‘Sweet fang action... that’s what we like’
THATS WHAT WE LOVE!!!
Every one here should sub to your channel it is well worth it👍
I think you should definitely sell some of your enclosure ideas, if you did I know for sure I’d buy some
Same
Same
Same here I would definitely buy some!
same, really cool ones
Same
You should really consider the idea of making kits to send out for fans. It would make it easier on us to get everything dark den perfect and id buy a few myself
i agree i personly would love one of these enclosures
Absolutely yes
Yes please get it done I'll buy a few aswell
Tarantula don’t wanna do what you want! Strong independent spider!
dont need no Hooman!
These tarantulas have 4 left feet and still dance better than me. KEEP UP THE GREAT CONTENT
That was amazing
My first t arrived today (brachypelma albopilosum) and I am so hyped to finally have a spooder :)
Have 2 Slings of them, also my first one (along with an N. incei which died while moulding), but i havent seen them since i put them in bigger enclosures with enough substrate. All i get to see of them are tiny holes in the dirt :'D
Was my first T too 😂😂
Omg precious! Did ya pick a name?
@@vivimage2928 I'm letting the tarantula sub reddit choose and so far it looks like it'll be called Keith
@JPs Pet nation I already want another and it hasn't even been 24 hours lol
Is it just me that is terrified of spiders but loves watching them in his vid
Great content keep it up 👍👍🤙🔥
I'd be on board with you selling the larger enclosures as DIY kits as well.
You should sell the enclosures you make! They’re amazing & im sure lots of people agree.
make a collab with exotics lair: "Watering tarantulas in the dark den", would be awesome!
considering how many water dishes I have, and how shallow they are...it would be a rather short video xD
@@TheDarkDen but that would be fine also :D
100th like from me. 😁
@@Spiderantula thx m8
The Dark Den just wanted to say thank you so much for doing what you’re doing. I have been absolutely terrified of any kind of spider out there no matter how big or small but a while ago I started to get into learning about insects and only recently came across your videos and exotics videos. I have to say that the combination of my new interest in bugs and both of your guys’ channels (since you guys do such an amazing job showcasing these beautiful creatures) I have almost absolved entirely my fear of arachnids. I absolutely cannot wait until I am knowledgeable enough to get my own first tarantula!!
Wowow 21 minutes of my favourite youtuber, can not be better
Never been so early! You have cured my fear of spiders and I am building up to get my first T! I love you so much. You make my Monday’s and Friday’s so much better! Keep it up!!
Not hating but how the fuck can Videos cure fear of spiders 😂
@@bratkoo1370 For a lot of people, the fear of spiders comes from childhood brainwashing and misinformation and with each bit of knowledge gained, some of that fear goes away and the fascination grows; thus, videos of people interacting with spiders and remaining completely safe goes a long way in curing a fear of them.
Elise yes you are right with that partly but seeing tarantulas in videos and actually having them is very very different. She has my respect tho for gathering informations about them before getting one ☝️ I think a tarantula is a great pet and watching his videos definitely show how to do so. Good luck with your first tarantula when you got it!
Bratkoo He cured my fear of spiders and now I have 18. Explain that
I am super glad you tried this out! I thought it was a creative experiment, It inspires me to do more with my enclosures , plus it's fun watching you create too!
Getting my first T's this Tuesday! Super excited, and it's all thanks to stumbling across your channel over a year ago. I like the enclosure design - especially the second piece of glass on the lid so it fits nicely and doesn't slide around.
Dude, your videos are AWESOME!
You should definitely sell those as a DIY i would totally buy one
I just loved this video, partly because when your adorable tarantulas escape, it's always so much fun to watch how you talk to them and chase them down! I also think your creativity is great. I agree each enclosure needs its own lid so they can be independent if needed, but the only way to come up with great ideas and designs is to go for it and take the chance, finding out the ways to improve on your original idea.
Just brought home my first ever sling. Thank you for being an awesome inspiration and i hope you keep being you :)
Awesome idea! 🤗💡 I really like the smaller version.
Watching all the way from Texas! Love your videos! You should definitely have a million subs!
Why is this so satisfying to watch 😍
Great video
I love the new enclosures! Great video 🕷️
I love this channel!!! I cant get enough watching your videos! Keep it up 👍
Improvements are always coming! It's a great learning experience, keeping T's. You learn something new almost every day
Love these videos!!! Always great quality and absolutely awesome footage!! Keep up the great and amazing work!! Love this channel!!!
Jesteś świetny w tym co robisz oby tak dalej
Heyy Petko!! Your videos are awsome!! You make’s me happy on Monday and more happy on fridays😆😆
I think your regular design with the front door is better but keep trying new things you always have good ideas
Absolutely make DIY kits! I'd buy them! Such a good idea
waited so loooong for new vid, and was so excited as it came out !!
