This will be the first of what I'm hoping to be a monthly feature. The idea behind "Featured Species" is to delve more in depth into the care of some of the spiders that I have a lot of experience with. A huge "thank you" to World of Spiders for allowing me to use his awesome footage of the C. versicolor in the wild.

9:37 C. versicolor, NOT C. caribena. I made up my own spider! Sorry for the slip up (and "Thanks" to the people who point this out in the comments. ;) )

Very nice and informative video. Thank you very much !
Thank you so much for allowing me to use your footage; I truly appreciate it. Hopefully, some folks will head over and check out your work (hint, hint to anyone reading this!). You have an awesome channel! Thanks again!
I'm heading ur way WOS!!!
Thanks for sharing your footage World of Spiders. You've got a sub from me :) Good luck in your future endeavors!
@@aegisabyss1817 Thank you very much. I really appreciate it. And a big thumps up to Tom and his great channel
SUBSCRIBED!!!
Don't know what I would do without you, Tom. Seriously. I find myself coming back to your videos over and over. I'm a beginner with 5 New World slings. You are my Go-To Guy. Don't ever think you're not helping because you are...very much so. I can't thank you enough. Keep it up. I need you. Hugs
Hi, Tina! Thank you so much! That really means a lot. And you have quite the collection going there! :)
OMG! Perfect timing! Was actually looking into getting one of these! Thanks Tom, you're always my go-to channel for (f)actual information!
Thanks so much, Mantis! :) I get asked about them a lot, so I figured that this would be a good species to start with. :)
me too. It really is great timing. Good luck for when you get yours.
Getting mine next Monday or Tuesday! Psyched! 😃
I just ordered my first c versicolor. Super excited! I fell in love with them when I saw your video for the first time. Such pretty T's!
I have 6 terrestrial ts that I've had for about 3 to 6 months all have had 2 successful molts. So I felt it was time for a slightly more advanced one. Wish me luck!
My favorite! Appreciate this featured spotlight. My first ever T and tiny sling. Happy to say, thanks to your previous husbandry vid advice he's now an adult male. Proudly plan to send him off to make babies when he's mature in the next molt or so. Started again with a new lil blueberry a few weeks ago in hopes of a girl this time. With proper information anyone can raise one of these beauties easy mode!
I agree completely...if people get the right info, they are not difficult to raise at all. Still, there are folks and care sheets out there that still say they need to be kept moist. And so glad to hear that your guy is headed off to make more blue beauties! Congrats! Thanks so much!
How long did it take from sling to adult?
Like how you don’t have an ignoring spastic music in the intro, subbed
Thank you so much!
Yes! Love my “class pet” C. versicolor. Can’t wait to see her again.
That's an awesome class pet. :)
Tom, you are a true inspiration. I listen to all of your podcasts and videos etc, and it's because of your hard work that I have a) overcome my fear of tarantulas, and b) I have a wonderful collection of 40 T's that bring so much joy to my life. It's a hobby that I love, it's so addictive. I apply your advice and tips on husbandry to my collection and I have calm and relaxed T's. Thank you for everything you do, and for all the effort and enthusiasm you put into the hobby.
Awwwww...thanks so much, Helen! That truly means a lot. I LOVE hearing that I've helped someone get over their fear of them. It's like the ultimate compliment as far as I'm concerned. Seriously, thanks. :)
My little one just had its first molt in my care last week. I love its personality -- matches its bright blue color.
Hey, Dan! Congrats on the molt! I still consider the first molt in my care a benchmark. haha :)
Hey, Dan! I just replied to your email. I worry that I end up in bulk sometimes. :)
@@TomsBigSpiders Just got it and replied, brother! Can't begin to thank you enough. It was incredibly helpful. Thanks a ton!
Great quality content as always! Thank you :)
Thanks so much, Omar! :)
excellent video; very informative. Much better than scouring the internet for bits of relliable advice.
Thank you so much, Sam! I tried to make this as thorough as possible! :)
Thank you Tom. Allways nice and infomative videos.
Thank you so much!

Fascinating! ❤ I love this type of content.
Thanks so much, Mariah! :)
this is AWESOME!! keep making this kind of videos! great job!!
This seems to be getting great feedback, so I'm going to continue with them. It was a lot of fun to put together. :) Thanks so much!
