"This doesn't look like a natural death, this tarantula was murdered... "
Detective Petko is on the case 🔎
I don't believe he'll find the murder weapon frfr😳
Was bout to comment the same 😂😂
Next time on “Murder in the Dark Den”… one by one they disappeared. No one was safe, till only one remained! O.o
The way he pronounced and annunciated" murdered" was my favorite!!!!! I love Petko
he he he
One of the main things that I love about this channel is that you don't stage things or make them up for a video. You are legit. You also care about your animals and your subscribers not that many people do. They care about the fame instead of the viewers. But you definitely care a lot about your people. I look forward to watching your channel for a while.
Agree so much
If he cared, he wouldn't put them in a communal where the animal have a chance at eating each other. He also wouldn't poke the animals for a threat pose just for the camera.
@@EarthsGeomancer things have to be tested for the sake of knowledge you surely can't be that dense
@@EarthsGeomancer many sources online state this species is communal, and many disagree. this was a necessary experiment, this is a very small hobby so something like this is very important info. you just must be misinformed or ignorant.
Exotic...lair....mhm...not a fan of this dude...
Wanted a commune, wound up with a Thunderdome.
Oh can't we just get... Beyond Thunderdome?
It was Miss Scarlet in the Billiards room with the wrench.
Petko: murder
Linda: you rang?
Lol Linda came out to be nosey like "who what who died🤔🤣🤣
Those smaller tarantula's probably prayed for you to rescue them from that MASSIVE one lol
It seems like they could be communal under special circumstances but it isn't worth the risk and we should treat them like they are not.
Pretty much. They might tolerate each other if they are over fed and have enough space. But the second they get hungry and are close to each other... The tolerance probably decreases.
I wouldn't say the communal setup FAILED, I would say that the limit of Hysterocrates gigas in one enclosure is about 9 per that amount of space, at their current size (It would drop further as they got bigger). If the enclosure was twice as big, you might've ended up with 18 living tarantulas.
It’s not that so much as like pokies the older they get the less they tolerate each other, tarantula communals are all around a bad idea unless they are M. balfouri
Petko, ive watched you since the dsys you had just a shelf full of turantulas, on your sofa. Its been such a wonder watchinf over these years you progress and grow!!😀 lovely to see a youtuber who deserves the views and subs you have 🙃 !!!
Me too:)
I always love how you show your mistakes and learn with us! You don’t harass the tarantulas for views and are such a lovely person ❤
Petko your reaction to a non-existant tarantula attack, never ceases to entertain! Maybe you could specially landscape and rehouse Linda into that big enclosure. Wish you were able to get some peacock spiders from Australia to add to your collection.
I love the fact that even though you handle and surround yourself with spiders all the time, you still crap yourself like the rest of us do. Keep up the great work. I appreciate every video you make.
9 left is pretty good considering the enclosure size,the weaker ones got eaten and some may have died from natural causes or bad molts,plus one dominate female ,very interesting video from the dark den 👍
I’d think it’d be neat if you kept the spider killer at least lol. She’d be one of a few that the other spiders in the den would be terrified of cause she’d have a bad record (like a prisoner)😂.
Maybe I will!
As sad as the loss is I'm actually quite happy someone with a big following such as yourself tested the theory even if it did prove to fail, at least we now know for certain that you probably shouldn't be keeping H.Gigas communally. Interested to see what you'll do with that huge enclosure now though, maybe Linda would love it!
I wouldn't say this is a fail they lasted pretty long considering everything plus I think if he has givin them more space earlier he'd probably have more alive
@@randykai2942 At that point, it‘s really not a communal anymore, it‘s just individual specimens living in the same enclosure. H. gigas aren‘t a communal species, we‘ve known that for long.
That's what I love about this channel, Petko's experimenting and sharing his findings with us regardless of whether they're "successful" or not. The true spirit of science!
"so I don't know why she is out" (when talking about Olinda) - my brother in christ, she just heard about a tarantula murder, of course she is worried enough about her safety to take a little peek
Not stressful for me hahaha but I’m glad you jumped out of your skin as it means I’m not the only one mate 👏😂😂
have you ever thought to darken the catch cup so it looks like a safe dark hole to hide in
Hmmmm!
