im thinking bout getting one and naming her Rasputia lol
Honestly, my dream tarantula since I was a teen! Gorgeous spider!
Same
Never knew you were a subscriber
We will be expecting one on your channel once the building is done. 🧐👀
wow antscanada order na sir 🙂🙂🙂
Just curious, what stopped you from getting one?
I am absolutely terrified of spiders and can't even be in the same room with a tarantula. My boyfriend thinks I'm a weirdo for watching these as I either flip out about the tiniest spider that makes it's presence known or become paralysed with fear if the spider is bigger than a dime. Your videos are amazing and I find myself being able to tolerate spiders a little bit more after watching each video that you post. Your little velvet spider has grown on me and I find it very cute. Thank you for being you and helping me overcome my fear little by little.
Jumping spiders, the cute factor is off the charts
@@mrspeigle1 it took a bit for me to come around but when I watched the video where she introduced it (the velvet is Wednesday right? I'm too tired to go back through the videos right now) I was like "ohhh that one is frikkin cute! Wait, wtf am I saying?!" For some reason Kat's demeanor is very calming, it's easy for me to watch a whole video without getting anxious and have to watch something else.
@@irishlove86 cat has a few jumping spider videos as well, there's actually a video of my favorite species which looks like it has cat ears ua-cam.com/video/N21gL57xknE/v-deo.html
Also alot of interesting facts in this one.
I'm so glad that you're coming around to them! Look, before you know it, you're going to be getting your own jumping spider and then your very own tarantula!😄😄😄
@@amypanddirtytoo1926 scorpions don't scare me at all (I don't consider myself a true arachnophobe because of that) so maybe I'll start with one of those eventually 😅
I’ve had 3 Goliath Bird Eaters and ALL of them have been really gentle and never flicked hairs. They’re a lot more passive than people think if you’re gentle with them
Any I've encountered are the living definitions of gentle giants.
I think most spiders are unless they’re wild. Just too much arachnophobia in the world 😓
@@jilliancrawford7577 That actually sounds wholesome :3
I think it depends on the species.
When I was a kid there were wild tarantulas that were very friendly.
One even crawled up my leg & then my arm & hung out on my shoulder!
It stayed for awhile & then climbed down & away. Such a beauty!☺️
What happend to them? I heard they are hard to keep
your channel helps with my arachnophobia. it shows me there isn't much to be scared of and that spiders are usually more scared of you than the other way around.
right!!
Also, they eat roaches. what's not to love about that!
Who were you FaceTiming 👀? Zelda is gorgeous! I’m glad you finally caved and bought yourself one of the best species in the hobby (maybe I’m biased) 🕷!
Nice surprise cameo!
INTERFERENCE.
REPTILIATUS.
TEN YARD PENALTY.
REPEAT FIRST DOWN.
think it was Exotics Lair
Ur do right! Very underated T. The pinks and purples see absolutely stunning. I can't wait for my apophysis to get this big
No way jabronee the best is caribena versi change my mind.
I almost expected you to name her Linda for a moment there to mess with Petko lol! Zelda fits her though! Very pretty big girl!
breath of the wild
I would have named her Gohma, but Zelda is a much better name.
No one can resist the ultimate chonk of a spider! She really is beautiful.
✋✋✋

Having to be brave to navigate around one's own pet certainly gives a curious perspective to pet ownership! Reminds me of many years ago when I briefly kept a Southern African Rain Spider. A monstrous beast with a bad attitude and as fast as lightning. It escaped one time and my parents wanted to kick me out because I was too scared to go and search my room for my spider.
Oh no😭 how did you find the spider?
Very carefully and under a lot of pressure! 😅
Seems irresponsible to own an animal you’re afraid to wrangle, even if it’s just a display animal.
My brother and I terrified my poor Mom as teens with SOOO many of her worst nightmares! Reptiles, snakes, monitor lizard, Goliath bird eating tarantula, scorpions, and 2 pit vipers and there were a few escapes that drove her out of her own house for the night (and nearly got us thrown out!) But ultimately, my Mother was pretty easy going, all things considered!😆❤
Terrified of spiders but kinda excited at the same time!
