update video on the fishtank/shrimp

This would be the best time to Redo the 360 enclosure.... Balfouri web the Most when they are still small... This would be epic if you could set it up properly

I was just wondering, if you consider how good Balfouri are at being communal why is it necessary to separate the slings from the mother at all until much later, say when you're planning on breeding them again.

Thank you

Yay babies

Great news !

I can't imagine how delicate you had to be to get those babies out of there!

YAY! NEW VIDEO!

Great video

yay babies🎊🎊🎊

Balfouri babies are always nice! And goddamn they are cute when they're small 😍

That sexytime beat my record! Congratulations!

Hello great video information Petcko

Awesome man, the female is gorgeous

Congrats on the babies!!! Maybe next time she will give us a bigger bunch of babies. It is a good start though. 👶🕷❤

I have 5 tarantulas but i would never want to have these species 😅 its too much work,honestly respect man 👍

That was fun

Someone needs to invent a magical, super-delicate pipette that can gently suck the babies into a pipe for movement.

Congratulations 👍 When is the next junglelarium update?

maybe a good way to put hatched babies out will be take out the mommy and after a while leave something hard prekilled to eat, maybe they will take it and then good way to get them all . i will try xD

You should get some exotic ants, like bull ants

Yo when's the next full tour of the den

Nice Communal Petcko!

You look and talk a little bit like a mix of Borat and Mr. Bean 😅😁 Very nice!🥸

As you were counting i remembered Eight the turtle , how is he , how long has it been since the last update ?

awesome video!

Hi Petko, i love how much you love them and how excited you are. Thats what keeps me coming back every video. I was wondering if the different stages of the slings/babies is an overall indicator of their health?. Or are they like humans even those of the same age can be vastly different. Thanks.

Who else thought the pic of the video was a ultrasound at first lol

a real quicky LOL

Imagine if that's how quick humans can get pregnant. That's a world record there.

man I love spiders but I couldnt do what you do sticking your bare fingers in there lol

Babies!! 💙🕸🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷 🕸💙

I had a few jokes for the start of the video of him explaining what happened during the pairing.

When you print them in the communal I thought there were 5 in that video?

Petko Have you ever been bitten by any of your tarantulas or other animals? Have you ever lost (ie have any gotten out of their enclosures) a tarantula or other animals/creatures and never found them?

How do I go about ordering enclosure parts? I live in the u.s.

Can I recomend an insect aspirator for the little ones?

I bought a sling online and it came way smaller than I thought. How do I feed a 1 time molt Pterinopelma Sazimai?

Hello, are you sure that you can already add another, younger communal area to the existing communal area? as far as I know, there is a theory confirmed by several breeders that the original commune will not accept the new one... it would be a shame to lose new blood...

❤❤❤

I have also egg sac but i worry a bit is mabalf are nototrious on eating egg sac??

what a shame I didn't see this video before May 25th

nice :)

Do they also produce egg sacs in the communal?

What and how do you feed those tiny babies?

How are you hear watching this good work hello just kidding I'm waiting for you to find it and do this

live cool

Approximately how many times does a tarantula molt to get to a mature male or female?

Anyone ride think the thumbnail was a really messed up x-ray?

🇲🇽

💙🤍🕷️💙🤍🕷️💙🤍🕷️💙

How come you didn't take the sac out when you first noticed it?
