Pulling the Lasiodora Parahybana Egg Sac! 

The beetle carrying the matchstick,lol, made me laugh so much, that it reminded me of an old song. Come on light on baby light my fire lol.

I'm so sorry for your sad losses, but what an amazing egg sac at the end

Great job with all those babies!! And thanks for sharing. We lost an avic avic 6 days after bringing her home. She was our first T. I beat myself up for quite some time, even though things just happen sometimes, even to the most experienced among us. This would have made me feel better at the time, so its truly awesome you made this video.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I can't imagine how bad you felt, esp since half the sac wasn't yours. It's just a run of bad luck, who could've predicted you'd a broken AC at the same time as the worst/hottest summer on record?! Then the trip too! It's just one of those things.

I love all your videos just remember life will get better . just hold your head up high .

Hi Alex, great to see you back, glad you had a great time away, sorry the hunting was a no show though. Regrets about the P cambridgei and also the other losses, I do know how that feels, I lost 60 T's thanks to a nasty flat mate, long story. Great news about the Lp babies though, every cloud and all that. Keep well my friend 👍🏻

Yes !!! Sir a video Thank you Positive for the a new day bud. Keep on the up and up

Dear Alex. I´m very sorry for your losses, but congratulations to that successful LP-Sac

Hello great video I live in the southern California area and tarantulas will come outside at about 830pm hours Alex

Sorry for your losses.. things happen.. Keep your head up love your videos

So awesome to get a new video from my favourite tarantula youtuber even if it is a sad one. I can relate with you to a lesser degree. My work started picking up lately and as such I have been away from home for extended periods of time and on top of that I also moved into a new place so things were a bit hectic and unfortunately my tarantulas got a bit neglected as of late which is no excuse but it does prove that sometimes life just gets a bit much all at once. Long story short I lost my E campustratus which was probably my rarest and friendliest t and it makes a person feel like a bad caregiver even if the circumstances were out of your complete control. But life is hard and sometimes we feel down but there are always positives to balance out the negatives.

New subscriber here Namaste. Love your channel, I'm new to spiders and learning about them. Fascinating. Thankyou.

I'm so sorry for your losses. I'm glad your lp babies did so well for ya, at least 😊

A friend of mine did go tarantula hunting with him about 2 months ago 👏🏻👏🏻. At night I’m a Cali girl 😊

I wish you lots of strength! Sorry for your losses 😢 I feel with you, it's always hard. I love you and your channel, no matter how many videos you upload a week ❤

Don't be hard on yourself, Alex. Sometimes, things don't work out, and the things that happened were out of your control.

So sorry that you had a rough summer. 💙 We missed you and are happy that you were able to end on a more positive note!

I breed superworms and the beetle form is a type of darkling beetle they are pretty cool and they are prolific breeders

So happy to hear from you, I'm sorry that you're on a down stretch with the tarantulas but you know that "up" is just around the corner. Love your videos keep up the hard work.

Beautiful babies!!!

So sorry for all of your losses Alex 😭. The lp sac was phenomenal though 😊. Glad you had a good time with family. Best wishes for your new breeding projects. Tyfs God bless you

I'm the same age as you are and I gotta give you credit for at least trying to find tarantulas but after all the unfortunate events there was triumph in the end. Beautiful babies ❤

Sadly holidays are out of the question in my line of keeping pets

So sorry for your losses 😔

I forget if it was Rus, or Peter from Bugs in Cyberspace, but one of them once cited some stat that 80% (or some ridiculous number) of the biological mass in those SW desert areas is darkling beetles.

2 months is EXACTLY what my LP sacks took to be ready. I dont recall the temp. But it was in my living room. So most likely around 22-23 Celsius.

YOUR WIFE IS MY ELA TEACHER I DIDNT KNOW YOU ARE TARANTULA HAVEN??????? THATS SO COOL!!! (im in mrs. gastelums 6th period class you may know a cam/camden)

I am still hesitant to breed LPs. i love the species, but the amount of slings inside is really worrying. But this experience will propably happen... sooner or later.

I bought a Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater last year as a tiny ass sling. I have 5 tarantulas & this was the smallest one I ever had. This tarantula grows like you WOULDN'T FUCKING believe lol! If you want a tarantula that eats & grows & within a year it's the size of your hand, the Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater is your tarantula!!! Now I'm gonna say some shit that pisses off people, but hear me out. Imo, IT IS A CRIME TO RAISE THIS TARANTULA IN A LITTLE ASS CONTAINER LIKE EVERYBODY SEEMS TO DO!!! In fact all my tarantulas start in rather larger cages. The Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater ABSOLUTELY LOVES TO DIG!!! Not giving it room to dig would've robbed this tarantula (& me & my gf) the pleasure of watching it make elaborate tunneling systems! When the tarantula is hungry it sits at the top of it's burrow hole with it's legs barely sticking out. We would drop in food & if it's waiting at the hole entrance it'll eat 100% of the time & drag it into the hole. When it molts it closes off & plugs up the hole & retreats into the elaborate tunnel system to molt. When it molts it would store the molt in the "garbage" area of the tunnel lol! Then it unplugs the hole & it'll come out, explore, & then sit & wait for food. As it has been growing it's been re-digging the tunnels & sometimes in 1 night it TOTALLY redoes everything & you go in & see this new system. IT'S AWESOME TO SEE THIS EVERY DAY & I promise you it's worth placing this tarantula in a big tank rather than these little ass film canisters that so many people use. In the wild tarantulas don't have a film canister either.

I hope everything gets better! One day at a time.... Keep a stiff upper lip brother! Great video

T's in the wild are not the same attack response as captive bred, they are a lot more timid, Alex when diddling (fishing) for tarantulas in their Burrows a more Gentle..approach is needed.. a cat's whisker taped to the end of a bit of grass touching the web Ever Ever so gently still won't guarantee a showing. Smashing on its door with a tree branch won't get you nowhere.. Very sorry for your losses but sadly also part of the hobby especially here in Australia.. with such insane temperature changes from one day to the next.. that's pretty much the hobby hear... just trying to keep our T's alive..

Quit being so hard on yourself!!

Sheer neglect has caused them Ts too die there in a room that 85 degrees they've died through dehydration that's why they've gotten stuck in there molts and all the slings dried out lack off moisture dehydration is what's caused the death off all those Ts unfortunately something that could off been avoided next time you plan on going away please make sure you've got some body too look after your Ts for you make sure they've all got water they can go months without food but in that kind off heat dehydration kills them very quickly especially slings sorry for your losses 😭