@@TheDarkDen Red! many other bugs cant see red light, maybe spiders have that same issue, you could see through a red tinted bottle but they would be more comfortable, at least if they also struggle with red
@@ilivetoflyxD they do struggle with red, actually!
I'd live to see this done at a bigger scale same amount of tarantulas but jus a bigger setups as they get older
5:58 my soul left my body when you jumped😂😂
"buy nice enclosures" zooms in failing door.
Interesting that the tarantula was just killed but not eaten. I'd assume that all the other ones were eaten since you weren't finding random corpses all the time. I'm excited to see how the big girl does on her own!
You should keep the biggest one as a memory of this! She crazy as well 🤣
Such a great video that I decided to be late for work and watch the entire thing. I'm so glad that I can view fast spiders or spiders at all. 1.5 years of research and I'm thoroughly enchanted with them!
Thanks for all the videos that helped me overcome my arachnophobia. ❤
Linda is helping to investigate. She saw everything and could be a great witness, considering how many of her eyes witnessed the crime. 🕷🕸❤
hey awesome video and conclusion!! very responsible of you to change previous video descriptions so no one makes the mistake of trying to house these together. Great work! thanks for the content.
Yeah, he sure is a good person. He didn’t have to do that but updating info helps everyone. I still think it can be more successful then what it was, but now people know more going ahead. In the end he ended up with a beautiful and strong tarantula. =]
Well I kinda told you like a year ago that that communual is not a good idea. :/... but actualy more survived than I expected
Speaker sound.
Petko, I'm from montenegro and I'm loving this upload schedule, I have something for you, I am currently breeding some wolf spiders and I can offer you some slings! If I'm successful, found you not long ago and you are AMAZING.
Cool. You guys are neighbors, I hope, that you get along.
@@johanneabelsen1644 I have to inform you that it's usually the opposite in the Balkans.
@@ahmetkerem4769 I know.
I was in my early 20s, when the whole Balkan War happened.
@@johanneabelsen1644 Ah, I see. It's good to see people that are 130 years old using internet like this.
Nope. It was in the 1990s.
I tried this back in like 1999, I had the same result. One was much bigger than the other 3, then the other 2, then the other 1. Those 2 lived together for over a year without issue, then there was an issue. I think they need way more room to keep as communal.
If they had a much larger enclosure they probably would have been fine.
I'd love to keep a tarantula, I feel I have the perfect room for it but the problem is I'm jumpy so if the spider went into protect mode I'd end up hurting it when I jumped and panicked
Man..im really getting use to holding my breath every time you jump...😯
I bought a Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens today. I drove almost two hours, and the guy was nice enough to gift me another one as a freebie! Cool dude.
You got to keep the biggest one. She is a killer! Can't let her free of the Dark Den. Who knows what trouble that might cause.
So fascinating.. but when you huge one was spotted I was in shock 😮the difference in size was insane
Where are all the carcasses of the rest of the many tarantulas you put in initially? I genuinely thought you would have found many fangs or other parts of the spiders that wouldn't decompose very easily 🤔
"Crambles" you crack me up dude
Another great case for M. Balfouri being the only true communal
Very interesting...🤔💭 A murdering tarantula is not what I expected to be your next video! 😳 I'm glad you still have some survivors!!!
10:55 Remember that old Mentos commercial where the spider body slams that guy, that's what I was expecting to happen😂
There's been a murder!!! I'm glad you managed to save the rest from West must have been the Queen of T's ❤️
H.gigas is primarily fossorial. If you wanted to keep them communally, there should of been a lot deeper substrate. My communal (before I serarated for breeding) was a 40 gal tank filled 3/4 of the way with substrate. They build elaborate, deep tunnels. Each of my mature females are in 20gal tanks. Filled most of the way with substrate. Never had issues if they all had enough tunnel space.
Wow a tarantula detective case 😅
Your videos always amaze me. Thank you
You can also add a new thumbnail with "Failed" on it to older videos
Hello petko. I was thinking that tou can try to attach a mini camera to a wire and use it to check the inside of the burrows. You know something like the wire the doctors use for surgeries. It would be really cool and interesting
It's called an arthroscope and you can buy them on ebay pretty cheaply.
Hello great video information and updates Petcko
This was such an amazing informative video! My seven year old daughter and I love watching and learning.
