Poecilotheria bara "lowland" - Ivory Ornamental Molt

[Sturmy76]

Mellow? She's pretty much like "Whadday want? I should move some? Oh, okeeeee *moves*" :)

Kinda interesting to see one that is that calm. Then again - they all have their own personalities :)

Nice vid again, Jon!

[DavidtheAnimalMan]

yeah i figured the bark would be from outside. i just cant seem to trust to put something i found outside into my T enclosure no matter how well i cleaned it. but in the end its all for the comfort and wellbeing for my Ts.

this is nuts more power too you if this is what you like great  but fuck this is nuts

[Jon3800]

@TeamshakeNbake

This is my hobby and I've been keeping them for more than 15 years. Its nowhere near nuts than what you do making fireballs, exploding cantaloupes, etc

[TeamshakeNbake]

@Jon3800 fair point, hope you didn't take that as too much of a negative Im something of an arachnophobe I got within five foot of an American Bison but walked around a valley when I saw a multi colored and giant spider a few minutes later. I dunno Ill risk the fireballs and guns before I tangle with spiders.

[Jon3800]

@TeamshakeNbake

well most spiders aren't very bad, and they're actually beneficial to the environment, help control the insect population, especially eating mosquitoes that carry West Nile Virus. People done on a good job at giving them extremely bad reps. Spiders will hide and take flight, they just don't come to you and bite you, like wasps or hornets

Ok P sufusca is a lot cheaper good. high land is cheaper is it not as cool looking??

How large does P Fasciata Get? 8"? mine still hasnt molted it webbed up its container about a month ago,, Ima buy P sufusca next order for sure.. baby pokies live to burrow .. do yours burrow a lot too?

[DavidtheAnimalMan]

hey whats up man, just wondering, where do you get the bark slabs.(not sure if thats a word but any way) i also use gallon containers except i use mainstays brand and i cannot find bark to fit inside my containers. any suggestions? any way thanx.

@DavidtheAnimalMan

This is cured firewood from outside

[spacespatula]

I love your videos!!! I have a little C cyaneopubescens and he's my baby!!! I want to get mooorrreee!!!!

[ultum4tegunz]

i cant pick my favorite pOkie until I own em all.. my current fav is P Fasciata..

is P bara very rare? they are priced close to P Metallica. about 50-60 dollars cheaper though

[Jon3800]

@ultum4tegunz

P.bara is rare but no where near the cost of P.metallica. My metallica was $200, that lowland was $120

[Viridoviperas]

You should put your E. uatuman in a Haplo-style setup, they are obligate burrowers. Love your 'bara'! I think mine is a male :P

[ZTTFanatic]

P. subfusca/bara is definitely more attractive than even P. metallica. The fact that they tend to be so mellow really puts them at the top of my Pokie wishlist. Is it only one of them or both that require lower temps to be comfortable ? It's also a shame they are so expensive, otherwise I would have acquired one when I had a chance.

Lovely specimens you have !

[Jon3800]

@ZTTFanatic

I'm pretty much keeping these like my other pokies and they're thriving. That bara was 1/2 inch just 3 years ago :)

[Jon3800]

@ZTTFanatic

compared to P.metallica, these aren't expensive at all. They are around $105 for the highlands and lowlands for $110-120. TC is selling 3/4'' metallica for $250 each

[ZTTFanatic]

@Jon3800 To me, any unsexed specimens over 100$ is expensive :) Sexed females I won't mind throwing some extra "bacon" for on the other hand.

[crazymangonewild123]

thanks for the update jon!

[BooshgaFilms]

the P Bara has a lighter carapace and the folio pattern doesn't really have the black markings in the middle when compared to the P subfusca highland :P

[ultum4tegunz]

ima buy one of these next time i get a job & some cash lol! Pual becker sells most the pokies. including yellow back orn.

[ihagtafuith]

Congrats on the molt Jon, she'a beaut!

[edwardpaulfoustjr]

1300 videos congrats cant wait for episode 3800

[Buzzgrower]

Love the Poecilotherias!

[brandonleeashe]

Highland is darker, but it's so hard to tell the difference because of color variances in molting cycles and whatnot. Bara is my favorite pokie as well! I think it looks way better than metallica

[Jon3800]

@brandonleeashe

so do I. Can't beat the black/gold/yellow and purple hues

[simonredeight]

1st

[simonredeight]
