It was a baboon spider which bit the young Tolkien in South Africa and the resultant trauma probably lies at the root of his creation of the nightmarish Shelob in "The Lord of the Rings "and the Mirkwood spiders in "The Hobbit".

In terms of the venom, the nastier reports in the medical literature involved P. murinus slings where the adults had less incidence of psychedlic effects which gives the species its feared reputation among novice keepers.

It bewilders me how any tarantula could be hated. My two H. Mac girls (though now old) are darlings who’ve never even raised a fang at me. I remember waking up in the early hours a few years back to find I hadn’t closed the door on Daisy’s tank properly. She was sitting on my headboard, watching over me whilst I slept❤ (the little one went back into her tank as good as gold). Never kept H. gigas but I have 4 H. crassipes. They’re very shy & like to skinny-dip so my larger one (and they’re VERY large) got an extra large water bowl as a jacuzzi ! Not got any obt’s at the mo but 4 P. murinus UMV & 3 mikumi juveniles. They’re shy but not aggressive, one UMV even went on a little adventure last week, walking up & down all over me before going back into her enclosure (her choice). All tarantulas should be loved, people should do species research to avoid disappointment !👍👍👍👍

True! I feel like many people don’t give them hides to show there defensive behaviour for content. My OBT is very chill and when I open the enclosure to feed her, she always hides and waiting for food. Never gave me a treat Pose till now.

@HayashiMiko Год назад

Correct! Weirdly enough, I kept my adult male (was eaten when breeding with a female sadly) in a tupperware container with holes. He made his web tunnels but he was pretty content. Never threw defensive postures at me nor slapped the ground. He literally didn't care and was fine with being handled.

@tye3ow Год назад

My 2 H Macs and my 2 OBTs are some of my favourites in my collection. My OBTs have made different, unique webbing every time I've rehoused them and I see them often if not out in the open, then peeking out from their hides. My H Macs are a little more reclusive but they grew fast and are impressive whenever they come out, and that colouration is beautiful.

@SteveMcT Год назад

OBT is definitely one of my favorites! I think keeping them semi arboreal with a good chunk of substrate and they're very laid back. I have 2 that are sweet hearts but I can see why some people have issues

@ignacymoscickifilms670 Год назад

I guess when i came into the hobby i thought that these characteristics define some species like the OBT. And now that i was fortunate enough to acquire 3 spiders with more to come, I have already learned that every spider can be different. The Murinus was supposed to be this menace and mine is actually pretty calm most of the time, as soon as I open the enclosure, she goes to hide. Not even once did she try to defend herself and her takedowns are mostly uneventful. Meanwhile my Brachypelma Hamorii takes several roaches at once, randomly jumps on the tongs and catches pray mid air, rolling around with it

@PinkBlue_Spood Год назад

I think it could depend on how they are fed as well. There are times I feed mine larger prey items, if I want to encourage quicker growth. But, at other times, I will feed them smaller prey items more frequently, which can encourage them to walk around at night.

I can't tell you how many kids over the years I have turned into huge tarantula fans because of my A. Hentzi, Molly.

@reddsonja4865 Год назад

When I saw the title to this video, my first pick, immediately that popped into my head was the OBT. It's a love/hate relationship. I have a dozen slings and they are the most difficult I found to raise. Feeding time is a challenge to not have them run out of the little deli cup they are housed in the minute you open to drop food in. I do have a method that works for me. I do all maintenance over a huge pot and when they escape they drop into the large pot, with several catch cups, paint brushes and tongs I can successfully get them safely back inside but feeding time is not a quick choir without its challenges. Given that, I still absolutely love them. I refer to them as my trouble childs!

I bought an obt when I was young in the hobby on looks alone knowing nothing about it. First night it got out while I was trying to show it off to some friends at a party I had at my house. I was able to catch it and get it back in it enclosure then immediately did some research. Listed as extremely fast, quick to bite, and usually wet bites. I can tell you from first hand experience it absolutely bites multiple times and as a first form of defense. That being said like mentioned in this video it was a very easy spider to have and care for just a but of an anxiety attack to re house and clean the cage. I would and likely will add one to my collection in the future once I get the wife to chill about the three spiders I currently have lol

Shocked by the texas brown being on here!!! I only have one tarantula, and that's what I got! He's actually quite defensive for a texas brown but I think their earthy colours are really lovely, and in my experience they like to be out in the open for the most part so you get to enjoy their company.

Love my OBT. Got him as one of my first 10 tarantulas and he’s probably one of my chillest ones. My tip to owning an OBT, get them as young as you can. Maybe not a sling but a juvenile that hasn’t matured yet would be best. Your confidence will grow along with your tarantula. Before you know it, you’re completely comfortable with a matured fully grown OBT and you can then start exploring the amazing world of Old World tarantulas.

I was going to say your last spider matches your beautiful ginger beard 😊 Interesting video. I guess people don’t like the wild guys!

We have a bucket beneath our AC in the back yard to catch condensation water and use for plants. We found one of those first one's floating in there which was the first live tarantula I have ever seen in the 30 yrs I've lived in california. It was barely moving but it WAS moving so I dumped the bucket over our fence and looked 20 mins later and it was gone. I hope it got some heat then took off bc it was close to dying from drowning and temperature I'd bet. That water was almost ice cold.

Two of my favorites are on this list! My hentzi is a sentimental favorite because it's named after a good friend, but I just love my ginger psycho!

Obt is such a beautiful spider, it's striking looks makes up for it's behavior imo.

i am since 10 years in the hobby but still consider myself a beginner , H.Maculata and P. Murinus are next level to me , my hands would shake dealing with them , but i wouldn't call it hatred 😅

I started with an obt and tbh, it doesn’t really bother me too much. An h Mac on the other hand… I don’t know if I could

I love my OBT lol. Mine is out all the time and tends to run away instead of threat pose. I know that this isn't everyone's experience but mine is great. Super easy to care for as well.

When I bought my metialica pocy I got a H. Mac spiderlings for free. It was one of my favorite to watch. Especially feeding it fruit flies.

@sarafalconer8567 Год назад

My OBT was a freebie included among the very first tarantulas I ever bought, and I was very nervous about it, but honestly Cheeto is super chill. I give them oversized enclosures so they have plenty of space and a few things to web up and they've never given me a single problem in rehousing. Definitely not as chill as my avic, who got her first enclosure shattered in the middle of the night by a cat and didn't throw up a single threat pose, or my t albo, who is basically a teddy bear. But i love seeing their furry little orange feet outside the burrow when they're hungry

They are just so beautiful.

I would love to see more trapdoor spider videos

My OBT is an angel, and she hangs out at the entrance of her hide most of the day so I can see her. If she gets startled she just slowly backs into her hide.

I love my OBT, but I can definitely see where they can be scary for a newer keeper. I also absolutely ADORE my H. mac, but I'm lucky and Dottie is frequently found chilling on her cork flats 🕷️

Awww I love my T vagans. 😢. He might be common but I think he’s a beautiful red and black

@ericdurst9715 Год назад

I do have a h.gigas and it's very calm and stays in or at the mouth of it's borrow. Those people need to understand that all tarantulas are beautiful. The king baboon and obt are on my wish list.