Thanks for the shoutout! ^_^ I got my first T (a rosie) after seeing Sasha on your videos. Now I'm up to 13 tarantulas. 😅
A DIY enclosure kit would be so awesome! I love your enclosures so much more than the average pet shop types.
I love your channel and Exotics Lair !
really like the design, i think you should make lids for all so you can use them as singular enclosures or they convert to be stackable aswell, love your channel!
I haven't even bought my first tarantula yet, but watching you and exotics lair has already gotten me addicted to them from being able to learn from y'all.
I like the project! It's really cool. Also I love your videos. No skipping for me. :)
I love to do the whole diy stuff.... and I must say that I love the fact that you take it to such a great and very pleasant point of this hobby!! I will be getting my first t and I will be building a special cabinet for it... where I can expand my collection and grow with them!
Put a piece of glass underneath your bottom when you silicone it so that it’s slightly raised. Then glue that same piece onto your lid. This way you can still stack the enclosures while still having separate lids for each of them.
Hello Den, nice to see you again :)
Greetings from Poland!
Lovin ur channel an can’t wait to always see your new updates.
Absolutely loved watching this rehousing video. 😍. Definitely prefer it to not be as many, just only two enclosures stacked bit awkward with three especially when it comes to feeding / watering times etc, you have to keep taking all the stacks off individually? But it most definitely does save on space though, plus they're all very beautiful, really lovely display of all your Tarantula's, looks better because you can see T's clearly. Definitely looks way better than plastic containers. Great inspiration video especially enjo the DIY part. Beautiful. Thanks Petko. 😁😊❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Live & learn!!! Keep up the GREAT work!!!
I think you're right, with a few improvements these would be perfect ! Good build, good aeration.
By adding a separate lid you would indeed have practical, safe enclosures that look clean and cohesive !
I love the enclosures, specially the small stackable ones, the bigger ones are great too but like you said too impractical for stacking, great for individual T's.
I could see a stack of 2 working well! But having the separate lids as a backup plan is always a good idea for sure~
you are so creative and talented. I love to watch your videos :)
Well at least I know how to say Grammostola actaeon now
love ya kat
I forgot it already 😂
I'm going to the Hamburg Reptile show April 27 for my first T!! It's all thanks to you Petko: wish me luck!
All of my tarantulas are from there! Definitely do research on multiple beginner species and have them all in mind before you go. Some can be good beginners while others might be a bit more challenging to start with.
Also get there really really early. Like, arrive at 8:00 to 8:30. Even then the line is going to be full and parking lot will be full as well. Although if you've been there before you already know this bit. :p
Awesome!!
@@josephtalarigo4243 so helpful! 🖤
Definitely my favorite youtuber
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE APARTMENT HOUSING SYSTEM, but, I do see how difficult it is gonna be to feed & water your little beasties!
I think from a creative aspect its beautiful!
As usual great video, DIY kit great idea
My favorite vloger woaaaah
Great video as always
Brand new to the channel, and I LOVE IT!!
Amazing content, I've been binge watching your videos 😁
The enclosures u build r so much nicer then anything u can get at a pet supply store. Thanks for the feeding video I really enjoy them. Wonderful idea to sell enclosure kits, people will love to buy them but a hassle for u to package and ship. The glass enclosure is so much nicer to display ur animals. Pet Mica for me please😻 she is so sweet and shows she loves u😻
great video (as always ;D) i like the idea of the stacking system! and you do it well! but, for my taste, its a bit too dark to see the T´s inside of the enclosure when they stacked - maybe its better in person than in the video :D i dont know
greetings from Germany :D
I found your channel thanks to your boii Exotics Lair and you’re awesome to watch as well 🙌🏼
Beautiful spiders. I love spiders.
I would dig the whole enclosure kit thing you spoke of. Could be a way to bring a little more profit into The Dark Den and would be very beneficial to new owners who want to be more hands on with the hobby. As long as the glass would make the trip to the US, I would totally buy some.
So cool to watch..i love the dark den!!!!
It looks gooooood. I love the design and size. It would be really great if you made a kit.
YES sell these as a kit i would for sure order!!!
Your videos are amazing!
I think if you can make stackable enclosures where you can fold down part of the front side so you don’t have to remove the top and closures to open it to feed them may be more practical even if more difficult to build and design. Keep the videos coming this channel is awesome
I for one would be willing to purchase your arboreal setup as a DIY kit if at all possible. I really like the style you did with the "blind sided door" compartment of the inner den idea.
I would love to purchase a kit from you!! It save us finding people to cut glass for us!🤗🤷♀️
Here’s a tip I learned from building enclosures. Buy some 90° brackets from your local hardware store and line up all your glass and glue the brackets on to the outside of the glass for each side and once it’s all together with the brackets and hot glue, silicone the inside joints of all the glass and let cure. Then you can use hot water or a heat gun to remove the hot glue and brackets. Saves a lot of time for me.
