I’ve commented this before but Felix becoming more open and friendly is so nice to see. I remember how wary he used to be and seeing how he acts now always makes me smile.
No ur not the only one lol I do to. Whenever I visit my family and someone tells spider I’m like “ don’t kill it,it belong to the dark den” and then I’m like oh wait He lives somewhere far far away from me
awesome tour dude! Love your set up. I find it funny you are working towards moving your collection into your basement and I am working towards moving my collection out of my basement into some other studio space...lol.
I've been a hardcore lurker for a while on your channel, and I honestly don't know how I got here, as I have never been fond of spiders. I say though that I adore your videos, you've given me an appreciation for tarantula's and I've actively been trying to get over the silly fear I have of spiders, I've gotten better at not freaking out over teeny friends, and even though I still get squeamish around the bigger spiders that hide in my home, I've definitely gotten braver and it's thanks to this channel 100%. I will never in my life get a tarantula, as beautiful as they are, but I wholeheartedly appreciate them so much more than I used too. You're a fun guy to listen too when I'm working, and I always look forward to new videos from you!
Coming back after a looong while of not watching ur vids. Im glad to hear she is now ur wife man i remember the times u talked about "ur girlfriend". Very happy for u and i hpe ur channel continues to grow
I've read that male chameleons, when they reach sexual maturity, become more likely to interact with humans and more willingly get on hands I love Felix and Despacito
...not to dismiss his memory abilities, but it’s clear he is very passionate about these creatures, so it’s not too difficult to remember all about them when you’re this engrossed in a subject(s) Awesome stuff though! Can tell he cares for them extremely well Edit: also, he seems to have labels on most of the tanks, so he sees all the vital information about them regularly, including their scientific nomenclature
I suppose if you have a huge passion about something memory isn't an issue... my younger brother is the same with cars and some games like Super Smash Brawls. I'm the same with HP/FB stuff and my memory is the worst, even with a shopping list 🤷🏼♀️😂
I have been longing for a new tour of the dark den for sooooo long 😍, I would love if you did a new video where you go into how you make the enclosures (the newer design) and explain everything with much detail. Sending love from Sweden!
I'm a new subscriber to your channel - literally watched the old Den tour earlier today and thought it's a shame there's not one newer than a year old, then this lands a few hours later?! Crazy. Thanks man, keep up the amazing content!
Thank you so much for these videos! I must admit, until I stumbled upon your channel, I was terrified of spiders and tarantulas. But watching these videos, the way you interact with them, and your passion for these beautiful creatures has given me a new perspective. I’ve found now that when I’m having a bad day, your channel always makes me feel better. I’ve yet to watch any of your videos, and not end up smiling by the end. Thank you so much!!
I’ve been waiting way to long for this Petko! We are all happy you’re moving into a more permanent place and getting a house with your wife! Keep up the great work Petko!
My phone died and I had RUclips withdrawal for a week then I get a new one and here's this video and IT'S AWESOME. MY NEW FAVORITE FAVORITE FAVORITE Dark Den and NOT just because I finally broke my RUclips fast but because IT'S SO MUCH FUN to watch!!!!!! Thank you Petko!!!!
Loved it! Thank you for putting in all those hours for us 🖤 Maybe before the end of the year a tribute to all we have lost this year. Sascha, Cappuchino, Seladonia, the longlegged spider whose name I don't know with the long spinnerets, the mantisses, the versicolorbabies 😢 and probably a couple of animals I missed. May they rest in peace.
Do you take Felix to look at the others?/what does he think? My labrador is fascinated by other animals on the tv or in the pet shop. I’ve just found your channel and am loving it! It’s wonderful how much you respect the animals and the fact you genuinely are in awe of them. It’s really nice to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for showing us your dark den! It was so interesting and fun to watch, I hadn't realized it was almost an hour long. I love to see your regulars, your collection is amazing. Linda did NOT disappoint 😂
4:30 Desposito reminds me of my old beardy (Jack) And Jack preferred his meat too! In fact I used to feed him juvenile mice! It was fun to watch him hunt them down, and the crunch when Jack crushed the mouse's head was audible 8O, I had him for about 8 years
the tarantulas are awesome but felix always steals the show for me 😍 he is so sweet! his behaviour really shows how great your care for your animals is!
Hell yes, I’m so excited to be this early to this video. I love your channel Petko. You were the first person who introduced me to the tarantula keeping hobby. Then I found Kat, Exotics Lair and many more. Thank you for the videos! You are one of my biggest inspirations, I hope to have a collection like you one day. Now I have 5 tarantulas of my own! 🕷🕷🕷💕
Wow Petko, thank you so much for this video, it must have been a lot of hard work to record and edit, we really appreciate that! PS: I used to hate roaches, but after watching your videos and, recently, Rasputin's video, I'm starting to like them.
Firstly, I should note that watching this at 1:10 in the morning while laying in bed by yourself on a Saturday is a bad idea. I feel like things are crawling on me now. Secondly I would note that I'm a groundskeeper operating in the northern part of Kentucky United States. At 22 minutes there is shown a tan-colored tarantula. It is very similar to a spider that I see once in a blue moon here. Normally in relatively close proximity to a lake. While cleaning under a client's deck not long ago, I moved some lawn chairs, at which point a giant tan spider fell and landed on its feet on the concrete. It took a very aggressive posture and begin to follow my movement while lunging. The two of us were at War for a good little bit of time. I would sure like to know what kind of spider it was. Clearly it had to tolerate our very cold Winters. The spider was larger than my hand. Its legs were about the size of my pinky finger. But longer. It was one of the largest to spiders I've ever seen. I've also seen some spiders that look very much like huntsman spiders. They're just a lot darker in color. And I may add not as large. Usually just around the size of my hand. A contractor working a job near a job I was working, told me of a rather horrible experience he had under a house that was abandoned for several years and needed reinstallation. As well a friend of mine who works on river barges, told me of an alarming interaction with a spider has largest his welding helmet living in a pipe that he was welding on. I don't know if there's something in the water or what but Kentucky is breeding some eight legged freaks. I would love to show a professional around this area and let he or she tell me what is going on with these giant spiders.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video for us. I know it was alot of work but it was worth it became it was a really cool video! I'm so excited to see your new Dark Den so keep those videos coming!
I absolutely loved this tour even if i have been watching a while. I admire the way you know almost all the Latin names by memory, that is so impressive. Thank you for sharing your pets and being so knowledgeable. I have grown to love tarantulas watching your channel.
🦎🦂🕷 GREAT TOUR! 🙌🏼
Hey. Do you know where he gets the name tags from. Sure do like them.
🦀
😄
Let's face it, Despacito and Felix are the true stars of the channel
Toadally
They are this channels Monty.
and the Vampire crabs
Not disagreeing with you but I feel like Linda would aggressively argue that 😂😂
RIP Cappuccino
1hour of Dark Den and it is still not christmas
I thought the same!
I’ve commented this before but Felix becoming more open and friendly is so nice to see. I remember how wary he used to be and seeing how he acts now always makes me smile.
I love how Felix is friendly now. He just wants to ride with you.

