Kieran do you have a P. Victori in your collection? CFTN has them in just now and I'm gonna get a couple, just wanted to see if you had made a video on them.
@@caitgems1 Hey, we did have but unfortunately it died as a sling. It is definitely something i eould like to get back in the collection soon! So when we do i will make a video 🤟🏻🤟🏻
@@AlternativeInverts Nice one Kieran, sorry to hear yours died. I'm gonna get an P. Everetti to go with my Sabah after watching this last week. Look forward to your next upload 👊😁👌
we made it been looking forward to this all day 😂😂😂😂👍
Great info Kieran. Enclosure looks great too.
Thanks Chris! Definitely a sp. Id recommend :) 🤟🏻🤟🏻
New subscriber here , what a beautiful spider , she was like a ballerina with all her threat poses lol 😆
Love ya vids mate, keep them coming have definitely helped me
Thats amazing to hear thank you! Its nice to know we can help other keepers! If you are ever unsure or need help we are only a message away :) 🤟🏻🤟🏻
I have 3 of these and a pennellhewlettorum, all due for a rehouse, so this got me psyched. Thanks!
Thats awesome dude! Definitely a beautiful genus arent they. Good luck with the rehouse 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Loved the vid n the enclosure ..
Thank you Marie! 🥰🤟🏻🤟🏻
Hello great video rehousing Kieran
Thank you as always dude :) 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Awesome video!! What a stunner😍This footage is really awesome, and the enclosure looks suhhh-weeeeeet ✌💜🕷🕸
Thank you thats awesome! Were glad you like the setup of the enclosure and the rest of the video! 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Wow, nice enclousure 👌👍! I think she will feel very comfortable there, I've copied a few things. Great ... Greetings from the Baltic Sea my friend. 🤘🤘🤘
Thanks guys! One thing i love is the setting up of the enclosures. Same with our reptile vivariums.
Thank you for watching and we hope to see you back soon! 🤟🏻🤟🏻
@@AlternativeInverts Yes, I really enjoy it too. Especially when not only one animal lives in it but also the plants develop and everything around them. A little world of its own. 😍👍🤘
@@spidersinfected7208 Thats true! I do love planted enclosures and also have a few full bioactive for some of them. 🤟🏻🤟🏻
How often do you see this species out on display? I'm trying to find a somewhat visible Phormingochilus spp.
If the communal isn't a UK only thing that I would definitely be the winner LOL JK
Wow I need to step my tarantula enclosures up. My tarantula husbandry could be so much better .
Hopefully we can give you some ideas :) its not expensive and pretty easy to do 🤟🏻🤟🏻
I have four earth tiger and two of them are Phormingochilus sp. Sabah blue (a male and a female)
My female Phormingochilus sp. Sabah blue is the weirdest spider I own, today she was actually threat posturing from a long distance while eating she does other weird stuff too like jumping at prey and throwing bolusses and molts at me (I sometimes get the idea she's treating me like a slave)
I keep all my earth tigers on a wet drainage layer that's filled between 30% and 90% with water this keeps the enclosures nice and wet without waterlogging the substrate and misting, I don't really like clay balls so I use hydro drain as a drainage layer after this I use repti mesh to separate the drainage layer fom the substrate, on the mesh goes jungle bedding as a substrate, on the substrate goes forest floor moss and finally the moss is covered with some leaf litter (camellia leaves) and finally springtails are introduced.
I do use a heat mat on a thermostat to keep them at 26-27°C in the day and 20-21°C at night.
The only con I have encountered is that it takes about three weeks for the humidity to stabilize but the spiders and springtails don’t mind at all it just causes some extra condensation on the glass.
Hey thanks for the comment 🤟🏻🤟🏻 tmThey do definitely have sone wierd traits if you can catch them out 🤣 we do have some similar setups with drainage layers to be honest for a few of ours but i tend to do better without them now. Providing the substrate is not over soaked i dont get ang mold etc using the irish moss peat. Also misting for me is good for helping grow the moss and plants in my enclosures 🤣 sure sound like you have some great setups and are keeping them well :D🤟🏻🤟🏻
magical spider KIERAN, i think my next spiders will be Asian arboreal. thanks KIERAN for sharing
Tha ks Graeme and thats awesome to hear! Im very pasionate about asian arboreals nice to know we can help spread the love for them :D 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Gorgeous T kieron mate they remind me a bit off a young Singapore blue they look really similar but obviously totally different when there adults stunning species. 😊
Beautiful arent they! Thats another one that needs rehousing actually our O.violaceopes (sigapore blue) maybe soon :)
Stunning T dude, only have 2 phormingochilus and they're the rufus I got from you, will defo be adding more 🤘🤘
Thats awesome man! Those rufus are beautiful :D you definitely need to add more. Every one of the Tarantulas currently described within that genus are stunning :)
That is a stunning arboreal tarantula! When I am ready for asian arboreal OW the Phormingochilus sabah blue is definitely going on the list next to P. metallica and regalis.
Thats awesome Maria! You got this you can do it 🤟🏻🤟🏻 tmThey are some other nice sp. too metallica and regalis are beautiful :D
Great vid mate I keep mine a similar way , cool spiders 👍
Thank you Dave! Thats it its fairly simple really isnt it and they seem to love it 😁😁 definitely my favourite genus
@@AlternativeInverts yes mate there very cool.
i loved this video and the tarantula is beautiful, but for age (67) the music is a little loud...