Truthfully they look good but as you said they are better as single tanks, your T's are looking great man!
Happy Keeping!!
I think using the bottom of one enclosure as a lid for another is a good idea in theory, but a bit impractical, at least with larger enclosures. Also, maybe you could make a jig (a device that holds a piece(s) of work and guides the tools operating on it/them) to help with making enclosures. It will help you keep everything squared up and also hold the parts in place while the silicone cues. Would save you a lot of time as well.
That shipping idea is amazing!!! I had an idea but like for different types of enclosures. I've always wanted my enclosures for arboreals to open in the front like yours but no where here sells those and I don't have the supplies or abilities to make my own so I would definitely buy a kit from you!! I'm from South Africa though so I don't know if you're able to ship this far
My opinion: I think it’s very practical to have enclosures of all sizes as a hotel with multiple tarantulas but maybe not large enclosures for full grown tarantulas maybe just two(for grown adults!) I was really intrigued and couldn’t look away it looks really really cool like that stacked up! I watch every one of your videos dating back sense you first started I love them!
i love with the last rehouse that girl, she kicks hairs at you last second
It was awesome idea to save place and it looks beautiful to me
I would totally buy enclosures from you if you started doing diy kits. Love the design of them.
Love your videos!
As the saying goes, practise makes perfect ;) I like the idea of these enclosures and im sure soon you will make them as perfect as you want them to be ^^
It's like a great idea that creates more problems than it solves XD
If you want to be able to stack big enclosures like this, each one still needs a separate lid because the spiders can climb glass as soon as one is removed, Ideally the lid of one should fit in the bottom of the other tank to prevent slipping and sliding. What you can do is silicone some decorative molding or a strip of glass, etc around the top of each cage that creates that little 'lip' you need. Alternatively you can use pegs or circular glass insets on the top lid that match the bottom of the other enclosure.
I still get the impression you'd be much better off with a hinge door on the front of the enclosure, because it's annoying having to take them apart one by one to feed them, especially past a certain size.
Also I'm mildly concerned that as you scale up, the silicone on the bottom glass panel's going to give out under the weight of the substrate and the whole enclosure will plummet through the bottom XD
"This is tooootally unnecessary" had me cracking up xD
I think that the tower look is great and the design is good . Now cut a flip down door in the front about a inch to feed or change . But still have it detachable. Same thing just have flip down doors for each enclosure. Make them out of plastic with a lil pull handle . . Your doing a great job I hope my message gets to you . Thumbsit up .
I love the time jumps! Perhaps time jump to exoticslair and do feeding video... "dark lair crunches by tarantula's". The new enclosures fit best with seperate lids i think. It's easier to feed them. Anyway, awesome video!! ("time jump" is it monday already????)
The Idea is great! And I do not think that it is that hard to have all three together, maybe if you could create small doors on side of the enclosure for throwing in food for them it would be amazing and a lot more practical for saving space and also feeding them and watering enclosure. (I do not know if it is possible to cut glass so you can make a door but if there is a way I think it would be awesome idea). Love your channel, please continue, I really enjoy your videos! ❤🕷
I love your idea you did an awesome job
I swear you are the most entertaining UA-camr ever! I used to fear spiders but seeing you with them makes me feel better. What spider would recommend to start with?
I would ABSOLUTELY buy this DIY set, I'd recommend FedEx shipping with a business affiliate account so that the glass doesn't get broken from being tossed around like in the post office lol
Make the enclosure separate, but your idea of double ventilation holes is super great plus you put those holes higher up in the enclosure, but I really suggest you to make those enclosure separately for each spiders
Awesome piece of engineering!!
Another awesome video!
Looks amazing
Wow you’re measuring must be exact! Great video
awesome rehouse! I agree I think the enclosures stacked like that looks so dope but it will probably be a little impractical when it comes to feedings and such and if you wouldn't have mentioned it, I definitely would have thought both of those were brachypelma vagans!
21 minutes? I'm tired but now I'm also excited!
Moving them all at one go will be a scary experience...
Please PLEASE make DIY enclosures and send them to people who want them I will surely buy one!!! I want a tarantula so badly and gonna possibly be getting one next month for my birthday 🎂 and would love one of yours!! They look so amazing 😉
"Happy Tarantula - Woooo!!" Hahaha. Really amuses me when your taratulas don't co-operate 💋
Stack-able only really works for smallish enclosures, now every time you want to feed them you need to take the entire enclosure off and the T can easily escape while you're finding a safe place for the top enclosure
Yes please!! Create a store with diy enclosure with shipping, so we can ordered like that one to please..i really like those enclosures...
This video is a high note for my bad day
Nive man! Ahhh long time since i made dome glassterrarium now! I have to do it again!
The diy thing is a good idea I'd buy it myself.
