The iconic Salmon Pink Birdeater or more commonly known as the LP, a South American new world spider from the Northern reaches of Brazil , these are probably the most commonly kept tarantulas in the hobby today, there tolerance of a wide range of living conditions make these perfect for beginners allowing for some mistakes as we learn to care for our new pet.

You got her in there so gently and kindly. It just goes to show that if your gentle, they sense it
He is so amazing with his handling. He shows how knowledgeable he is everytime he handles any spider. Much respect for him!!
@Arco's Ghost Yes! The best rehousing guy too!! 🥰
What a difference it makes between taking your time and being gentle with them and immediatly cupping them and stressing them out even more - I actually advised Tom Moran to have a look at your channel so he would have less hair-kicking, but he took it as negative critique and dismised it, which is truely a shame.
Since I implemented your teachings to my own collection, I've had no escapes, no hair kicking and no defensive posturing. You're truely a credit to the community!
Thank you we are learning all the time I like to keep my mind open we can all improve somewhere ❤
A little tickle and patience goes a long way with a spider :)
She’s pristine! I feel bad that the prior owner couldn’t keep her. God bless him; I hope his health returns soon. ❤
You Sir are true spider whisperer. When I see people mindlessly poking their Ts I'm like what the f&*#! Just go and see how Dave does it!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Anyone I know thinks spiders are disgusting, so I don't bring it up much. It's nice to watch these videos and hear him talk about how beautiful these tarantulas are.
❤️❤️❤️
A hobby staple and one of my favourites ❤❤
She is lovely 👍
Thanks Dave and camera lady. We definitely need to see her first feeding.
Wonderful video Dave!! She is absolutely beautiful and a large spider, I had one back in the early 90’s and she grew at an alarming rate! They seem to be very well behaved a little nervous if startled but overall great spiders. She will love her new home Dave and a thanks to you for adopting her in! Camera lady great job and the closing footage superb! Thanks so much guys I really love the L.P’s!!🕷
So nice of you❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for showing her. She is huge and pretty.
She could be on the cover of a Play Spider magazine. 😆
Great video. I have one of these. She was in a real bad state when I fell upon her. She had merely an enclosure, no hide, no anything. She was very aggressive as well. Every hair on her butt missing. So I took her on in september, gave her a proper enclosure with three different hides and she's as calm as you can ask for. Lovely species and imo quite easy to care for, as you yourself state in this video.
Thank you sharing. And merry christmas. Really felt warm watching this 😊.
Cheers my friend ❤️👍
She rly is on the exploring side.
"No time to settle into the new Home the world is waiting for me"
I have one from about 7 years now and she survived every conditions, can fast for long time but when she's hungry she will show you waiting by the terrarium door, just like a puppy :D . very nice beginner spider :)
We just realized your program reminds us of the old PBS lineups. Fit in with Bob Ross, The Yankee Workshop, Dave's Little Beasties and YanCan Cook.....
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have a LP sling and i can only hope for mine to grow into such a beauty. Fantastic information as usual. Her previous owner will surely find comfort In knowing she has a great new home
Wow, what a beauty. Thanks for showing her to us, a real treat.
Gorgeous spider 🕸
What well behaved female. Brilliant
Hello great video information and rehouseing Dave
What a beautiful and gentle giant she is indeed. It must have broken the heart of the pre-owner. Hope, he'll recover in Spain. Thank You so much for sharing!
That's an exceptionally cute spider. Love that coloring.
Thank you 🤗
Amazing looking, lp, lovely looking set up cut from nature, perfect
Many thanks!❤
@daveslittlebeasties thank you ,have a lovely Christmas

Stunning sp , their great , bomb proof , such fast growers , thanks for the vid
What a gorgeous spider and very big too I love the way you handled her very gentle, Thank you from Tracy California
Thank you very much!❤
I got a sling of this tarantula this summer.
The container I got mine in was about the size of a film canister. The breeder had an impressive collection for sale but I picked the Brazilian Salmon Pink Bird Eater.
The seller said to keep mine in that container for a year, but I'm so glad that I didn't do that.
I immediately put mine in a container with some depth & filled it with several inches of dirt. The baby has LOVED IT! It's dug this intricate tunnel system & the entrance to the hole has this ring of dirt around it.
There was ZERO of this done in the container it came in. So imo transferring mine has allowed my sling to create what it would've done in nature & that's what I want for it.
It sits in the hole a lot & it sits at the entrance a lot as well.
It eats pre-killed mealworms. Mine has a huge appetite for such a small sling.
I got a Mexican Giant Red Knee at the same time & the Salmon Pink has grown many times faster. We actually got worried because we see the Salmon Pink so much & not the Red Knee that we thought it might have died on us. It didn't it's just a far more reclusive tarantula at this point.