Thank you :D im glad you enjoyed the video! I will bring some noce peaceful music for some upcoming videos 😉
Awesome video Kieran.
Enclosure is wicked and she’s a beauty.
Thank you Angela! She sure is and i promise i eill get that sensei mummy cleaned next time 🤪 i just keep forgetting 😂😂
Stunning spider, yet to get any of the genus myself but having been keeping them In mind as they all look beautiful.
Thank you! I highly reccomend them there are some beautiful sp. outt there :)
@@AlternativeInverts Yeah there are
At 12:30? Weren't you a littlebit tempted to use her as a waterbowl plateau? She was angled so perfectly 👀
Nice vid. The bolt footage was cute 😋
Haha she sure was 🤣🤣 i didnt think of that but im sure she would have thrown it all over me!
Thank you were glad you enjoyed the video and hope you enjoy our others 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Love your vids and energy 🤘
Beauuuutifull T
Thank you Absit 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Awesome video mate. I'd like a video about the birupes. That would be very cool. Maybe I'll learn something new. Anyway keep the videos coming!!! Stay safe
Thank you! I think we do already have one on the birupes and how we setup the enclosure etc.. should be able to find it on our channel :D

@@AlternativeInverts thanks mate..
Anyone know why they call an arboreal an earth tiger? Also looks like they move a lot slower than a pokie good for a first arboreal?
I'm assuming the communal giveaway is only available for UK followers
The communal will be UK only but if the winner is outside of the UK we may be able to change up the prize 😉😉
It will most likely be for my 3k subscriber giveaway so only around 100 subs needed
Nicely done enclosure. Beautiful spider.
Thanks guys! Glad you enjoyed it :D 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Loved the video she is so pretty definitely one for my list
Thank you as always Lexie! Definitely one for the collection :)
Wicked vid! Beautiful and crazy-like all the best spiders 😊
Thanks guys! Sure is, i love it when they give me a little bit of hastle 🤣🤣 i like my spiders with a personality haha
@@AlternativeInverts me too! Gotta love the feisty ones 😂
Congrats on another drop! Fingers crossed.
Thanks guys! Were stoked 🤞🤞
Sir I know this is off topic but. What's the right feeding schedule for tarantulas? (Sling,juvenile,adult)
I power feed my slings till they grow to 2inch or 1.5 after that I stop the power feeding. Then I noticed it later on. I got small males. Specifically baboons. They would grow 3.5with hooks. I think I got problem on my feeding. Need advice from pro's. 😅
Thank u
Hey, to be honest we dont stick to a strict schedule as i dont want to overfeed my T's. I tend to check on everything weekly and i feed based of the size of their abdomen. If they they start looking a little chunky i hold off with the feeding. Slings i tend to feed weekly some twice weekly depending and keep the temps a little warmer to grow them through the delicate stage faster but then slow it back down.
You will find most male babboon sp. do mature quite small that is normal so you have nothing to worry about there :)
@@AlternativeInverts thanks sir this helps a lot. btw can I use this conversation on my vlog? Just asking permission 😅
@@repentlesstarantula3614 Anytime dude no problem and yes thats fine with me :) 🤟🏻🤟🏻
@@AlternativeInverts thanks keep rocken sir 😁🤘🏼
I think sir. How do I spell your name right? 😅 I want thank u properly. And put your name right in the video 😅
New tarantula for my eyes 😮.
They are truly a stunning sp.
The anticipation is killing me
Haha not long now!
And do u brreed them. I would love to see your technique hatchlings to separation for sale or enclosures. Lol.
Hey Galeia, we do indeed breed :) we have some videos in our Tarantula breeding playlist for pairings and also pulling/hatching eggsacs and potting them up :) we have done a fair few now this year and hopefully plenty more to come 🤟🏻🤟🏻
@@AlternativeInverts i didnt know. I just recently started watching your vlogs, bcause i think its all so interesting. I didn't know so i thought i would ask.
@@galeiawilliams7341 no problem at all :) welcome to the channel and i hope you enjoy what you see :D 🤟🏻🤟🏻
Loved enclosure 👏✔️👌
Thank you :)
Great vid Kieran 👌🏼
Thanks dude :) 🤟🏻🤟🏻
I get my replacement one on Tuesday 👊😁👌
Boom just in time! We get some stunning close up's in this shes a beaut :D
@@AlternativeInverts Can't wait, hopefully this one won't die on me 🤣
Beautiful species and beautiful enclosure! I've been looking at Phormingochilus for a while now and had considered the sp rufus, I'll definitely be adding these to my wishlist as well!
Thank you James! Rufus are also another beaut i forgot about those but we have those too and managed to succesfully breed them. We have a video somewhere of me pulling the sac and potting up slings 🤣🤣
@@AlternativeInverts I'll have to check it out! When you produce sacs, what do you do with all the slings? It's something I'd like to consider in the future when i have more experience and the room to do it
@@valhallainverts2551 most of the time i pull them from the female after 35 days and they should be ewls, n1's or N2's and i incubate then untill they eventually molt into spiderlings. Then i keep a few sell the rest to bigger online sellers and privately
@@AlternativeInverts Awesome, one day when I have the room and knowledge to support that, I'll probably attempt it. I know of 2 sellers in my state that I could contact and if they were interested, then I'd go for it
