    I think my favorite part of the whole video is at the end, when you’re like “I get really excited talking about it.” (No need to apologize!)
    That’s what always comes through in your videos. The passion of the hobby and the enjoyment of observing the T’s.
    Great job!

    At the beginning when you were talking about doing a T. stirmi and I was yelling "no do a communal" then you changed it and I was yelling even more! 😁😃 Quite the emotional Rollercoaster over here 😆 🤣 awesome build, and yes you represented the community well and did us proud! Definitely got my vote!!

  • @wheezyvettech8781
    @wheezyvettech8781 2 года назад +8

    Dude, yours and Adam's are the best. The others don't utilize the available vertical space. In addition to your usage of vertical space, everything flows well and you can easily submerge yourself into its microhabitat. You and Adam all the way.

  • @kadoceleritus
    @kadoceleritus 2 года назад +5

    Great build, Richard! Your enclosure did a great job being cohesive while still feeling cozy. While it might have less greenery than some of the others, those anchor points will look amazing once a communal makes some web spires in there. Worried about slings being able to get through the mesh top, as well as tarsal claws catching, but that enclosure looks like it'd be simple enough to make a top panel from polycarbonate or acrylic. Definitely going in on that raffle. I would adore seeing hundreds of legs in that space.

    • @tarantulacollective
      @tarantulacollective  2 года назад +5

      I didn't really show the lid in the video and ended up cutting the part of me talking about this aspect bc the audio quality was so poor. But the gaps in the mesh top are large enough it would pose no threat of getting their tarsal stuck. But they are large enough for sling to squeeze through. But the enclosure also comes with an acrylic top or top made out of the renewable wood stuff the enclosure is made of that fits securely. So you can put that on top and drill holes if spiderlings ever show up.

  • @tashabasha888
    @tashabasha888 2 года назад

    I think you're idea is very clever as technically your enclosure isn't the finished article until you put the balfouris in. This allows the person who wins this to see the webbing process and progress. I think that this one will look the most awesome with time, patience and care that is put into looking after those tarantulas. I don't own tarantulas and watched a few of you tarantula RUclipsrs to dampen my arachnophobia (still don't like big spiders though as we don't get many in the UK till autumn) but I can watch these videos comfortably. Btw love Petko the skull 💀