This channel has helped aspects of my phobia. I’m ok with watching them now. Thank you 💚
Hmm, i know that feeling. I used to have arachnofobia as a kid, due to a cousin owning a tarantula and him lending me books about them, i owned my first Brachypelma smithi at 15, my phobia was gone very quickly.
I have a feeling one day you have your own collection of tarantulas in a while.
Greetings from the Netherlands!
@@gazepskotzs4 that’s amazing! I probably won’t have my own but I’m considering getting a snake some day. I have a friend who also had a fear of spiders. They jumped in head first and bought a tarantula and forced their self to take care of it. Now they’re not afraid of them anymore. Not sure if they are comfortable enough to hold one, but they’ve since gotten 3 more.
Did the same for me ! But now I can pick them up even big ones and not run away screaming haha
I went to a pet store and actually stood watching the baby tarantulas, that were in plastic containers, but she's huge
@@ravenm6443 Snakes are awesome too! Are there reptile conventions/ markets near you? Because you see and learn a lot there,
plus they are just awesome! Ps sorry for my late response, youtube fails too show them to me.
Oh my goodness. This is an AMAZING addition to your collection. That's so cool I wish I could see one of these in person!!!!
Thank you for talking about her urticating hairs and wearing appropriate protection. Some people might think it's cool to not even wear gloves, but I think you're smarter and therefore *cooler* for gearing up- _especially_ with a new spider whose temperment you don't know yet. Cheers! 😊
Kat, I absolutely love your videos! You always brighten my day when you post a new one ❤🕷 hope you're doing well and your family also.😊 stunning T. Stirmi by the way!
Your friend did an amazing job picking her out for you! She is DEFINITELY among one of the prettiest I’ve seen. Congrats!
Bought my first jumper because of you and your channel and she arrive today. She is settling in nicely, now I just have to hope my pupae hatch for her dinner. Thanks Kat
Oh wow, love them so much! I am jealous lol!
@@gazepskotzs4 join the fun! I stress about mine all the time as she's my first but it is so enjoyable.
@@Patristica lol, i m sure i will join the fun , hopefully pretty soon. But why are you stressing about it? I m curious..
@@gazepskotzs4 I was anxious about her eating but we got there in the end, she clearly just wasn't hungry and I was an over anxious parent. She's been here for two weeks now and is very happy!
@@Patristica Being overanxious , especially with an animal that has to get used to a new home sounds like me, i can relate.
But it is good to hear that your new pet eats well now. Are you thinking about breeding themnin the future.
It never gets old Kats yelp when she feeds love it!
just so you know those roots on the pothos only need to be about a inch or two long to be able to root properly in the soil! :)) it should only take three weeks or a month to grow roots in the water. I’ve been propagating pothos plants for friends and family for a while now and just recently started adding them to my tarantula enclosure
So happy for you. Zelda is absolutely stunning !
Yours is sooooo gentle and very calm!! Im happy for you ♡♡♡
woww, this is hardcode. nice new tarantula
used to be terrified of spiders, even the speck sized ones.
Now I absolutely love them. The bird-eater is pretty.
Zelda is gorgeous! Love how her enclosure looks, too. Always enjoy your videos, Kat.
Awesome Kat, so glad you got one xxx
I couldn’t help but keep constantly rewatching the first two seconds of the video, that reaction was so funny to watch.
I literally have dreams that I have baby tarantulas in an enclosure and I'm trying to rehouse them and they just bolt everywhere and then I wake up. I don't even own tarantulas but I love these videos ❤️
Congratulations Kat on your big girl! I had a T. blondi back in the day. She was slow moving and didn't kick hairs until one day I caught her in a bad mood and got nailed. They are incredibly fast when they want to be.
Be safe and enjoy her, just be more careful than I was with mine. You continue to be my favorite UA-camr. Every blessing.