Great video! Now you got me wondering what will go in that enclosure next... 🤔
This video was a little nerve racking for you. But I really enjoyed it. You show things as they happen. Thank you.
This was such a fun interesting video!
my only complaint is that the intro to this isnt a play on CSI Miami
There has to be a way to somehow incorporate a GoPro inside of a den to record up close what they do when nobody is around
Fabulous video as always Petko. I'm going to put a link to this video on my website, I've always said h. Gigas isn't communal despite some people thinking it is. You've just proved me right. Thanks! 😁
Well, they ARE communial, just until a certain point. So it seems
Awesome Video dark den
Big Bertha was doing workkkkkk!
Greetings from southern Ontario Canada I really enjoyed the video and I know understand these unique creatures that roam our world even though I'm trying to understand them better thanks for the presentation
Unlike Monocentropus balfouri, Hysterocrates gigas is not communal. They will kill each other if they meet...
12:02: Now, THAT'S what I call attitude!!🤣👍
Excellent video 🇬🇧 👍
Your enclosures are looking top notch!
Think in nature the resolts would been even lower then 9 out of 50 so not bad after all,also great looking T’s
I want that spider bad! The big one that had the keys to the prison yard!
the entertainment factor of this vid was def off the mark compared to most of ur other vids lol :D
It's weird being an aracnophobe and being actively excited to see spiders 😂
Same! I’m constantly asking myself why I watch stuff like this, yet I can’t NOT watch it-it’s so interesting!
A very captivating video! Very informative and educational… Thankyou
I have to say this is the first time i have had bad emotions towards any of the Ts because there was so many of them and now there is one fat one left probably terrorising all the smaller Ts in the there and is probably why they were hiding outside in the dirt while the fat one roams happily eating all the others and the roaches.
I don't feel this way when a female eats a male but for some reason i feel really horrible thoughts when i see the big T in that inclosure. Am i alone in feeling this, or does anyone else feel the same? 😢
the detective Petko Holmes🕵️🫣😂
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you struggle this much catching T’s.
I've had ts die that didn't go into a death curl at all had em just setting there like normal in the spot they wait for food
Maybe the murdered tarantula was a criminal in the hood, hassling the smaller tarantulas. They took justice into their own hands ...er, legs. Fangs?
The size difference is wild
Alpha makes little sense it's not their mom/dad like in wolves it's their sybling APEX HUNGRY GIGAS now that is what comes to my mind
love this video!
Maybe just a simple case of overcrowding? Maybe 4 or 5 to start with would have been better...
Sad about the other one that didn't make it, and that I live in another continent so unable to purchase one of this Tarantulas.
Nice Drone Hunter T-shirt
Serious jump scare video this week 😂😂
Yo petko vids are always great, you were the one that got me into T and also are you going to BTS expo this year
I've never clicked on a video so fast. True crime and tarantulas? Sold.
A small adventure!
Wow!
Quite the conclusion to this adventure.
Do you plan to use the big enclosure for someone else? I think it would be wonderful for a centipede?
Anytime is time for a communal video. 🕷🕷
Crazy how it looked like no animals in there and there was really a bunch of tarantulas
Jedan od boljih videa . Grančica rulez
Saluti dall'Italia
I like your video's so much ❤
You should make a dark den catch cup now.
Living for the chaos 😂
😂 I love how Petko pronounces some words "that's the way the cookie crammbles" 😂 and he says "hum hum hum" when he's trying to do the hm hm hmm in English I've been watching his channel since the couch days and if you have as well,you know when that was. ✌🏼
His accent and soft voice is one of the absolute most endearing things 🤣🤣
@@asylumental yes I agree. I love his Croatian accent. When he says the name of tarantula called redunkus he says rih doon koos 😂I love it!
Happy new year Petko! Sorry about your communal but, you still have nine nice size Tarantulas.
Wowww she got sooooooooo big! Specially compared to her other sisters! Omgawd! 😱
That was fun! 😄
Love gigas , second fav bitey thing 😂 great video
A murder you say? I do declare.
I hope u keep the big one and name her something special
For the big female tarantula... You need to make her scary and dark enclosure and she needs a famous female serial killer name.
this video was hilarious omg 🤣🤣🤣
