Monocentropus balfouri 30+juvies to rehouse all together uploaded 

This one had everything: An enclosure balanced on the corner of the table, fingers in the enclosure and spiders doing runners all over the place! Bloody brilliant!

Dave you should have called this one the great escape 🤣🤣🤣 x

Every time I come to this channel, I go, "woah 30-some minutes! Well, maybe I'll just watch a bit." And then I end up watching the whole thing because it's just so mesmerizing.

Man ppl that love spiders are some of the coolest ppl on the planet

I think your videos offer the most accurate information and the best videography of any I’ve tried, and without heavy metal or some other completely obnoxious background music! I want to shake some of the hobbyists the second I click on their videos! And there is so much dangerous misinformation flooding RU-vid that I’m amazed that they’re able to get away with it. I’m just very grateful for you and the fabulous Camera Lady. Please keep the videos coming.

Man!! It's 1:30am where I am near Toronto Canada, and this video popped up. Imagine my excitement! I get to stay up later than expected. Hehe.

Omg I made myself keep watching with anxiety rising. It was fascinating and your narration is really relaxing and certainly made it easier to make it through, but wow, when they would start climbing out of both tanks my feet were tapping at a million miles an hour.

I'm an arachnophobe and I'm grateful for your videos. I'm learning a lot in an attempt to handle my fears. I've even taken to pausing your videos at times and sketching out these incredible creatures. Thank you so much!

Your calmness while they are running all over the place is amazing. I would be dead.

This next levels of rehouse, oh god how can you be so calm, master❤

What a beautifully healthy communal 🕷 🕸 🕷

I know that I will never be comfortable to remove debris with my bare hands. I use my long tongs, even if they're just Brachypelma and Grammostola. Not taking any chances of an accidental bite given how food motivated they are. A balfouri would possibly be one of the very OWs I'd consider acquiring. Nice job and once again major props for not panicking or anything. Goes to show you've worked with these enough than you can almost predict how they'll react to your actions. Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)

That was so cool and entertaining to watch 🤣🤣🤣. Made me laugh quite a bit. Thanks for this nice start of the week. 👌👌👍

Wild that I am SO stressed watching them all escaping over the side of the enclosures repeatedly and you're the one actually doing it and just aren't bothered at all, haha.

dave being chill while 10 balfouris are on the run is something i yearn for

Great video as usual. It was fun to see some trying to escape while you caught up the others. I thought it would be absolute chaos, but with your calm, cool demeanor, as usual it all worked out with no drama. Thanks, it's amazing to see so many together like that, especially when you turned over the bark. :)

It's the spider version of the classic Clown Car. They just keep popping out.

There are 32 in all. You accidentally counted 27 twice because there were like 3 trying to escape at the same time. I have arachnophobia and I watch these and other videos to try to desensitize myself. I know it’s helped me too. I’m from North Carolina in the US and I saw a HUGE fishing spider on the side of our house one night (there’s a creek right beside us) and yes I screamed and ran BUT I went back outside and took pics of it to later identify it. And I was so proud of myself that I did so correctly. A year ago I would’ve never gotten that close to even take a picture. It’s eyes were shining white in the flash of the camera. Granted I have very small hands but this spider was as big as my hand is and I’m not exaggerating in the least. You know everything about spiders so I know you believe me on that one. I appreciate him going back to the creek to eat up some minnows cause I haven’t seen him since.

It’s funny how she stood back with the camera when they started appearing on the table😅 I’m terrified of spiders. Have had arachnophobia since I was a child. Somehow addicted to these videos lately though. I know they’re misunderstood creatures.

“It pays to be a little bit careful with your fingers” proceeds to dig by hand😂😂😂❤️

When you lifted the bottom. I was like "Shit the bed"!

You both have such calm, capable energy, never lose patience or confidence, and always handle your spiders with aplomb. This is how it should be done! Very impressive work - glad you are committing it to video on RU-vid, to help educate (and entertain) others - you are a great example to follow.

Love the photography, excellent clarity. The little chuckles in the background make my day. You really seemed to have your hands full this time lol. Awesome how many there were!!

Ah yes, that small enclousure full of spiders, just barely half over the edge, just what I need to overclock my anxiety

I'm in awe I mean I do know they can be kept communal but this is breathtaking. Thanks for sharing and greetings from Mexico

Crazy how fast they are lol. What's even crazier is this huge wolf spider I had in my place and it damn near teleported right in front of me. It's menacing lol

Never knew that many spiders could live that close together.

That's love. Him and his spiders. Her and her spiderman.

well... I like spiders at a distance... and you've provided me with a way to enjoy them... at a distance...thankyou for sharing..