Awesome info Tom, thank you for making this video! Looking forward to many more like these!!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! :)
AWESOME video my friend! Love the wild footage from World of Spiders, went and followed them too!
Thank you so much! Yeah, I was SO glad he was okay with me using it. I really think that keepers should spend some time seeing how they live in the wild. :)
Wow those spiderlings looked so dope.
Aren't they adorable? :)
Very nice. Love the graphics and in-depth husbandry info. Looking forward to the next in the series.
Thank you so much, William! I'm relieved that folks seem to enjoy this style. :)
Love this video format, love the additional info provided, watching your videos really got me interested in keeping t’s. Keep up the great work, I love your podcast too, it’s part of my Monday morning routine every week!
Thanks so much, Chris! I'm so glad that this is being received well. :) And getting someone interested in tarantulas is about the highest complement I can receive, so thank you!!!
Also, thanks so much for listening to the podcast. I'm still shocked that it found an audience! hahaha
I really enjoyed this in depth essay style video. Nice job Tom!
Thanks, Drew! I was really curious to see how this style would go over. So far, the feedback has been excellent. Thanks so much!
Yeah, I really enjoyed this video. Been contemplating acquiring one of these beautiful spiders. Always fantastic content from this channel. Thanks Tom., Ben
Thanks so much, Ben! This is one of the species I consider to be a hobby staple. Everyone should have one at some point. :)
I just love your video's. They are so informative! Keep it going!
Thank you so much, Marilyn! :)
One of the most informative videos I've seen well done Tom
Thank you so much!
Excellent video! Can’t wait for the “Featured Species” #2!
Thanks so much! I'm working on it right now! :)
Hi Tom excellent video with really helpful and to the point information. Thankyou so much for putting this together for us 😊
Thanks so much, Anna! This was lot of fun to put together. I'll definitely be doing more like this. :)
Nice video Tom, please do more of these!!
Thanks so much! It seems to be a hit, so I'm going to keep it going. I'm already working on the second! :)
Great video and again the fact that we get to learn so much from your experience make them extremely valuable.
Thanks so much, Jon! :) I really appreciate it!
Brilliant! Getting my first C.versicolor tomorrow and very excited. Just getting the sling enclosure together now.
That's awesome, Adrian...congrats!
I’m so glad to have found your channel! Thank you
Welcome, Jaylin! Thank you so much!
Excellent video, I loved it!! I can't wait to see more of them.
Hi, Toni! Thank so much! I'm so relieved that this was well received. :)
Such an interesting and informative video regarding this genus. Thanks Tom x
Thanks so much, Helen!
You and Dark Den are hands down my favorite T channels. I appreciate the knowledge brother.
Wow, thanks so much, David! I really appreciate that!
Thank you for your video! Very informative and helpful for people who really need a good video about this species. You were very specific and didnt miss a thing! Thank you!
Thank you so much! I tried to be as thorough as possible. :)
Thankyou so much This vid is awsome! I've read sooo much conflicting information on this t that its stopped me from getting one so this was a huge help. Thankyou ❤
I'm so glad that this was helpful!
Really great video Tom, thank you.
Thank you, Cheryl!
Wow! I just got my first C. Versicolor a week ago. Timing is awesome, Tom. 😉 Thank you for this info!
Hi, Davina! That's awesome! I'm glad that it proved timely. Thanks so much! :)
This is AWESOME!!! Thanks Tom!!!! Really well done!!! 👏🙌👏
Thank you so much, Brandon!
Ur care videos alongside tarantula collectives are the best around. Very informative and the music was very relaxing 🤣 keep up the great work. love from the uk
Thank you so much! Yeah, we seem to have very similar styles! Stay safe!
kind of an old video now but thank you so much for making this !! i’m trying to do research cause i’m about to get a c versicolor as my very first tarantula and most sources only vaguely cover things or don’t go into specifics, and as someone who needs detailed instructions for everything find this video was like the stars aligned
I'm so glad that it was helpful. It's an older video, but the info still stands (one of the slings in this video is now a mature adult). :) Thank you!
I fell in love with this species and it will be my first arboreal. First stop for research was your channel (as always). Thanks Tom, for helping to share the right information when there is so much misinformation out there. :)
That's awesome...they are such gorgeous spiders. :) And thank you so much! :)
Ooh, I look forward to more of these in the future. I liked the layout of it. Very nice!
