    In regards to Elvira... I figured out that my terrestrial slings will climb the walls like that when they don't Like their substrate. The Two main reasons this has occurred in my enclosures is either too much moisture In a dry species, or to much loose debris. Sometimes they just dont like it..... I'm not saying that is the case with yours, but maybe change the substrate and see what happens.
    One more possibility is that it is about thermoregulation.... if there is heat source above or below the enclosure that the T is either reaching out to or trying to escape. Just some things to think about. Your Ts always look so well kept and content.

    The Brazilian Blacks are beautiful tarantulas, I do have one. I do have multiple tarantulas from winning them. I have then decided to give them away to someone else as a prize myself. I just found I was getting too many, even though I hadn't even bought them. It just became too much for me. I find I do love LP's only because they were my first tarantula, many years ago.
    Anyway, cool video

For me I have to have multable of my dream spider they are all different the one will climb onto my hand and be chill and the others are mixed between not today and get away from me we don't want to see human today.

    I'm a sort of tarantula newbie, I'm about a year in to the hobby. I only have 4 Tarantulas... And two are H. Chilense slings because I absolutely love the species. They're still tiny but doing great, molting perfectly when they do (which I'm happy about because a few T keepers fully called me an idiot for buying a more expensive species). I absolutely would buy more too when I have the chance to do so, since it seems like they've become far less common in the trade. (My other two are a G. Pulchra I need to rehouse, and an A.Chalcodes. Somehow I landed on slow growers)

    • @tarantulakat

    I spent like years watching UA-cam tarantula keeping vidz, including your delightful channel, before taking the plunge late last year. I have a juvenile g pulcra because I couldn't afford or find an adult! He/she just molted into the velvet black and is awesome. I also got a Brachypelma Boehmei, Aphonopelma Chalcodes, and Pamphobeteus Species Mascara. The only other species I want is a skeleton leg but I'll have to grow a pair first 😊. Thanks for all the great content.

    The only multiple I have is my Curlyhair. I have 3. I added two to an order so it would be over the amount for free shipping. They were very inexpensive and I'd heard they were great for beginners. Since, they have grown like crazy and I enjoy them so much. I then found a sub adult at a local pet shop at a really good price. This one I was able to sex female. They're all really great pets and I enjoy keeping them so much.

So really as long as their taken care of who cares how many of each u have.

      Yeah 100% and my advice isn’t like mandatory.. I’m just saying, I get asked my biggest advice a lot and it’s that. I’ve seen people (and been one of those people!) that come into the hobby and suddenly get 4 curly hair tarantulas. And when you’re working with limited space and you end up with 4 curly hairs, 3 rose hairs, 4 a seemani .. that kind of limits you before you even discover all these other species available in the hobby. It takes up space and can make you end up with too many too fast ..

    @samanthageach3146 3 місяці тому

    It would be cool to make a video on the difference between actual hoarding and collecting tarantulas. I know many of us in this hobby (and the reptile hobby) get a lot of flak about "hoarding" animals even though all of our animals are well cared for and easily within our capabilities and financial means. It is a very small minority who take things overboard and don't meet the needs of their animals. I have a lot more animals than anyone I know but they are kept immaculately, and I wouldn't get more than I can handle on my own. But there are people that struggle with hording, and they need help, not to be shamed and ridiculed. Shame only pushes these disorders further into the shadows of secrecy.
    Sometimes I have to stop myself from getting something more than I can manage and just appreciate the animals I have already. Sometimes you have to just be realistic with yourself. Unfortunately, I don't have the room for a Tegu or a retic at this time in my life, maybe someday but not yet and as much as I want it I just have to wait until the time is right.
    Sometimes when I get the itch for a new species instead of getting it right away, I put the money I would have spent on those new critters into the ones I already have. Just today I upgraded my corn snake and leopard geckos' enclosures, and tomorrow my Pacman frog gets a new wading pool!
    As far as doubles I have a lot of multiples mostly for breeding purposes. 4 C. elegans, 4 M. balfouri, 4 P. irminia (My fav species!), 3 Kochiana brunnipes, 3 pumpkin patches, 3 P. murinus, 3 T. albo, 2 P. cancerides, 2 H. mac, 2 A. geniculata, 2 Davus pentaloris and 2 B. hamorii

    The only Tarantulas i have more than one of are OBTs...
    In the past i haven't had much luck with slings... I don't really know what i did wrong, but almost 75% of them died a few weeks after i got them, regardless of their species and their environmental requirements. Then one day i got an offer to get four OBT-slings for 30€... I thought i'll be lucky if one of them survives... all four made it! Now i'm sitting here with four angry, mature, Pterinochilus murinus, ready to kill me as soon as they get the chance ;-)
    Funny enough i haven't lost one sling since then...

    Honestly I would have multiple of few species myself. I don't see the reason not too? Like if you like a spider and love raising that species I don't see a problem with owning more than one. It's nice to know that people like a certain species and I like to know why. Like why they like that spider versus other species and such. So I just find that a fascinating part about people who own spiders and own more than one type of the same species.

    • @tarantulakat
