Other channels (rightly or wrongly...I'm not judging) sometimes 'tease' and 'hastle' their tarantulas. I love Dave and camera Lady's stuff because it's educational and, more importantly, 100% respectful to the stars of the show! 🕷
The difference between the demeanor of the T's of this guy and other youtubers is insane. They always remain so calm due to how he handles the rehousings
Thanks so very much for sharing with us; I'm amazed at how peaceful & calm you are. And your enclosures are immaculate! You could easily make a profit selling these enclosures. I can see it now... Designs by Dave; or the Original Beasties Box!!! Love your channel; many Blessings!
wow I just love the way you set these enclosures up sorry she molted out on you instead of giving you an egg sac she is stunning wow you really do make this look easy wow you can really see who loves their animals keep up the amazing work my friend
Thanks matey its all part of keeping and we will try again later its the challenge that makes this such a great hobby theres always something new to learn and experience 👍
What a beautiful girl. I love seeing your enclosures for design inspiration. I have 3 slings, and the growth rate is incredible. Makes my other pokies slow growers in comparison.
Absolutely gorgeous spider ! You really have a way to avoid troublesome rehouses. For a moment, I had feared she would have given you and your camera lady a run around the Beastie room. Glad that she turned around and went off to hide instead. Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)
amazing colourful spider. another magical looking simple but great enclosure PROFF. love the clear picture on the amazing camera ladies work. brilliant.
By far my favorite enclosure set up. That was sweet of u to grab the stepping stool for the lovely camera lady 💙 smooth rehouse as always, very pretty, still one on my list to get. Thanks for sharing!
'Allo Dave and your lovely Camera Lady! Just letting you, as always, your gorgeous pokie is positively stunning. You're the Tarantula Whisperer, I swear! Just letting you know it's tax season here in the US and I work long hours to get them done. April 15th it should slow down. Wanted you also to know the T's I purchased along with the breeder decided to hold off on shipping because our weather here is gone from cold to siberian. LOL. But for their safety and well being we decided it would be better to ship them when it gets a bit warmer. Hope you and yours are doing well. I'll be in and out until taxes are done. Love watching you both. 🤗
Work always interferes with play 😂😂 sounds very cold where you are and a good decision to wait for delivery better safe than sorry 👍dont work too hard Linda and we will see you on the other side my friend 👍❤️
"We're gonna keep this one reasonably simple..." *presents work of art* 😂😂😂 You are an expert at this, that enclosure looks amazing. Though, what would you do when you have to change the substrate?
Nice one Team Beastie :-) It was a photo of P metallica which made me determined to get over my discomfort at seeing spider pics. Now I'm fascinated by pokies. This girl looks awesome in her fab new house.
Fabulous T. It has got to be the most spectacular of all. You do make lovely enclosures Dave. Definitely the T interior designer award for best enclosures
I literally just took a break from playing resident evil, that was too good. 😅 Then you made me think of Jurassic Park by saying, spared no expense. It's all of my favorite things in one video! Including the gorgeous spider too of course.
Brilliant looking enclosure dave mate really nice love that stick how it's leaned up across the enclosure looks really natural with the carpet moss as well I'm going have go out and collect some moss from the woods for my enclosures it makes them look brilliant just like a tropical rain forest.
Absolutely stunning and one of my favourite Poecilotheria species! I have one and she paired too so we will see. It was my first Poecilotheria and she started my obsession with that genus! Fantastic enclosure and a fantastic video Dave! Big well done to the camera Lady for great shots!
Hi Dave, that ornata is a massive beauty, wow! A few days ago I ordered one P. regalis and P. tigrinawesseli sling, but now I want a P. ornata..lol.. too many good looking T´s out there, damn! Btw, superb rehouse as always, nice and gentle!
Im lucky and have all you mention and have videos of them all being rehoused coming soon you will love yours when they arrive there Wonderfull spiders to own 👍
I watched this before going to work. You started my day. I was afraid she was going to bolt out the door. Lol! I guess I have to learn to be more CALM. Now I know why you say that. Lovely set up. Just a minor concern is that I would have put a few holes in the bottom of the plastic for the little vine to prevent root rot. Cleaver idea. Have a great day! Love your videos.
Another great video dave.. your content, knowledge and skill are like no one else. So interesting and informative 👍really spoilt us with this one. What a beautiful specimen you have and an amazing enclose . Top marks 👌
Amazing tarantula! And nice set-up you did. But did you forget to add the clean-up crew or did you add them later? Thanks for great videos! Cheers, John from Sweden
What a beauty! You make setting up a bio environment look so easy too! Something I'd love to ha e a go at in the future. Absolutely love these videos, so glad to have stumbled across your channel !
Dear Dave, I just wanted to thank you for the beautiful videos you’re making - they are very helpful indeed! All the best to you and best regards from Switzerland, Matt ❤
Thanks for telling us that small plant is a creeping fig as i bought a reduced one from wilko with no name. It was half dead and it sprang to live only a week or so after I got it. Great video Mr & Mrs 👍
I suspect people call them timid purely in comparison to similar old world species from South-South East Asia. Plus they generally seem to prefer to run than get defensive when spooked.
Beautiful new enclosure and what a stunning. P. ornata! If you happen to have a P. subfusca lowland and a P. subfusca highland (may have been reclassified as a different species now) that would be worth seeing and listening to your opinions on of them matey.
Nice looking terrarium. I have never had these kind of false bottoms, even in tanks housing high moisture depending speicies luke Theraphosa, asian fossorials and Ephebopus. If the tank is planted the roots drinks up exessive water and you dont have to moist that often if you have a deep compact soil layer. But i have many times thought of making a drainage layer but i have never did
@@daveslittlebeasties yes, but i dont feel that you dont need to control the humidety that much for tarantulas , not like say for "Poison dart frogs" Only time IME its kinda important is with females that ate being bred, or construct eggsacks. Otherwise its not that picky. I have always soaked the tanks and let ut dried up abit between soakings, and if i have plants in, they will drink up much of the water
@@klaskristian1 Yes I agree to some extent but by having the clay balls to separate any water from your soil you end up with a much nicer enclosure and the humidity you get from it is pleased very slowly through warmth and evaporation which allows a constant humidity rather than spikes which you will get from soaking the substrate and allowing it to dry out again before repeating the process👍
@@daveslittlebeasties Yes, i understand the principle and for animals that are kept very moist and are much more sensitive to drying out like frogs its very helpful. But fir tarantulas, i dunno? I keep lots of plants in my tanks and i have kept speicies like Theraphosa and Hysterocrates very moist by just flooding the tanks and let it dry out between flooding. I dont keep many speicies anymore, but i have an E murinus i have kept for several years in moist sub. The key is to use deep wellpacked soil and plants. Then soakings and moist sub is never a problem. Very good with drainage layers, but i feel its not nessesary
She is huge! And pretty. Camera Lady could do wonderful postcards and posters, pictures for nature magazines; so professional. What is your biggest spider? Oh my yes, she is gorgeous. At about 19: 40 you really see all the colors.
