  • Hi guys, so if you have seen my social media lately then you know what is coming here.
    What an amazing experience this was. Monocentropus balfouri are the best tarantulas to keep communally and here we rehouse what started as a commune of 75 in August 2018.

    Looks like that went as smooth as one would expect rehousing 70 balfouris would be. Controlled chaos lol. But seriously...that's amazing. And they were much more chill than I thought they would be...good thing too since several went running up your arms lol. It makes the prospect of one day attempting a 6 balfouri communal much less daunting in comparison.

    That is very impressive! No matter what that must have been a staggering price tag. I can't even picture the price of all of them plus enclosure for sale at an expo lol! I was curious though if all 75 were from the same eggsac? I know I've read new specimens can be introduced to a group already established, but I know it's more of a garentee they cohabitate as siblings so I was curious if I could factor that data into my observations. When I'm able to pair mine when they mature I was wondering the possibility of a large ecosystem communal vivarium being possible, and seeing this video was a big help with that idea thank you! You have a pretty sweet setup for them as well. Is the enclosure custom? Sorry for the few lost, but out of that many that's still awesome. Props for the video.

    • @IanTarrantula
      @IanTarrantula  5 лет назад +1

      Hi. Yes these were raised from the same sac and it was amazing to get the result we did in the numbers. Graeme has done a fantastic job with the enclosure and I will be doing an update on it soon as i have seen some photos and it is looking impressive. I am looking into the possibility of introducing a single sling to my communal of 5 to see if it gets accepted. Just been speaking to a few different people with different opinions on it.

    • @aracknoinfiniteeseekertrip9689
      @aracknoinfiniteeseekertrip9689 5 лет назад

      @@IanTarrantula that's awesome bro, and thank you again for the info and feedback. I'll have to go back and check because the variance between different species, and average total eggs per sac is pretty wide. And with this species I hear alot of stories about having issues taking the sac like with other species and such so all available info definitely helps factor things for the future. I have a #5 communal as well. And I can say I've thought the same, but I'll stick with this for now to see how everything goes. I'm pretty sure 1 of mine I got was from a different eggsac even though i bought them all together on a communal deal, but could have just been randomly a bit bigger then the others wich were identical for the most part, it was just slightly different then the rest. But I watched closely as they interacted (amazingly unique with this species commumally) and watched the whole pecking order/tapping hierarchy take place with the others. At 1st I wasn't too sure what to expect, but they all have been doing awesome, and that larger one definitely seems like the others follow, and after all this time have confirmed they are all still there! By far one of the coolest Tarantulas to get for a number of reasons besides it's award winning looks lol. And if it wasn't for the price and lightning speed bolting they can do, I would even recommend them to beginners! Thanks again man.