Petko. After hearing from you that you don't like to make these type of videos I just want to say thank you! You did an amazing job! Well done!
Who isn't new to The Dark Den but watched this anyway?
Me. I've been watching since the very first Dark Den.
Mee 😅
Me lol
@@maxgreen9776 same, I started watching ever since he did the video of his crazy centipede, Devil I think? Haha😁 great times
Me, I been watching you since the start.
Dark Den: releases new video
My brain: releases one (1) serotonin molecule
If you could get one serotonin per animal youd be set for life lmaoo
@@lovelandfrogman9620 OH SHIT PLANS
It‘s gotten to the point that whenever i see a spider i think of petko and the dark den, am i the only one?
Nope
No ur not the only one lol I do to. Whenever I visit my family and someone tells spider I’m like “ don’t kill it,it belong to the dark den” and then I’m like oh wait He lives somewhere far far away from me
Yes, yes you are.
no your not alone, lol
awesome tour dude! Love your set up. I find it funny you are working towards moving your collection into your basement and I am working towards moving my collection out of my basement into some other studio space...lol.
Thanks, we all love changes and improvements :D
We don’t mind seeing the animals, thanks for the longer video. 😀
sun beetles and land snails, you certainly trying to make the habitat like Africa!
I'm sure all those animals are blessed to have such a great dad
Whenever you’re rattling off all those Latin names it sounds like you’re trying to summon a demon :-0
I would settle for him summoning a Tarantula or two. They are all hiding all the time. 😆
Lol
We need a Latin name compilation lol
😅😅😅😅
Love him to bits
“Unlike these they would just destroy the world if they could” had me weak
One of my favourite parts of this video was Linda jump scaring you lol great video Petko, thanks for the tour

You made me get into the hobby and know which tarantula to buy, you are the best.️🕷️🕷️
I do miss Cappuccino, but still love the tour once again.
What a timing. I'm currently on my lunch break. Instead of eating my lunch, I'll just watch The Dark Den! 👌💯
it will be a looong lunch break xD
@@TheDarkDen can you make a video on the shelves you made I want to build one just like that
Good luck moving everything lol
Coming back after a looong while of not watching ur vids. Im glad to hear she is now ur wife man i remember the times u talked about "ur girlfriend". Very happy for u and i hpe ur channel continues to grow
Much appreciation for such a long video, this probably took so long to make!
I've read that male chameleons, when they reach sexual maturity, become more likely to interact with humans and more willingly get on hands