Zelda is magnificent and her enclosure is perfect!. Nice video.
absolutely awesome..... just the lift I needed thanks Kat!.... x
God what an amazing arachnid !
Kat this is awesome! And yet again amazing timing dropping the vid while I'm at work.
Welcome to the club! They're lovely spiders, very misunderstood. Sometimes people think they're aggressive but they're not, just enthusiastic. My Bella is just the same. Just wait to see Zelda in pre-moult, waddling about with a giant, darkened abdomen, it's a treat!
so entertaining and informative! The Phidippus Project loves your videos.
Jealous! She is amazing! In 2010 I visited a friend who had an adult female T.blondi and in person these spiders are breathtaking. I still prefer OWs but Theraphosa are insanely beautiful.
What a beautiful tarantula. Can see that being a future buy for me. Love the enclosure set up.
It makes me so happy to see you do a bioactive set up 💕 looks great!
Awesome video! Cool Tarantula!
I was waiting for a new video! And was watching your old ones and missed this one when it came out 😂🤦🏻♀️..
I bought my T stirmi 2 years ago, always wanted one and I love that I decided to spend the not small amount of money I paid for her. Got her from a responsible breeder I know personally and she’s captivity bred, was a not tiny sling 🥰
Now she’s eating like a machine and growing like there’s no tomorrow 😂
I rehoused her into a huge exoterra tank. Don’t know if I have to rehouse her again, I wouldn’t be unhappy about no more rehousings... she has some temper issues and doesn’t like me 🤣
At the moment, she eats 1-3 roaches, superworms or grasshoppers a day. She usually stops eating some days before molting, does her molting process, waits for the exoskeleton to harden and starts with eating like crazy again 🥳
She‘s the only T that I see drinking from her water dish, despite the fact I provide her enough well watered feeders and the humidity in the enclosure that she needs.
Have fun with your goliath, dear Kat 💕 it‘s beautiful 💕 greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
Kat! I’m so excited you got a T Stirmi they are gorgeous, I just got one myself! 🥰 they are amazing Ts
When I had my 2 Goliath Tarantulas, I kept them in 20 gallon long aquariums. At the time, both were much larger than yours, but they had room to move around. I 💕 love the way you arranged the enclosure for your Tarantula. I never knew much about the kind of plants to use, so I opted for other decorations, like miniature cattle skulls that the pet stores sell or flat pieces of rock. Also, I would feed them mice once in a while, crickets, mealworms or large hissing cockroaches!
Just bought a small terrestrial crib from Tarantula Cribs for our new Brazilian black baby. I really love the way their cribs are designed, and hope they are offering the gigantic size by the time we need it. That is the perfect size enclosure for any large tarantula! Thanks so much for the referral to TC. Our new B'🖤 has already bulldozed itself a nice underground lair. Can't wait to upgrade to a larger crib!
Awesome video, thank you.
Love that you named her Zelda! One of my favorite gaming franchises! Shes a beauty😍
There's just something about T. Stirmi, not just their size, but something is special about these T's that i just can't put my finger on!
Congrats on the new addition!
Hello great video rehousing Kat
That is one beautiful tarantula, great enclosure. great job hun😉
I've been waiting for you to take this plunge, lol! You won't be let down, I promise. My T. stirmi Zilla is a beast and I love to watch him eat...you can actually hear these big fellas coming to ambush their prey 🖤🕷What a beautiful gal you have!
Usually I can't look at spiders but the way you presented it made me feel at ease. I hope there's a cover for that enclosure lol
I was offered one of 3 from my old work and did not to but I do find them very beautiful. It's awesome that you got one, congrats.
What a sweet heart of a spider so chill
Beautiful tarantula!!! One of my “Bucket Lists” tarantulas. Just haven’t found the right one yet. The enclosure looks great as well.
I can’t believe how chill she is!
I'm terrified of arachnids and yet I can't stop watching your channel. Been hooked since I saw your lil velvet spider vid. Low-key helps with my arachnaphobia ^-^
Was wondering when you'd get one of these bad bois :D
Beautiful set up😍
What a beautiful inclosure been going on a binge watch of your videos today.
