Male or Female - Confirming the epicuranus Molt #tarantula #tarantulas
A look at our recently molted Tliltocatl epicuranus to identify if we have a male or a female spider.
This beauty was an unsexed gift from OC Tarantulas back in October of 2023 as a thankyou for caring for some of his spiders whilst here in the UK.

Two Acanthascurria geniculata that are overdue a move into a better setup. Was going to do this a while ago but due to premolt / molting I wanted to ensure they were eating and hardened before doing so. The hobby staples for me are brilliant, A gens, Albopilosus and the brachypelma genus all seem to be hardy easy to care for spiders. Hobby Life boxes www.plasticboxshop.co.uk/search/hobby-life-m...

A quick move of our Brachypelma klaasi (Mexican Pink Beauty). Wanted to give more horizontal space as this one was sitting high on the door most of the time after bulldozing its current setup on a regular basis, so something wasnt quite right. Hopefully this will allow move space but also reduce the risk of a fall from the top of the previous enclosure. Thanks as always for the support. Apologi...

Space hopper or alien antenna

Congratulations beautiful girl
Thanks
AWESOME some really nice pickups The Darlingi sling and the H.Mac are Nice Ts I have 2 grown on Darlingis and a Very Large adult female H.Mac shes huge but the funny thing is shes very laid back for an H.Mac unless shes planning something 😂😂
Planning over a long period of time 😂
@@TarantulaRookie yeap lol shes got plenty of time for that 😂😂
I can’t wait to go here
@ you won’t be disappointed - look out for Phil of incredible inverts 🤟🏼
Hi mate, Tyler here Scott gave me those 3 slings! And that v. Chromatus bought off you bolted in my Lego box 😂
@@Tylantula did you find the chromatus ? Hope you had a good day.
@ yeah luckily! My day was amazing
@ glad to hear it 🤟🏼
@ cheers! It gives my a heart attack every time I open the enclosure.
That’s the Key to selling, just get the item in the persons hand !! Who knew it applied to spiders 🤣😂
😂
It was nice to see you matt. I thought it was funny that we both bought a mukini from leah and both came home with a h mac 😅. I know what you mean about that hentzi .I always love to see it as mine was my first spider, but it's such a slow grower . mine is probably around 4-6 cm after three years .
Yeah the one Natalie has is around 8cm it’s a beauty
It was also great to catch up buddy
It would be great to have an animal tour tbf Matt.👍🙂
I’ll try and sort it. I just need to sort some overdue rehouses before I’m happy to do it 🤟🏼😂
Great video matt🎉🎉🎉
Thanks Donna
Hello great video information Matt
Appreciate the support Moon
Awsome video mate 😊 looking faward to next years one
It is a great show atmosphere
Great video, love your woolly black spider ☺️
Such a beautiful little thing
Awesome video Matt thank you for the shout out
Haha 😂 was good to see you buddy
Love the Versi need to rehouse my juvie female soon
Such an amazing species
@@TarantulaRookie I had 2 slings but one passed but the other was stronger thats made it to juvie now well happy the colour changes with each molt are stunning
@@michaeltaylor2449truly are
Awesome species Matt really good video mate cheers
Thanks appreciate it
The phrase "herding cats" comes to mind 😂 Great video mate, beautiful spider too ❤
yes - very much so haha
Brilliant video and beautiful versicolor
thanks Amy
Wow, she's beautiful 😍😍 really nice rehousing, even though she was stubborn 😂
She really is a beauty - thanks :)
The versicolor is beautiful, and she was very stubborn lol. I have a mature female myself, grown from a sling, one juvenile and 4 slings... So yes I do love them. Amazing colours and such a laid back tarantula.
yes Jackie they really are amazing
Matt that was one stubborn spider but wow she’s in amazing condition those colours just stand out so glad the Avics are doing well and glad you have another male
Thanks Mark. Im glad i managed to pick another up as unfortunately after making this video Jays one passed away
Think this could be my fave too. Such beauty, from slings right up to adults.
Yeah I have a couple and they are amazing
How many rubber bands did you lose?!😂 I'm just glad you get spare coz at least a couple end up flying across my room never to be seen again lol
None this time 😂
@@TarantulaRookie must be an expert!😆
@@heleninglis9961haha 😂😂
Loved the video Matt, Alice 😊
Thanks Alice ❤️🤟🏼
Hello great video information and rehouseing Matt
Thanks 👍
Look how kind she is !
She’s a beauty 🤟🏼
LOOK AT THAT BEAUTY ! WOW ! Great Video 🎉
Thank you! Appreciate it
Good job
Thanks
Do you have any idea whether these Sun Beetles would be suitable as a supplemental feeder insect for reptiles?
I’m really not sure. I couldnt feed mine to our reptiles. I know the grubs sometimes are
@@TarantulaRookie yeah, i should have been more specific. It was the larvae that i meant, but it would most likely be as a treat. Or something to give for the sake of variety. Thanks for the response, I've been looking on multiple subreddits and UA-cam videos. But you're the first person to actually respond 😀
@@christopheringelandt260 no problem. Ill always try to reply to every single comment. I know the grubs are sometimes bred for fish feeders and thats how some people pick them up cheap but they are also sold by companies such as swell reptiles as reptile and amphibian feeders. If you search for Pachnoda grubs or pachnoda fruit beetle grubs youll find these sources im sure. How healthy they are i am not sure as i havent really researched it as i keep them as pets. - However - the person who i would ask every single time is Phil of Incredible inverts and other animals. He is a font of knowledge. www.youtube.com/@IncredibleInvertsOtherAnimals Swell states Fruit beetle grubs for reptiles and amphibians High protein and fat content, perfect for treats Come in packs of approximately 10 bugs
Sorry to hear this mate gutting but the footage is AWESOME
Thanks buddy, appreciate that
AWESOME was good to see you again too mate nice wee Mantis you picked up I was gonna get the same species but ended up not getting one as I completely forgot with seeing so much nice wee Inverts scattered about I ended up spending loads 😂😂
I bet you did 😂
@@TarantulaRookie 😂😂
Thank You for the Content, Matt and my Sincere Condolences
Thankyou. You’re welcome glad you enjoy the videos
😳😳😳
Great video and set up Matt. Sorry the little one didn’t make it. Alice
Thanks 👍
Cool video Matt good luck with the future breeding programs mate the Avics are hard to raise from slings I managed to raise an Avic Minatrix from tiny sling to adult female shes a BEAUTY now might get a few more slings to see If I can raise a male to pair with her I had a Giant Green Pinktoe years ago she was MAHOOSIVE lol
@@michaeltaylor2449 they are stunning
Hello great video information and sorry for your loss Matt
Thanks moon
Great video. They were beautiful, I'm sorry for your loss. These things unfortunately happen but you can tell how much you cared for the little one ❤❤
Thanks Courtney ❤️
Awww matt 😢 so sorry little one left so soon 🫂
Thankyou. Honestly was gutted
@TarantulaRookie yeah can see it in you eyes 😢