I'm blown away at your memory! How do you remember everything about each species?
...not to dismiss his memory abilities, but it’s clear he is very passionate about these creatures, so it’s not too difficult to remember all about them when you’re this engrossed in a subject(s)

I swear, every time I see these fuzzy guys, I just wish spiders would let you pet them a little.
I am so in love with his accent!!
It looked like Felix was waving at the start, how adorable
Petko: Yeah I have 150+ animals no big deal.
Me: Bragging to my friends that I'm keeping a small spider that I found on my balcony.
Your channel has allowed me to get over my fear of spiders! Thank you petko 😭
Wow, that was intense yet incredible. Only now we can really see how huge your "collection" is :O

Gonna start the video now and continue tomorrow, while breakfast... 🤙🏼
THX PETKO!!!
That's a chad collection.
Loved it! Thank you for putting in all those hours for us 🖤
Maybe before the end of the year a tribute to all we have lost this year. Sascha, Cappuchino, Seladonia, the longlegged spider whose name I don't know with the long spinnerets, the mantisses, the versicolorbabies 😢 and probably a couple of animals I missed. May they rest in peace.
This was fantastic, I thoroughly enjoyed it, good to have a longer look at the dark den and all of your animals. 💜🐢🦎🐌🕷️🦂
That’s great your getting a new Dark Den ! love your channel & ive learned so much from you ! much love from Atlanta Ga
Heck ye! I needed this hour long video after a long crappy day at work!
Thank for the hard work making thekng vid was nice to see them all makes us feel like we are there thanks buddy looking forward to the new dark den
Woah! I haven't watched your videos in about a year or two, and youve grown your collection so much. Love seeing the success
Do you take Felix to look at the others?/what does he think?
My labrador is fascinated by other animals on the tv or in the pet shop.
I’ve just found your channel and am loving it! It’s wonderful how much you respect the animals and the fact you genuinely are in awe of them. It’s really nice to watch. Thank you for sharing.
That was AWESOME. OBTs do not disappoint - scary as ever. Most of all though, a worthwhile exercise for Dark Den archive.
Thank you for showing us your dark den! It was so interesting and fun to watch, I hadn't realized it was almost an hour long. I love to see your regulars, your collection is amazing. Linda did NOT disappoint 😂
I've seen many of your videos before . But I saw this one the first time yesterday. Awesome. Thank you for showing and sharing all your animals
You told it right dude😊 bellissima means beautiful ✌🏼
Love all the vids, will you be bringing back tarantula hot sauce challenge?. That was my fav trend here.
I remember watching when he was still in his appt and so tiny. You've grown so much it's inspiring!
The dark den needs night vision cameras! And night vision goggles ( just for fun).
Aww Chameleons are so cute! The way it reaches out for you is adorable.
4:30 Desposito reminds me of my old beardy (Jack) And Jack preferred his meat too! In fact I used to feed him juvenile mice! It was fun to watch him hunt them down, and the crunch when Jack crushed the mouse's head was audible 8O, I had him for about 8 years
47:15 Kiwi!! ❤❤❤ I love this video! It's such a treat to see all the animals of the dark den! I hope you do another full dark den tour next year too!
the tarantulas are awesome but felix always steals the show for me 😍 he is so sweet! his behaviour really shows how great your care for your animals is!
Wow I love super long videos! Saved my evening
11:00 "get over here"
Scorpion from mortal Kombat famous line
32:19 "I left him overnight with the female, and the female got him"
I appreciate this took a long time for you to record but i really enjoyed seeing all the species in one go, thank you!
Look at all those tarantula's! See's felix and despacito and instantly forgets about the tarantula's... but when i saw the turtle my heart melted
That was so enjoyable! Thank you for taking the time and effort to make it happen. Pretty nice to check it off your list?
Hell yes, I’m so excited to be this early to this video. I love your channel Petko. You were the first person who introduced me to the tarantula keeping hobby. Then I found Kat, Exotics Lair and many more.
Thank you for the videos! You are one of my biggest inspirations, I hope to have a collection like you one day. Now I have 5 tarantulas of my own! 🕷🕷🕷💕
Normal man : run to the office.
Dark den : feed and clean animals.
It still surprises me that you let Felix the Chameleon like 'roam free'. I always saw them in enclosures. It doesn't like escape or anything
amazing work, 1 hour!!
Animal Room Tour ; Nice !
Animal Room Tour 58 mins: HOLY F*** YEAAAAH°
Wow Petko, thank you so much for this video, it must have been a lot of hard work to record and edit, we really appreciate that!

same here
Thanks for the great tour🤘🔥😍
Thank you for this awesome and long video!! I am so excited to see the final Dark Den!!
I wonder if Petko's wife helps him with the Dark Den? And I wonder if she has the same passion for all of these amazing animals like him :)
Dark Den - The movie
