Building THE DEVIL ARMY....and other stuff 

That's going to be one weird episode of the Dark Den... 'Another enclosure!' and it's a fifteen minute asmr of Petko assembling a crib from IKEA.

Speaking of babies - I remember a few years ago when I discovered your channel and you still filmed in your apartment. Back then I didn't fear spiders but I wasn't as interested in them as I was as a little girl. Now it's 2021 and my Hyllus diardi are having their first eggsack hatch and I'm such a proud grandma. Thank you for bringing me into the hobby, I hope you will have fun with your spiders for many more years to come.

Maybe fill the room with the stairs down to the Dark Den with fan works, so you can see it during the "transit" to work!

What a lovely name! Cant wait to see baby Erika teaming up with you on the Dark Den!

And.....Massive CONGRATULATIONS on getting married and being a pops to a beautiful baby girl, she's lucky to have a fun daddy like you. Patenting is AMAZING, ups, downs, but the unconditional love you'll feel and give is the most beautiful feeling in the world. I'm so happy for you and your wife 💜❤️🥰

Erika..beautiful name. I have no doubt you will be an amazing father! Congratulations 🎈🎉🍾🎊

Your modesty is very flattering, but sell them if you can! Hard work, or easy work, is still work! And it should pay off!

When you run out of "Wall Space" for posters and things you can instead move to the ceiling !!! the ceiling is plenty of fresh space to put up art, posters, pictures and more !!

taking the thumbnails to another level , i see u petko !

Lovely name Petco. She will do great with you as a Dad I’m sure. Congratulations to your family.

ooooh u shouldn't turn the beetle cocoons around like that :O and yeah, i have to replace the substrate too from time to time xD

congratulations to you and Maja on the birth of you're daughter your going be a great daddy, hopfully she will love tarantula's like daddy does 😊

Sell your Centipede babies Petko, you’re a business and a father! Make hay while the sun shines! 😁

How about using the ceiling for your posters and stickers since wall space is occupied with shelving. I see alot of animal based RU-vidrs use it for stickers, posters and fan art. Erika is a lovely baby name. Very happy for you both.

Petko, I really think you should separate the snails and the beetles because larvae of the majority of bugs are carnivorous and will eat whatever they can get hold of.

Erika is my all time favourite name!!!!! 💕 how amazing! Bet you can't wait to be a dad, and I bet erika will be having lots of tours of the dark den, come so far since your sofa in your apartment!!, please send love to maja hoping all is going well for her x much live from a small island in England 🇬🇧 x

So I finally done it! I ordered a B. albopilosum sling today. My first tarantula.

Elvira's new outfit is absolutely gorgeous! My regalis recently melted and just got her yellow colors... so exciting!

Concerned for the devil babies like they are his own children. I like it

You could try hanging stuff on the ends of the animal cabinets that we can see from the camera angle?

It's so surreal seeing a mates print on this channel haha

Beautiful name choice for your daughter! (Won’t spoil it for anyone who hasn’t finished the video yet)

You are the best! 🤌

Love your content bro. Keep up the good work

love dark den been a subscriber for ages 😊 thank you for all the content and education 🙏

BOJACK !!! Erika is a sweet name, congratulations i am happy for you two !

Oh my gosh, congratulations!

I recently got two Scolopendra Polymorpha from the Daytona Reptile Expo in Florida. I used to have two Scolopendra dehanni in the past but they both passed away. Extreamly jealous of your blue leg dude!

You can’t do that to me! Now I gotta skip through because I’m so eager to know her name 🤣

Shout out to Alex from one Australian tarantula lover to another, awesome picture! It's a pity I don't do Facebook!

Either once you see they can eat or color up a little bit more usually the mom won't eat them but that's the normal time for removal

please get a millipede

If you runs out of wall space start hanging on the ceiling

Ahh yes, centipedes man I am so scared and amazed watching this video.

Sweet name. You will be a great father!

The ending 😍🥰🥰 soooo sweet !

Molt panel AKA nightmare wall.

Hang stuff on the ceiling

The cork background does not seem to be a good idea. Appears to mold easily. Alternative background idea: attach a poster/picture to the back and/or sides of the enclosure, on the outside. I used to do this with my fish tanks.

Hubba hubba, spreading spider legs..

do snail shells grow? or kind of moult with the snail?

You’re going to Budapest ? watch out for the Black Widow 😜

hey petko hopefully I spelt that right. I was wondering how you made your labels on your enclosures thx

Baby centipede is called nymphs.

Petkos a dad lol gotta be ready for them dad jokes

Does that work with scorpions sheds as well?

I've missed the fact that you and your wife are expecting a baby girl. Congratulations to your wife and of course to you 💞 Erica is a fabulous name. All the best for you three 😃

Its funny I love watching your videos but i have an extreme phobia of everything with more then 2 legs 😂

Have I ever enjoyed a video of you more than this - no. My new roommates (since 3 months) told me that I have to move out today even though there was no sign of any discomfort, thoguh it seems the chemistry between us doesn't work out. And I held back on them keeping tarantula because one of them was arachnophobic. Wish I kept them now ...

the molt of fame

Congrats on the tiny human!