Dang that cricket won the hunger games and just got discarded for his efforts.

"So we need to be very careful" Sticks his hands in there anyway 😅

lol i love how they all come out staring at him like “wtf bro”

Hello from New Zealand, Dave. We unfortunately can't keep any of these beasties here (apart from our local tunnelwebs), but me and my sons watch every video you make. You've sparked a real interest in my boys that I'm sure will stick with them. Thanks for producing such fantastic, informative content!

“Watch your fingers.” Hey says as he proceeds to haphazardly use his fingers to pull up the webbing.

this is great. well done. love how you told them off like theyre naughty puppies

Would love to see another after dark video of tarantulas in the nighttime for your collection.

13:20 you hear the spiders tap on the desk, that‘s so cute

When he didn't go after the spider that was free right away, heart dropped into my stomach.

this man's chill is beyond compare.

I think the sound of the scurrying is actually the scariest part of this for me!! 🥺They are beautiful when standing still/moving slowly. 😂

I'm terrified of spiders and torture myself watching Dave's videos lol- but this was like herding kittens 🤣

I can hear them saying, “Hey! We worked hard making that!!”

I usually don’t have anxiety or fear watching these spider videos but this one had me all over the place!!! Heart pumping! Jumping! Screaming! Closing my eyes! lol it was a nice surprise 😂😂 thanks for that, Dave!

This mans just shoving his hand in these spiders homes. This man fears nothing.

Growing up my sister had a shoulder pet tarantula that loved being with her so I'm not afraid of spiders so this was very fun and entertaining to watch. I would love a timelapse of them building their web nest. It feels like it would be so calming to watch. lol Thank you for sharing!

Spiders are cool in my book! They're so misunderstood.

By far one of the most unrelaxing and anxiety filled videos I’ve watched!😂

It was like a clown car in there! I can't believe how many spiders were hiding so well in that little space. Very cool to see.

Oh, look, a box of nightmares…

This video really put a smile on my face, it was so funny to watch those guys trying to escape! Love how calm you both were. Probably wouldn't have been laughing so hard if it was me!

Spiders are fascinating little creatures. I love spiders as much as I love snakes...in someone else's house. Great to watch but glad you have them at your place...lol. My daughter did Black widow spiders in 3 cages and ended up with 8 egg sacks. You can image my reactions when they hatched. Called the zoo and they were thrilled to get them. They got all of them in 2 large paper bags sealed shut and the keepers were pretty happy.

Very impressive sir, you treated this like a walk in the park!

get the one under the desk. get the one under the desk. GET THE ONE UNDER THE DESK DAVE, IT'S UNDER THE DESK, WHY HAVEN'T YOU GOT IT YET anyway. great footage.

I dont have a problem to see a spider. I have a problem when i dont see them anymore.

This is absolutely precious. I’ve been giggling the whole time 🥰

Wtf!?😳 spider-clown-car-action right here

This was pure chaos lmao

Well haven't been so scared and fascinated in my whole life.

Cant believe you are brave enough to pull that stuff out with your hands!!!

Dave: Be careful with the fingers as this one is an old world species. In literally 2 minutes: Behold, Dave TweezersHand! I am as always fascinated by your calmness and confidence dealing with your animals. I don't know who else can make a rehousing (communal mind you) video relaxing.

You should set up a time lapse right after you give them an upgrade. Show us how long it actually takes them to rebuild most of their stuff

Dave: "They can't go anywhere on the desk" Balfouri: "And I took that personally"

One runs under the crate “Oh there goes one. Nevermind him there let’s keep going.” Meanwhile, I’m across the world watching this and I’m getting anxiety!

This video is so interesting ! I’ve been into the hobby since I was 16 (I’m 23 now) and barely found out recently that there are communal tarantulas . I didn’t even know such a thing existed before . It blows my mind to see them all together like that without trying to eat each other. Subscribed 😄

Gee i wonder how many spiders he has freeroaming that room at any given time😅

Ha. Dave: “watch your fingers” Also Dave: *casually redirects spiders with his fingers* I mean, I guess you were watching them. 😝

To watch you so this without hand protection, to see you quite relaxed when several leg it, is really impressive. I’m a 48 yr old man and would have screamed like a helium filled teenage girl.

Usually the only spiders that freak me out are the small ones, because they're so fast and you can lose them. Big ones don't bother me. But then I saw a couple of these guys running at full speed and it scared the crap out of me lol they're so fast

such a nice wholesome video

The 4 of them bolting in sequence out of the new enclosure was hilarious

You are so calm. Oh well, we had an escapee. We will get him later. I would be like, “Kids, pick a toy. Pack a bag. We’re outta here - NOW!” I respect your work, dear sir, but I will never be visiting your store!🥰🥰🥰

Dave this vid is pure madness. No way I'd be sticking my bare hand into a 30+ balfouri communal!