Thanks so much, Beth! This was well received, so I'm already working on the next one. :)
Well done video, spot on info for the versicolor. Very cool species as well, my first arboreal I got a sling 2 years ago that's about 3" now (still might be my favorite arboreal). You definitely helped inspire me to make T videos so thank you!
Thanks so much, bud! I just went over and subscribed! :)
Very detailed and on point great vid ma man! More power!
Hey, Justine! Thanks, bud! Hopefully folks dig this format. :)
@@TomsBigSpiders Why the heck not. I followed ur caresheet on your Avic Avic before because I searched for beginner arboreal sp and I found it on one of your vids and believe it or not Avic Avic was my 1st arboreal T and its hard to come by on one of those here in the Philippines before and now SHE is 4in lol. Now may C. Versi in a heavy premolt and again I followed ur caresheets and ur right man just right misting and enough cross ventilation, I got no problems with my C Versi... Cheers!
It's nice to watch informative videos like these, even if you're already keeping Ts for almost a decade. Superb content! 💯
Thank you so much, Aaron! That means a ton coming from a veteran keeper! :)
I've been watching ALL your videos (others too) & doing tons of research for quite a while now, I have finally just purchased my first T. I'm nervous yet excited! Hope my little nugget thrives. Thanks for all the wonderful information🖤🖤🖤
Hello, Nicole! Sounds like you've done your homework...that's awesome! I hope that all goes well for you!
Sooo many little blue fluffy ones
Hey, Rob! I think a lot of folks fall prey to care sheets that say they need it humid. I was VERY lucky to get some good advice on mine early on. I'm so glad to hear that your new one is doing so well! All the best, and Happy New Year!!! Thanks!
@@TomsBigSpiders Happy new year to you aswell! Best wishes.
I am expecting my first Caribena versicolor in the mail either today or tomorrow and I am so pumped. Ever since I saw pictures of them on Instagram I needed one in my collection. Great video, I appreciate all the information.
Hello, Dani! Congrats on your first C. versicolor! They are STUNNING spiders! :) I'm so glad that you found this useful! :)
Hi Tom, my pink toe sling is arriving today. Can't wait to see he/she ❣️🕷️🕸️🌱 great info as per. 🏴 🇬🇧
That's awesome, Sandra! Good luck!
This was great. Thank you. Tom.
Thank you so much! I'm so glad this is being well received. :)
Amazingly done man. As usual a great video, and the added footage was really interesting as well thank you!
Thanks so much! I'm glad this was well received, as this took quite a bit longer to edit than my usual "raw" stuff. haha
@@TomsBigSpiders I can imagine with all the extra footage from the other site and all the technical aspects that go with that. If someone films animals in the wild do they have to get anything to post it, or is that pretty much open to whoever wants to film/share it? It's a really cool idea though. Your videos are already extremely informative, and very well presented! But if you had a series where people could also see shots of examples in their native habitats as well that would be awesome. Usually I do the husbandry videos by those that post that, and then look for the wild footage (if it can be found) but rarely together. Nice work bro.
Man, the video footage and quality was top notch in this one! Your video quality is always one of the best from all the others on youtube but this was really good. Really showed how stunning this species is!
Wow, thank you so much, Sergio! I tried to put a lot more time into this one, so that means a lot. :)
Please keep doing these videos. They are so important!!!
Thank you! I've got another ready to go! :)
@@TomsBigSpiders You know I'll be watching
I'm glad you mentioned about their temperament. People think that they are as tolerant as Avicularia avicularia and metallica, but they aren't. They are often nowhere near that level of tolerance and people need to be prepared for that.
I love World of Spiders and I have been watching his videos for a long time. Plus, he has the only video footage of Cyriocosmus giganteus and was kind enough to answer my questions about them. He has a great channel.
In one of my older videos, a guy commented, "Why don't you just pick her up? The love to be held." UGH. Personally, I've found all of mine to be quite skittish overall. My large female went through a stage where she was pretty laid back, but then went back to being crazy after she had the sac. Telling people that they are all cuddly and tractable is just going to set beginners up for a rude awakening.
I LOVE that channel. I discovered his video of C. olivaceum a while back, and I was hooked. I'm going to be trying to promote some of the channels that show them in nature, like Birdspidersch, World of Spiders, and Tarantupedia, as those guys deserve more attention for what they are doing. As always, thanks so much for commenting!
Wife just got me one for Christmas this is my first stop before doing anything
What a great Christmas gift! Thanks!