It's wild to see the size mine may be one day. It's so small right now lol.
Anyways, great video!
Brilliant, Stunning spider! Could watch a spider like this for hours.
For the first time in my life I have never said aww when I've seen a spider 🕸️ the way she was sitting next to the stick like it was a comforter a big beautiful girl
She's positivity stunning 😍
Beautiful, impressive spider. Happy Christmas to you and camera lady
It's one of my favorite videos. I can't say how many times I've watched it.
Wow, thanks!
We haven't seen a rehouse in a while so I was really pleased to see this one!! My LP has just moulted recently. The size they get after each moult is impressive! Loved the video mate and the smellavision had me chuckling lol atb!
I so look forward to reach my planned situation with my T's. After they all grow up fully and etc.
Having an easy stable +/- routine with minimal maintenance and further apart feedings. Oh the joy of this hobby.
amazing video y’all, thanks for sharing your ventures with us and teaching along the way.
Saw an adult female LP at an expo and I couldn't believe the size! I went home with a sling about 1/2 an inch. Cant wait for it to grow up.
What a sweetie.
Thanks for sharing her with us, & being so kind & gentle.
What a day! New video from Dave and i'm currently watching my first T go through her first moult with me. Absolutely Fascinating!
Hope you enjoyed it!❤
@@daveslittlebeasties she’s out but yet to flip over. But I think it’s all gone okay so far 🤞🏻
I found this very informative! My mom gave me a teeny, tiny baby Salmon Pink Bird Eater back in January. (Since it buried itself and disappeared, I guess I have a female!) The only way that I knew that she was still alive for several months was that the crickets would vanish within a few hours of my dropping them in.
Then one day, there she was, out in the open and huge compared to how small she once was! She had actually grown too big to go back under the substrate anymore; so I transferred her to a bigger terrarium. She made her burrow in the corner this time, so I can always see her now! She's molted a couple of times over the past few months, and after a few days she'll drag the old skin to the surface. (I've been saving them, like a mother saving their kid's hair clippings!)
This is indeed my first Tarantula, and I'm absolutely loving it! I'm definitely looking for that kind of tank when I have to upgrade next time.
Hi Dave, have been watching your channel for a while now and at the ripe old age of 66yrs have just got my 1st Tarantula! Is a beautiful 'curly hair' female. Not sure of age but measured total body length about 65mm (if I estimate leg span I'm sure to get it wrong)
It was a long drive home and maybe she was stressed because she the just sat in the top corner of the enclosure (same enclosure as the one in this video) for about 3 days, didn't see her move. Next day she had a wander round then sat up on top of her coconut hide. Thought she might be awaiting food so tried large cricket but no interest, will try again in a couple of days. She was being fed 2 large crickets a week hope that will be ok for now.
The professional way in which you handle/manage your spiders is a great example to anyone who comes into the hobby. Many thanks for putting out this great content, wishing you and your family (and your spiders) a great festive season.
Thats awesome I would not worry about her not eating they will fast for long periods of time , its more important her abdomen does not shrink , as long as she holds condition she will be fine 👍
@@luffebassen Thankyou for the info is greatly appreciated. I have a hygrometer above the water dish in the corner this is the dampest place in the enclosure and reads 75% I have placed another one on top of the mesh cover(back down) at the other end where the hide is this is reading 60%( It would read different inside just wanted a idea) Room temp is 20/21c. Have a small oil filled radiator in the corner of the room on thermostat keeping enclosure area 21/22c. Hope this is OK Thanks again
@@luffebassen Thanks once more for the info, it's very welcome. As someone just starting out always wondering if I'm doing things right, especially as the welfare of any animal in our care is of the highest concern.
Put the enclosure on the floor, removed the top to have a really good look around inside and do some clean up. Things looked pretty clean but I did notice the substrate was quite damp(not wet) I have overflowed the water dish once but really only a little. I do remember when I was buying the spider online looking at photos and the substrate was brown in colour and darker around the water dish where it was damp. However thinking back when I collected it, the substrate was black everywhere and the coconut hide was dark at the bottom where it had been absorbing water. I did not think much of it at the time as humidity readings were OK and therefore did not check the substrate. But with a full mesh top I think the 'air humidity' was Ok substrate was too damp?? Have added more substrate (dry coconut fibre) might move her to her new enclosure tomorrow.
I have a Exo Terra set up ready as when I decided to get a tarantula a just assumed it would not come with a enclosure. The mesh lid on the one she came in is a little damaged.
As a side note I removed the mesh from the ExoTerra and replaced with perspex with vent holes drilled as I'd heard tarantulas can get their feet stuck in the mesh if they climb around the roof, after doing this saw a video on this channel where Dave says it is not necessary but had changed it by then.
