    Stunning spiders. 🖤
    It’s only August but the temp plummeted from mid to high 70s at night for weeks to nearly 50 degrees tonight. Everything is still green, but it feels like autumn and I am so ready for it. 🎃🍂🍁
    Can’t wait to see what you have in store for this coming Halloween. 👻

    Featherleg is completely underrated. She is THE most beautiful of all T's and is well more docile than all those horror reports claim! Was my first oldworld, I've kept 3 now, and never ran into any issues. Try keep her semi arboreal.When slings and juvies can dig, they are more happy and relaxed. I don't know in what climate you live, if it's dry you should give her a hydrometer so humdity doesn't below 80% or better 90%. I seem to have noticed they are far more active and aggressive when it's dry, maybe due to dry season in their homeland.

    Got 3 out of 6. P. irminia, P. vittata and H. maculata. I was hoping when you said no Pumpkin Patch, that you were going to bring out Fire Red Pumpkin (H. sp. "Guerilla").

    Wow Alex, all 6 tarantulas are lithe fast arboreals, I think you may have a preference. It is a preference I seem to share with you, as the Psalmopoeinae family is my favorite. I was fully expecting to see Grammostola pulchra or Brachypelma smithi in there somewhere, but it was all arboreals.
    Also my research has led me to believe that H. maculatum and S. calceatum do possess the most potent venom, with the latter being the only tarantula bite death I could find a reliable record of. A 3 years old was bitten on the back of the neck, and passed away 2 days later

    • @TarantulaHaven
      @TarantulaHaven  Рік тому

      Yep. I’ve done mostly terrestrial in the past, I was trying to move in a different direction. I did have OBT footage I was going to use. But my OBT is so crazy I couldn’t pull it out of the enclosure without it bolting everywhere. I’ll have to look that up about the S. calceatum. I guess we can’t say that no deaths have been attributed to tarantula bites anymore. 😱

    Love the Tarantulas. I never liked Slasher films. I'm more of a suspense and thriller fan. That's why I prefer Japanese or Southeastern Asian movies. The American remakes seldomly come close.

    Alex, awesome video, buuuut, Frankenstein is the doctor. Not the monster. He is not green he is just human.

    • @TarantulaHaven
      @TarantulaHaven  Рік тому

      Yeah I know that. I did say Frankenstein’s monster when I showed the picture but afterward I didn’t. Also in the 1931 Boris Karloff version they painted the monster a grayish-green color to make him appear different on film than the rest of the cast members since it was black & white. Since then he’s been portrayed as green in many colored versions, so it is associated with the character despite Mary Shelley’s actual vision for the character. 🤓👍🏼