Best information I've found so far. It's so confusing with all the conflicting information or there. THANK YOU TOM! Cant wait for the rest of this series xxx
Thanks so much, Helen! Yeah, there is still tons of conflicting info out there. I just had someone email me the other day asking how to keep the humidity up in their C. versicolor cage because it was only at 80%. Yikes. I kept mine mostly dry and didn't obsess over humidity.
@@TomsBigSpiders you are a saviour! Thanks for all you do xxx
Dude, you really give so much information, thank you so much.
I try to think of anything that might be useful. Thank you!
Love the in depth look! I wasn't adding to many holes in my slings enclosure, I was being proactive and didn't even realize.
Thanks! Yeah, the longer I'm in the hobby, the more holes I put into enclosures now. haha
Great video as always, Tom. I will hopefully be picking up a versicolor sling very soon :)
Thanks so much! And that's awesome! This is one of the species I think that everyone should keep at some point. :)
Great timing...I just rehoused 2 of my C. versicolor slings last night!!! Beautiful slings and fantastic eaters!
Thanks, Fernando! They really are one of the few species of tarantulas that are stunning in every stage of their lives. And they eat great, too. :)
@@TomsBigSpiders hello tom. I have a question. I got this c. versicolor sling and feed it last week almost everyday. Is it bad to their health? Just once or twice a week of feeding would be the recommended? thanks in advance
Great video Tom!
Hi, Henry! Thanks so much! :)
I love this! Great stuff Tom, thank you for uploading and thanks to World of Spiders too for providing you with some of the wild footage! Watching them in the wild better helps to understand some of their natural tendencies : ) (by the way, I notice when it was a bigger juvenile it acted like my girl did when I first got her. lol They are really good hunters, jumping at everything and stuff. She took my straw once; was trying to see how she was feeling before I got ready to rehouse her. They've got killer grip!)
I had already mentioned his channel in the commentary, so I decided to ask him if it would be okay for me to show a clip. I figured that it would get more folks over to check out his amazing channel. I'm so glad that he was okay with it. Once mine put on some size, they are amazing hunters. I have had a couple slings that were a little finicky, which is why I mentioned it. I don't think it's particularly common, but I have had folks email me all stressed because theirs wasn't eating. Thanks again!
I love mine it’s been such a treat watching him/her grow and change
One of my favorites
They are such awesome spiders. :)
music, maps, nice display of enclosures......daaaaamn Tom.
Hahahahaha! I did one of these about two years ago, but never followed up with it. It was a lot of work, but I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. Thanks, Clint! :)
Another fantastic vid man 👍🏽
Hi, Lee! Thanks so much!
Thank you for the excellent video and the recommendation for World of Spiders. This is a species that I am very interested in acquiring in a few more months and this video certainly makes me want one even more. I am still doing my "homework" and will not rush into things, but it seems like a relatively straight forward set of husbandry requirements for an arboreal. Again thank you.
You're most welcome! And thank YOU for doing your homework before picking one up. So many folks buy first, then research later.
As a newbie these videos are awesomely informative!! Thanks a bunch man! 😁😁😁
Thanks so much, Dan! I'm so glad this was helpful. :)
Great video!! And looking forward to this series. My 3ed tarantula was a little versicolor, and she's still doing great. I was so paranoid about ventilation and humidity at that time. They are one of the prettiest Ts, out there!
Man, when I first got mine, I was SUPER paranoid over the ventilation and husbandry. At that time, everyone was saying to keep them really moist, but this experienced keeper told me to have good cross ventilation and not to worry about humidity. Talk about sage advice! And I agree...they are gorgeous! :) Thanks again!
Tom this video is amazing! This is everything a new keeper wants to hear and learn, and it's in a great easy to follow format. Having scoured your earlier videos for any tidbit of helpful detail, it's great to see your new approach. Oh, and the classical music in the background is PERFECT 👌
Just got home and found my little 1" molted today! A fantastic, and now 1.5" coincidence!!
Thanks so much! I've done so many videos on some species over the years, that I realize that it's probably difficult for people to find them all. I'm hoping this series will help consolidate some of this footage and information into one easily digestible and informative video. I'm actually really excited bout it! :) And THANK YOU one the music!!!! I went through so many, and I loved that one. I've had a couple folks who totally HATED it. hahaha I'm just not going to please everyone. :)
Congrats on the molt! :)
Tom, your videos are always good, but this one is somehow a grade above your usual content; a feat I didn't easy to accomplish.