Love the thumbnail! Not over the top at all! 😉😂❤️

what death metal band is that on your t-shirt? :)

Erika Petkovic. Very melodious 💞

Erika - arachnids, coincidence? I think not 🕷❤️

My husband ALWAYS wanted to Name our Daughter Erika, but in Germany it is an old Name. I only know elderly Women with the Name Erika. But we liked old Names so we decided to name our daughter Martha. Gratulations to this great name!

How long this tarantulas live?

My Grand Grandmas name was Erika. And best wishes from Germany for the litle one

👍☝️

PETKO! I propose one of two, if not both suggestions here! Either get yourself a new tarantula around the time baby is born, and name it after her (though if it's a male GUH..or maybe get a sexed sling? yeah..that). OR, if there are any mommy spooders who might have hatching babies around that time (or even maybe after), name one after her and hope it's a female HAHA

Love from Philippines 😍

super :) :D

I love centapid I hope I got 1

Not me waiting 3 hours for Petko to upload 😂

Brazil loves you. You could put subtitles in Portuguese.🙂

Put some posters in your bedroom,

Adoption ftw!

I seem to remember the Germans having a song about that name.

not egg... cocoon.

Hearing about your daughter brings tears to my eyes. I've been watching your content since the very first apartment den. I'm so proud of how far you have come. I know you will be an amazing dad to the little one.

How in the WORLD did this dude just Get me Excited about and to like GRUBBS? I swear Watching his videos helps my Mental health somehow Such a Good Man Enjoying the Simple Things in Life.

Humans: you are my kid, and I love you very much Centipedes: *Glad I saved room for dessert*

I love how gentle the centipede is with her babies. I'm so used to seeing them sprinting and thrashing that it's pretty cool to see them being so protective.

Congratulations on the name!!! Also maybe if you cut the logos off the cans and flattered them you could arrange and attach them on a wall or table.

Molt board: exists Felix: *Is this a branch?*

"we've decided our daughter's name and it will be" and the video starts damn you petko if u don't tell me the princesses name by the end of this video I am going to cry 😂

You can always put the pictures on the ceiling if you don't have anymore wall space.

I remember reading about the world's oldest spider when she was found dead. She was part of a decades long study done by Dr. Barbara York Main on a population of female trapdoor spiders that lived in close proximity to each other in Australia. It's definitely worth looking up, really interesting stuff!

“I’m raising a centipede army!” You got some stones my man, I just couldn’t. My skin’s crawling even looking at that writhing mass of aggressive death-dealers. Had pretty severe arachnophobia growing up, overcame it eventually; I’d rather have a tarantula sitting on my face than live with centipedes! Hat’s off to you, thanks for another great upload.

You and your daughter are going to be an amazing team, you will teach her all about nature, she will choose odd names for your animals, and you will be forever building things for her! 😇

You should also never remove entire substrate from a snail enclosure, cause the snail also harvest beneficial bacteria back from the substrate :)

That is just awesome man. Never seen this before. The baby centipedes.

Do not disturb the scolopendra, leave her alone or else she's gonna eat all the babies.

Aww what a lovely name you have both chosen 🥰💜 . Congratulations on the little centipedes also 😊

As someone with the same name, it's a GREAT name for your daughter :D

We need more uploads!!! 😭😭😭 Sad that its only once weekly! But i do understand that you need to spend time with ur wife and future kid! 🙌🏽

OMG I'm so excited for Erika's arrival! She is already so lucky to have such a cool dad!

Finally a person that can pronounce Hungary's capital properly! Lovely! ✨🕷️

I remember those steel drink cans from when I was a kid. And to open them you had to peel the tabs right off. Little fucking thumb guillotines. When the aluminium one were introduced the old steel ones became pretty valuable to kids as they were a vital component in tennis ball cannons.

Ahhh Petko I am so excited for the both of you. Congratulations on the coming of your new baby girl Erica. You are going to be an amazing Dad!

Another great video man. We can’t wait to meet Erika!!!

Hello great video update and unboxing Petcko

The mother is able to regurgitate small portions of food for her growing offspring, but between 1-2 weeks after hatching the progeny capitalize on this food source by eating her alive. Typically, as opposed to other females in the population.

hi! i love your channel but there are a few issues with your snail care: the environment and substrate need to be far more humid and damp for proper growth, cucumber is also a terrible food for them as its made up of just water and i would not recommend hatching any of those eggs as your fulica are quite small and they will produce weak offspring that only live a year or two which could have been what happened to your other snail. I highly recommend joining the GALS (giant african land snail) facebook group with over 14k members for up to date husbandry since it can change quite frequently depending on the species :))

Sunbeetle larvae (Pachnoda marginata peregrina) need a diet of 80% leaves and only 20% rotten wood. My beatle larvae eat like 20liters leaves a month so make sure you add enough dead leaves. oak and beech leaves and wood are the best, they contain the most nutrients.

Wait until the centipede babies leave their mother and have colour. Momma protects them until they are ready. Centipede mommas are amazing.

I'm a new subscriber I want to know if you own a bird eater

Congratulations petco and Maya ❤️ sending love from Windsor Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

haha damn i expected linda :P but erika is fine ;)

Lovely name for your daughter