I am squealing as he’s getting his fingers in there ahh!!!

Just ordered four spiderlings. Not quite thirty, but I can't wait.

Hi Dave Sorry that i missed this earlier video. So fun to watch. They are so fast, at getting out. They are a good size, and very pretty. 30 is a good number.❤Spiders. Cindy USA

Well there was 36 minutes of my palms sweating.

When those spider got loose! Holy cow! Three of those running around in my house means I’d have to move out, lol. Good job capturing all of them. Will you show us how they web it all up in a few weeks?

Wow. Very impressive 💕 Always wanted a group of balfouri. Beautiful T's! I would say "I can't believe" all the BS comments on here but being a T owner myself, I sadly can. One of the only hobbies where people feel obliged to tell you how disgusting it is or how they'd set 'em all on fire. It's quite depressing 😞 I get being scared of a creature but most people are just plain rude considering they are pets. Imagine if you were to randomly tell someone you'd take a flamethrower to their cat 😂

I hate house spiders but love tarantulas and jumping spiders. No idea why, but these spiders are absolutely precious!❤

they’re so cute omg. i love how you can audibly hear their paws skittering on the glass and plastic like a dog running in place on linoleum 💜

Oh my word, how in the actual is he sticking his hand in there. That box is my idea of Hell. I salute you sir, you are a braver man than I.

This was a lot more funny than it should have been. Great video.

Would be a interesting video of a time lapse camera showing the progress of the tank once they have been rehoused to show the webbing of the tank. Not my normal type of video on youtube but I enjoyed this, thank you.

That's amazing that over 30 of those size spiders were living in that small enclosure in such dense substrate. They definitely needed that new enclosure haha.

So lovely to watch you be so gentle with the little beasties ❤

The anxiety this video gave me 😬. When the first spider ran under the desk, I jumped and forgot my cat was behind me, her fur tickled my neck and I flew across the living room screaming, phone thrown and everything 😂. I can't stop watching and learning though.

Your channel is Awesome. I've been terrified of the tarantulas since I was a boy in Oklahoma. now I'm 30 and still afraid somewhat but not many of them are here in Ohio. Watching your videos shows me the soft calmer side of them. I could watch these videos for days with a roller coaster of emotions. soon hopefully I get the stones to actually try to hold one and conquer my fear. I've been taking things slow. I used to be scared of heights until I became a roofer and was up 60 floors in the air. Next fear is tarantulas. Keep doing what you're doing I hope you the best bud

Holy shit..... The tension in this is insane! Can't believe you use your bare hands

Balfouri are above all my favorite tarantulas! I have a much smaller community... and I adore them! All of yours look to be in excellent condition! Thank you for feeding my Balfouri addiction!!!🥰🥰🥰

Don’t know why, but I watched this before going to bed last Night and fell asleep halfway through just because of your calm narrating. This morning I woke up with tingling sensation inside and I realized that now wherever I step in my apartment, I can’t help but imagine 30+ Balfouris nestled in my shoes, behind the toilet or in the toilet bowl, in my cupboards, in my drawers, etc. I’ve just traumatized myself for a good couple of weeks.

Dave's desk is so ingenious. I love the idea of the lip where a bolting T will probably just stop and hunker down to hide. .. also wishing i ahd the nerves of steel he has when I rehoused my communal.

My dog brushed my leg with his tail while I was watching this and I jumped like a bitch.🤣 Lmao. This was very interesting but terrifying for me lol.

I cant believe Dave just casually putting his hands down and ripped into a full blown hairy leg spider community...my heart rate went through the roof and I cringed everytime he pulled up a bit of webbing..much respect to Dave...

Dave, you are the calm in the chaos 🤣

I’m always so amazed at how comfortable you are with your spiders and how comfortable they seem to be with you. Incredible group of Balfouri’s you have. They are all looking so beautiful!!!! Excellent video as always Dave!!

This is fantastic, seeing how calm you are with the spiders is great. Interesting how hardly any of them were aggressive too!

I love how you are so CALM handling these Old Worlds. You are SO good at what you do you don’t even get nervous with 31 youngsters running around. It’s impressive friend. Absolutely impressive!! You and the Mrs deserve the title of BEST in the hobby!!!

every time a spider moves quickly I freak the fuck out, I don't know how you can be so chill

It never ceases to amaze me how kind and gentle you are around spiders even with a whole commune of them. These Balfouri are lucky to have you around. :)

Your voice is the Bob Ross of spiders 😂