Thanks again for your help
Awwww! Her can be fuzzy! ❤️❤️❤️
Just picked up an LP sling from you at the show today so I’m here again to see what the future holds! Was great to meet you, I have named this sling ‘beastie’ 🤣 Also pinched your sticker off the other half’s bag to save for the forever enclosure in the future 😁 hope you and beautiful camera lady had a safe journey back 👍❤
Thanks for the support hope you enjoy your spider and we look forward to meeting you again at the next show ❤️👍
Hello Dave
once again a very nice video with an amazing beautiful animal. i always find your terrariums very well set up and largely species appropriate.
here is a little suggestion from me that you can think about if you want. I would love it if you would show after a rehousing video, how the animals have settled in their new home. i think about two to three weeks later. i would find that very interesting. I look forward to your next video. Greetings from Bavaria.
Your enclosures are beautiful just like your tarantulas
I just love watching the amount of care you give to putting together these enclosures. So relaxing to watch ❤
And as a side note: Dave, the way YOU interact and handle the tarantulas make them all seem like beginner spiders. You have such a way of showcasing and emphasizing their strengths. It shows precisely that, no matter the size, reputation, or species of animal, if you treat them with respect you will get respect in return
Thank you ❤❤❤
Mine was eating full grown mice with zero issues. She was a pro at grabbing them at the back of the head. I started feeding mice at about 4 yrs old. She'd eat anything that I dropped in her tamk. I had gotten her as a dime sized 'ling in Feb of 1994. As you had stated, they are easy to care for and very hardy. After all this time and many species later, she's been my favorite. I hope to get another here shortly. I have to wait until my room addon is complete on the house.
Whenever you’re building these things, I always imagine myself as a tiny little person living inside that world. (Not with the spider, mind you.) So cool.
Highly considering getting a big terrestrial spider haha I went old world and arboreal. 😂 I missed most of the popular ones
I love your enclosures, everyone looks as though it is a nice area under a tree in the wild, your decor and enclosures look bloody naturalistic! The moss on the bottom is a wonderful addition it looks great and it also serves a purpose, I watch many spider channels and none of them use the moss for inside their enclosures! That spider, I am calling her Bella (Italian name) meaning beautiful because she is absolutely stunning!
Well done Dave another great video, merry Christmas to you both, I hope you have an amazing time! ❤️🎄🌲🎄🕸🕷🤶🧑🎄🎅🤩
Thank you for your kind words Hayley hope you. have a lovely Christmas too ❤️❤️❤️
Omg WANT ONE!!!! 😁 Awesome video Mr and Mrs Dave ❤️ love the bit at the end just showing her, I would love it if you did that on more of your vids, love watching them just being spiders 🕷 🙏🥰😍😘
This is a really beautiful lasiodora parahybana 👍
A stunner! I have only a lasiodora striatipes in my collection, also a beautiful thing. Nice to see a common spider like L. parahybana on you channel. Great video as always 👌
Many thanks!❤
I honestly this this one of the prettiest LPs I've ever seen. Gorgeous!
You are very in Tune with the Spiders 🕷 it’s special to see.
Thank you 🙏 ☺️
I have one of these arriving next week, it'll be my first spider. Excited is an understatement! LP's have always been my favourite. Had to wait until I wasn't living with an arachnophobic parent. 🤣
Good choice!
Such a beautiful creature and the best part is she still has some growing to do!
She's beautiful Dave for sure, enjoy her!
You are a true artist Dave. I usually think of your videos when I am about to create a new enclosure
Thank you 🙏
Just got two juveniles yesterday. Glad they grow fast. Watching your video to learn more about them. Thanks.
how is it going?
I really would love to have one of these! Such a beautiful spider!
Aww.The moment I saw this Beauty it gave me a little sting, because She reminded me of mine who passed away 4 Years ago. So, I can totally empathize with Her former Owner. They're lovely and as You said very recommendable for Beginners. Anyway...merry Xmas to You and Cameralady and Your loved Ones. And of course to all the Beasties 🎄🕷🕸🎅
Thanks mate you too ❤️❤️❤️👍
Anyone with no experience like Dave would have freaked out when a spider of that size goes to the edge of the tank like that. Would have been a messy situation. Just shows how experienced Dave is
❤️❤️❤️
Mine doesn't web that much. She is gorgeous though. She usually just makes beds of web and mounds. She rearranges her enclosure somewhat. Also likes to put dirt in her water dish. Lol.
Got my first LP just a few weeks ago. Mine is still orange and small but I can't wait for her to grow. Being small still she made a burrow in the back corner and she's a pet hole for now.
Such a cutie 🕷🥰! Thank you dear Dave and our Sweet Camera Lady for always making wonderful, informative and interesting video! I wish you both 🌟☃️🎄❄🎅🤶A Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year 🎆! I wish your viewers the same too! Take care, big warm 🎄hugs, Susanne ❤ 🥰 🤗 .