Thank you so much...your comment makes the effort more worth it. This is more what I would like to do, it's just obviously a lot more time consuming. If folks like the format, I'll keep doing these along with my more "raw" style of videos. Thanks again! :)
Love the videos keep up the good work this helps a lot 😁
Thanks so much, Alvaro!
Beautiful species and episode brother. God bless.
Thanks so much, John!
A very nice video. Almost a year ago I started my collection with a C. versicolor and I don't regret it. They are stunningly beautiful, visible almost all the time, mostly calm especially when they get bigger and they eat really well. Of course they can be really fast and you have to clean their poop from the windows every once in a while but I still regret nothing. A fantastic tarantula.
They really are such an amazing and gorgeous spider. Mine's temperament changed a couple molts ago, and she's a little crazy now. Before her sac, she was quite laid back. I'm hoping that she'll calm down again someday. Ah...yes. The poop. hahaha Thanks!
This pretty much answered all my questions 😎👌🕷️👍🤘 great vid!
Awesome...thank you!
Thank you for this. We've had bad luck with versicolor in the past, and really want to get it right next time we try.
Hi, Brian! They can definitely be tricky. Hopefully, it goes well for you this time!
For anyone that is flipping through channels looking for information on raising and caring for tarantulas this is one channel that you need to subscribe to. While Tom is not perfect, LOL, he is very informative and he has a lot more experience with tarantulas than I do that is for sure. His videos are great his information is sound and he seems to be a good guy too. Locking in and pay attention and you will learn a lot of good information that will help you care for your T's properly. Great video Tom! Thank you and keep them coming.
Awwwww...thanks so much, John! Man, this is so nice, it's like a review blurb! hahaha I love it...thank you!
ok....I have rewound your video on my TV about 6 times now because I am also on my laptop so I can talk to you. Time to pay closer attention. I am all about ventilation too. Your videos are very important to me so I really hope you do lots more. As I said, I know Old World is definitely not for me and that's just me being honest with myself but I will try to leave a comment on all the videos I watch which is a lot of yours. I do watch others that you know well such as Petko and Tarantula Kat and love their videos too. Petko is very entertaining and Kat is entertaining and somewhat informative as well but these videos you do help me the most and calm me down when someone won't eat which still drives me a little crazy and I find myself looking at everyone's butt with a magnifying glass quite often. Yes, I have been driving myself a little crazy watching over them. Now, I'm going to unpause this video which is at it's beginning again on my Roku. The sudden death thing is scary but my children are grown and SIDS worried me to death. Not the same, I know but I am a very watchful mom, even to my Ts. I hope we can talk sometime even though I know that a lot of work goes into you caring for your own animals and making your videos for youtube. My Chaco's butt is very black and shiny but is still out and about every so often but not eating. I have a cricket drumstick in its enclosure now but will remove it in 24 hours yet I'm still not sure how often to try to give food and I search from the outside of the enclosure with a magnifying glass waiting to see a molting position. I would love to be more relaxed. that's for sure. I have written you a novel. On to your video. Thank you for all you do.
Awesome video. Very informative. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Ike!
On your podcast rn, just mentioned you getting your new pup from Little Rhodey Rescue. My girlfriend and I just got our dog from them a couple months ago! Loved that place
Hey, bud...that's awesome! I was super impressed with the whole experience. The people were super nice, and Bella is just fantastic. Congrats on yours!
Hey Tom,
Just wanted to let you know that I followed your C. versicolor husbandry and have successfully grown four of these beauties up to about 3". This was all in my first year of keeping tarantulas. Thank you!
That's awesome, Cyler! I'm so glad to hear that they are doing well! Thank you!
Great video with excellent information! I'll make sure to spread it, so hopefully, no more of these amazing spiders will die because of those horrible care sheets on the web! Thanks a lot for doing this! :)
Thanks so much! When I first got my C. versicolor, all of the care sheets were saying to keep them moist and to restrict ventilation. I can't even imagine how many spiders died because of that. :)
Amazing video my friend. Thank you for sharing. When it comes to the right husbandry, I always follow information between u and another RUclipsr. All my T’s are doing great & I have to thank you for that. My C. Versicolor is still a sling & I was worried about getting one but again with the information I’ve read with ur post online & the other RUclipsr, he/she is thriving & doing great. 😁 As always, love your videos and thank you again for sharing. I’ll for sure check out his channel.
