    Some of these spiders, like the one at 12:50, should have been rehoused ages ago. Can't believe that poor spider is sitting in that tiny cup.

    I definitely enjoyed this video. It eases my anxiety bc alot of times my slings don't eat so it is comforting to see someone else experience the same thing!! Keep making these occasionally.

    Regardless of a take down or not, it is still exciting to see the differences in the smaller spiders. To be honest any spider footage is interesting to watch. (Especially from the Dark Den) 😉

      Totally agreed. I would be so ashamed off myself if I didn't do the courtesy of rehousing a Tarantula sling into a container that is much more accommodating. Being so cooped up with no space to move. Shameful. Truly shameful. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Right now I have 6 slings, 1 juvie (T Albopilosus) and 1 adult that's a dwarf species C elegans. I have them in bigger enclosures than you do, and they get to "hunt" their prey, sometimes they even roll over while tackling the prey. They are so cute. I have a N chromatus sling who is afraid of small small mealworms. I squish their head, so they wiggle but can't burrow, and when he tries to get it and it wiggles, he freaks out and runs away. He will watch it for hours and keep trying. Eventually he will eat it when it dies.
    My I mira, the blue footed T, otherwise known as the trapdoor tarantula has had 2 of the best take downs. The first, she was on the side of her enclosure and I was dropping in a pin head cricket, then she jumped off the wall and tackled the cricket. I was shocked. Then last night I dropped in a pin head, and she came out of her trapdoor and grabbed it and retreated into her burrow all in like 1.5 seconds. I didn't think she would build a trapdoor until she was a bit bigger, I mean it's not 100% perfect, but it's 90% perfect.
    My point is, slings are fun to feed, but you can't enjoy watching them as much when they are in the vials, unless they are super small like the jumping spiders, because there's not enough room to see very good.

  • @Dreamcaster1990
    @Dreamcaster1990 Рік тому +4

    I think there is a different level of enjoyment when you see slings vs full adults.
    Sling feedings are usually more informative videos so at least I learn something new about spiders and their growth rates.
    Sure we may see 1-5 takedowns but it's very different than say the 20 takedowns of adults where we know what to expect in a way.
    Idk if that made sense but I love all your videos so. Yeah!
    Love from Canada

    Maybe you could put an arboreal insect species like stick insects in there to cohabit in the upper area of that huge enclosure with Bella. Little jumping spiders might also do well if you could feed them with something like flightless fruit flies. None of these species should be a threat to a huge terrestrial tarantula.

    Keeping her in that nice large terrarium is fine, people seem to forget that in the wild they don’t live in little small boxes but in a whole jungle. I don’t know what kind of tarantula you have in there but the way your talking about it makes me think of a Goliath Bird Eater.