Very nice enclosure
Great timing on this video. I actually just got my first tarantula today. A tiny T. Vagans sling from Fear Not Tarantulas.
5 comment what is good kat I love seeing all your amazing tarantulas you always inspire me keep up the amazing work Hope one day I'll be able to get a tarantula but my mom won't let me right now 👍💯💪💯👍👍💯💪💯 That's why I always enjoy your content congratulations on 90,000 subscribers to
Nice stirmi! My big stirmi had a blister on her abdomen when I first got her, but it went away after a couple molts. Welcome to the Goliaths!
Thanks so much for the business!! I hope you enjoy her as much as I did! She molted about 3 weeks ago and I have it, if you would like it. That enclosure is fantastic! Thanks again!!
thank you!
@@tarantulakat How do you get the name Zelda? Like, Zelda from the game? Or thought of it?
The fact Dayyan FaceTimed you while filming 😂
I love the intro teases!
I'm yelling at my phone, put the lid on! She is a giant and I love their walk, they know they r boss! New subscriber as of now.
OMG I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!! I just got my first tarantula and she's a curly hair lol. these are so fun to watch :D
Ohhh you finally got a Theraposa!! She’s beautiful, congrats!
I’m literally watching all of your vids lol there amazing
Woooowww, she's such a beautiful tarantula. And even a sweetheart.
This is an amazing enclosure!
This is so freaking cool!
great video, kat.
Yesssssssssss!!!!!!! So glad you got one.
Love your new T, Kat!!!! I'm in the same boat as you- while I do love this species and think they are so cool, I just don't know if I am equipped enough to keep them as a pet. But maybe one day!!!
And also, a little tip for you- a general rule for potting cuttings in soil is to do so when the roots are at least 2 inches long☺ so i definitely think your pothos was good to go.
The molting part of tarantulas freaks me out soooo much along with feedings and when they run lol
i’m so happy for you!!!
OMG I HAVE WANTED ONE FOR YEARS😍
Freshly molted Theraphosas are beautyful. And with the massive size they get, they are a must have tarantula in every collection!
Superb arachnid,absolutely superb...
I got waaaayyyy too excited when I saw this title!!!!
Congratulations! Beautiful Arachnid. Bird eaters are positively the best of all worlds.
😊
That moment when I have a severe fear of spiders, but I'm also very interested in learning about them because they are interesting. But looking at them ;w; the spooks. I'll probably have nightmares tonight about spiders, but it's worth it. AI just really like you and I love watching the re-housing, putting together the new home for the tarantula. And she is beautiful, even with her scary legs XD
glad you’re here!
Gorgeous and great job !!
This girl is super gentle, I love it!
good job Kat ! Every collection needs a T stirmi ! Awsome species
She's like oh thank you momma ❤❤ am I the only one who baby talks their trantula?
OMG So Beautiful yet Scary in the BEST WAY!!!!
Very well done.
That’s sooo awesome 👏🏻 beautiful creature 🥰
Look at that science! Haha awesome video
Another fab video. I like the colour of your hair too 😍
I’ve been waiting for this
SAFETY FIRST!!!
Also what an awesome specimen 😍
When that spider grabbed that worm I screamed and dropped the phone🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love the deep brown velvet looking texture of her.
I don't know why I am watching, seriously don't know why...totally creeped out...but much respect to you and your love for these creatures
I just got a T. stirmi, it was a tough choice between the two. I finally succumbed to the burgundy because it seems the majority of them get larger than the blondis in captivity. Excellent addition, my dear!
Kat is my favorite keeper
Zelda is such a good name for her!! Beautiful! 🤩🤩
Gorgeous! Her color matches yours, I can see why your friend chose her for you 🥰
Awwe she's so sweet!!
T stirmi are amazing! Those hairs tho! I had to start wearing a hoodie and something around my neck along with gloves and a mask. The hairs would just mess me up! Good luck with the new addition.