Thank you so much! Man, that means a lot. :) I stressed SO MUCH over my first versicolor sling, so I totally get it. Glad to hear that yours is doing great, and thanks for checking out World of Spiders! :)
HeyTom! Great video! I have 3 versi's from your girl's sac and all three are absolute stunners!
That's awesome! That means that your 3 are somewhere in that gorgeous ocean of spiderlings toward the end! :) Thanks so much!
@@TomsBigSpiders Yep!
Ok thank you you for the reply. I enjoy the information teach .
You're most welcome! And thank YOU for commenting!
I love your videos! I have a huge fear of spiders. However this channel (along with a few others) are curing that more and more each day. I might be ready to buy my first T here in a few months! Thankyou for helping me get over my fears
Thanks so much, Stephen! I started off as arachnophobic, so I totally get it. I'm so glad to her that these videos are helping you to get over that fear. Please, let me know when you get your first? :) Thanks!
@@TomsBigSpiders I definitely will!
Love your videos - they are always so informative. You are the GURU T`Man ;-)
Hahahaha!!!! Thanks so much, Brittsunivers! :)
I just got my first sling today and this video was very useful!
Congrats on getting your first sling! I'm so glad that this was helpful!
I bought a Caribena versicolor I think within a month of starting in the hobby. On top of that it was about 1/4 inch. Now it’s about 1.5 inches and thriving.
I have to give all the credit to you. I watched a ton/all of your videos and read your website. It’s enclosure has good ventilation and from there it’s been all about choosing the right size feeder. Thank you for all your help.
Man, thanks so much for that, James! I truly appreciate it. I'm so glad to hear that yours is doing well. :)
Thank you for the info I just picked up one of these guys not too long ago as a 1/3” sling and this is the most informative info I’ve found so far,
I wasn’t to fond of the music in the background but that’s just my opinion, keep up the good work and thank you for all you do
Thanks so much, Kyle! The trick with them is NOT to obsessed about keeping them super moist.
And I struggled with the music. I wanted to add something, but then I couldn't decide on what would be appropriate. I'll likely switch it up moving ahead. I DID try to keep it rather quiet, though...just in case folks hated it. haha Thanks again!
Your video presentation is awesome.
Thanks so much, Travis!
I love this style of video. I would love to see one done on each species.
Thanks so much, Shelby! The response was excellent, so I'm already at work on the next! :)
Great information! I have my first due from Fear Not this Thursday. Thanks Tom!
Thanks so much, Meagan! And that's awesome...congrats! I love Fear Not! :)
Thank you!!! I just got a sling and I fell in love with it! Thank you for covering all this!!
That's awesome, Dusting...congrats! :)
Lol don't ya hate auto correct ;) lol. Stay cool Mr. Tom!!
@@NoG-Inc. UGH! Dustin! hahaha Sorry about that!
It's all good my friend. Looking forward to your videos, stay awesome!!
Great Video Tom!! C. versicolor is one of the few that can also "kick" its urticating hairs
Steve! Yup, I realized that I had left that out after editing. Ugh. Thanks so much, bud! I was so excited to tackle the "cuddling" that I forgot the obvious one. haha
I just received my first sling, this beauty from Fear Not Tarantula and they recommend watching your videos. I am so nervous. I want to do everything right. Mine walked out of it's packing onto my hands and arms. I have let it run on my hands and arms a couple times since getting it on Wednesday. I hope that's ok.
Congrats! I would just be careful handling them, as they can jump. Although slings are quite durable, a fall from too high could prove deadly.
Another great video 👍🇬🇧
Thanks so much!
Great information Tom I can't wait for my C. Versicolor to get older for now I'm enjoying the blue colors
How's it going, Nick! Yeah, this is one of those species that's gorgeous in every stage of it's life. I'm enjoying growing a couple more up, as it's been a while. Such a pretty species! As always, thanks, bud!
you smash it every time dude I really appreciate your videos! les goooooo science haha
Thank you so much, Lola! :)
Man, treespiders are amazing, especially a beautiful one as this. I have 2 P.pulchers that amaze me every time they come out if their treestump.
Great info to end some questions! 👍
Edit; cool editing too! 😊 Love the extra-info-bits
P. pulchers are another gorgeous one! Thanks so much, Michiel!