Thank you Susan ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful spider, Dave. She is mellow & quite cooperative for you. I can’t wait to see you feed her. I do hope you’ll at least give us a peek of her first feed?
🤔🕷🕸🪳👍🎄🎁👏
I’m we can do that ❤
I want to wish Dave and camera lady and all your animals and all of your subscribers a happy Christmas 🎄🎄
And a very merry Christmas to you too my friend ❤️❤️❤️
What a unit! My female LP I've had for about 6 years now, she's definitely a beast but plenty of room to grow. She's a bit skittish at times but otherwise she's very chill.
Got to love a beautiful LP. Never had any issues with humidity and mesh tops even with high humidity as you get a decent airflow, which I found critical on chams and tree boas, ok I had spray bars in mine on timers but as you said as long as keeping an eye on the humidity I find overall much healthier environment
Totally agree!❤
What a beauty! Lucky girl to come live with you two!
Beautiful tarantula and a fabulous size girl
Lovely creature, and so well behaved!
Brilliant video Dave
merry Xmas & happy new year to you and camera lady
Thank you 🙏
Dave, love the time you take to build the tank ... never just a glass tank or plastic tub. Great advice!
All the best
Thanks 👍
Fantastic Dave she was gorgeous!!!! Thank you!!!!
Looking forward to a pairing in the weeks and months ahead!
Beautiful LP! All the best to her former owner 🍀
My adult female LP isn’t as nice as this lovely lady. She doesn’t throw hair immediately, but strikes at everything, due to her crazy feeding response 😅 even the water isn’t save when I fill her water bowl. If I want to tidy up her enclosure, I have to put a large tupper container over her.
She webbed up everything on the floor, doesn’t dig a lot and she prefers dry spots over wet ones.
They’re great „goliaths“ for beginners.
Well that is a lovely spider, and I liked the quiet moment at the end. Happy Christmas, my friends.
Very nice video of the LP. I got my self a female LP. Over 8 inchs. She very gently with me :)
Yeaaaa! Finally one I have!!! I just acquired one of these! Although mine is only about the size of an American half dollar & still sling color. Can't wait till she grows up!
You can super glue a piece of plexiglass to the top of the screen on half of it snd it'll help you out with your humidity alot.
Beautiful spider Dave
Thank you 🙏
What a beauty! Nice job! Congrats on passing 70K subscribers! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Thank you! You too!❤️❤️
Besides your almost meditative video I enjoyed your excitement of her being in such good shape and manner even more. 😀
Wishing you, Camera Lady and all your beasties merry Christmas from Germany!
Thank you 🙏
As allways maestro Dave
My baby striped knee looks like a mini replica of that big girl there.
I've just got one of these today as a sling and I'm looking forward to growing it on. What a beauty.
Beautiful encloser set up ! Wonderful video
Thank you very much!❤️❤️❤️
This is one of my first tarantulas mate needed to rehome him so i was happy to take him in he lovely to watch and i have mesh lid he like to climb all over it
Best part about your videos is the head scratch at the beginning , as if you are clue less what to make 😅.......lovely enclosure....lovely decoration with moss and plant 🪴
Wow Dave, she is amazing such a stunning spider, I could watch her move all day fascinating, she certainly fancied a walk about the beastie room lol, Thankyou so much for taking the time to make these videos, you and camera lady do a sterling job, I’ve been a good boy this year I’m hoping Santa brings me one of those…
I swear Dave you could make millions by selling your beastie mix packages on the channel, when I first started it would of put my mind at ease when starting with substrate questions
Wow, what a beautiful T ! That enclosure came out really nice Dave. You are a very talented T master ! Thanks for sharing !
Thank you 🙏
Wow, thank you Camera Lady and David. She really is impressive. I always love to watch you guys build an enclosure. I would love to see how she goes. Take care and Happy Holidays❤️👍🏼
Brilliant video video uncle Dave has they always are
Thank you 🙏 ❤
Wow she's very pristine, the previous owner did a fabulous job of taking care of it, It's not stressed out she very well behaved, very very beautiful as well. Please keep us updated I would love to see the enclosure all webbed up. See what she's have done to it please!!!! If when you guys have time.. again my friend a wonderful wonderful video. You never disappoint 💯
Can't wait for the next and want to wish you both over again Happy holidays...🎅🎄🎁🕸️🕷️👍
Thank you 🙏 😊
A Gorgeous Spider indeed! And a very Merry Christmas to you Dave and Camera Lady!
She's a beauty. Congrats!
Getting creative with there enclosures is one of best parts of the bobby😁
Just came back to watch this again as I'm thinking of getting a juvie next week. What a wonderful video. I love the close-up ending.
Glad it was helpful!
My male is twitchy and will raise up,my brothers is super placid,it varies,hope 5his helps👍
