      @@wollewolf9863 The ones we have here in Utah are pretty hardy little buggers. I haven't had any species from anywhere else but from my research they are very similar to each other in care much like preying mantis are. They are pretty short lived though. Typically they live for a bit more than a year and when you just happen to find one on the porch (how I got all mine) they are usually middle aged. So as a pet it will only last for about 6 months or so. I think that there may be longer living species but I am more of a tarantula guy. Some tarantula females can live to 25-30 years.

    Okay, I just re-watched this video and I've gotta stand up for my beautiful widow ladies. Those males they eat after mating deserve it - lazy jerks hardly ever web up on their own, they let the ladies do all the hard work of catching and incapacitating prey, then they come along, wreck the web and steal it right out from under her. Rude.
    I love my widows. If the tarantulas aren't enough to keep people from dropping in without notice, mentioning that I have more than a few widows usually does the trick. ;)

    When I used to Live in Zanzibar many, many years ago, they had Giant African Millipedes there (Archispirostreptus gigas.).
    They used to call them the Tanganyika Trains as they would grow over 12 inches long.
    My dad used to collect and put any invertebrates that were found in the house into a large specimen bottle of formalin to keep to remind us when we got back to the UK of what he'd found. Some of the ones he had were upto 10 inches long. Still only 2/3rds fully grown!! :-))...

    Harvestmen are pretty creepy. They are often mistaken for spiders; particularly cellar spiders and also share the “daddy long-leg” moniker. I used to see harvestmen on Ken the Bug Guy’s webpage, and he had some different colored ones also. They are not venomous and they are not actually spiders at all. Black hole spiders are a good alternative, and are super easy to take care of. They looked like young wolf spiders when I saw and held one. The are fairly creepy and skittish.

    As for spiders, centipedes and scorpions..well, being born and raised in Hawaii - we had those huge Cane Spiders that were all over the place inside your home. Though non-venomous, they would scare the bejeezus out of me, especially if you move a bath towel and they're right under there - those things are FAST! I got stung by centipedes several times because they'd crawl up my pant legs without me knowing so when I'd sit down...BAM! Yah...fun...

    Ahah, like you for your fear of tarantulas, I got my first emperor scorpions in hope to overcome my "fear" of them! While I found them very pretty and interesting, scorpions, most likely due to there not being anything like them here in Québec, the idea of being close to one always made me uncomfortable. Like... I would be able to admire them, and was quite fond of their look, but could never muster the courage to actually care for one.
    Now I'm always looking forward to going back to my mom's place (living in dorm, pets not allowed :'( ) so I can care for them!

    Yes!!! All of these are scary and interesting and beautiful (that Black Widow is gorgeous) in their own way but the Tailless Whip Scorpion will never cease to creep me the f*ck out. I am aware they are harmless but just looking at it you'd think it came from the deepest pits of Tartarus.
    Love the production, the editing, the writing and the amazing footage of the animals. 👏 Also that ending? That's one of my worst irrational nightmares so yeah, thank you very much for putting that in there. 🙃

    I live in Tucson and have bark scorpions in my yard (sometimes in my house). It's true that their venom won't kill most humans, but for all venoms there is the caveat that an individual might be allergic to a specific venom, and then a sting/bite can indeed be lethal.

    Appears like you had the Western black Widow (Latrodectus hesperus). There are a handful of different species in the USA. I might be able to find you a Southern (Latrodectus mactans) and a Brown (Latrodectus geometricus) as both are very common around my house in FL. They are relatively easy to handle as the defense is normally to ball-up and fall away instead of a threat posture. The Brown Widow has really cool nesting habits and the egg sacks are all spiny.

    Solifuge are always a good one. And they’ll always eat haha.
    Nice, L. mactans has some awesome juvenile marking, red instead of white? I have 3 L. hesperus and they are definitely my favorite creature I have.

    Awesome video Richard! I have to fine tune my Halloween special for Wednesday, but I don’t know if mine will be as spooky as yours! Me and my brother enjoyed guessing who was going to come in what spot from your clues we got about 8-10 right!😁🕷

    • @tarantulacollective
      @tarantulacollective  5 лет назад +1

    I was surprised that camel and sun spiders didn't make this list! It is certainly a good one though! I was wondering if you kept snakes. I, too, have a black widow, they are my favorites.

    • @tarantulacollective
      @tarantulacollective  4 года назад +1

      I was going to have a sun spider on there but it died like a day after I got it...so I dont have one in my collection. I do keep a few snakes. I have a California Kingsnake, Eastern Kingsnake, Banana Calico Ball Python and a milk snake.

    • @IrieRogue

      @@tarantulacollective that is really cool! I was wondering which species. I have a pretty large collection of reptiles, I'm just now getting back into arachnids. That sucks your little guy died when you got him. I've been thinking about acquiring one, but I'm unsure of how successful it is to keep them.

    I give you props to housing an Arizona Bark. I live in Phoenix, born and raised, and I cant get over them. They're everywhere, even in my nightmares. Ive had black widows, and their eggs with hundreds of their babies laying dorment in my couch. But the Bark scorpion reigns as my all time worst experience. Had them coming down from my apartment light fixture. Had babies too. Creepy AF.
