[deltagamer24]

@YogDodoth ige bough6 of mine from stores and none have died but i do agree they are wild captured and there used to the perfect habitat like they had

[xX6pOiSoN6Xx]

where can i get one of these gorgeous spiders?

[thebarcode80]

hey robc, you said a little into it that you handle all of your Ts. i feel teh same way. as long as you know what you are doing i think you can handle anything.

[meatsmith]

Whats the largest specie of pokie?

[CKelaiditis]

I used to handle my P. Ornata too, then I took an arrow in the knee.

[HomicidalNun666]

"i dont think she'll bite" is she the one who got you in 09? lol you have balls man. pokies are scary

[wowheadforeal]

nice date!

[lilwyteboi206]

Whats the difference between a p regalis and p ornata?

[tarantulaguy1976]

@lilwyteboi206 Different locations, ornata is bigger and more aggressive with a worse bite.

[JoeAinslie]

@tarantulaguy1976 What's up tguy1976.. huge fan of your channel!!! your videos are awesome... you and jon3800 have the best videos out there... I just got my first p ornata.. it's about 2 inches or so.. super excited to watch it grow... just wanted to let you know how awesome you are... ooh yeah... no one ever seems to give your wife any credit for your vids.. lol... it's great that she supports the hobby.. this world needs more women like her. PEACE !

[KnoxBlondie]

Wonder what she nicked her fang on. Big girl! Very pretty.

[beyppah]

What does "grabid" mean? Sorry if i botched the spelling!

[tarantulaguy1976]

@beyppah LOL!! It means pregnant

[nysilliest]

I watched this video 3 years ago yesterday. I ordered my ornata sling from Botar a day later. She's fully grown now. Thanks for this vid man.

[Flakygal]

Was this the species that bit you?

[tarantulaguy1976]

@Flakygal Yes it was

[JRPythons]

@tarantulaguy1976 hey man, I'm getting one of these tomorrow..I know bites are different for different people but how bad was it?

[HatesStupidPeople194]

@tarantulaguy1976 lol so uve had a pokie bite from a regalis and an ornata? damn bro

[EpicMoz]

Is she the one who bit your hand later on? how did you get on at the hospital?

[atcscc]

looks like a big garden spider :)

[Vorhizzle]

Are there any special risks / rewards to buying a tarantula at a petstore... say petco or something or is it better to order one from a private seller?

[YogDodoth]

@Vorhizzle 99% of the tarantulas for sale at pet stores are illegal captures, animals who never addapt to captivity life, and finally they die by stress, illness or whatever... always buy to private breeders.

[themasterbater6996]

is this spider lethal to humans i dont think so but just asking

[tarantulaguy1976]

@themasterbater6996 Actualy no tarantula is but it hurts VERY bad....very bad bite.

[surfergirllexi]

ahhh. the famous fighting, biting, beautiful T. :) shes beautiful :)

[Mamba0608]

Hey man awesome, awesome P.Ornata!!! How old is she? I'm getting a 3cm P.ornata sling next week :D

[rock4ever304]

How u know when a trantula is going to molt ?

[DubstepArtists]

@rock4ever304 You can tell when there either not eating or if the hairs on the abdomen look as if its going bald

[LouTheMetalhead]

That scares the shit out of me

[iReckIesS]

"She could dart forward and bite me, but I don't think she bites"...

*looks at related video*

*See 10 inch female P ornata bite!!!!"

lol'ed hard.

[MegaAvicularia]

Beautiful Poecilotheria ornata.

[GRoseaHelpMe]

male daniel P ordaniel

[playwithme30]

im so excited my blue cobalt is on the way :)

[sparkingtonstanly]

i just got me first pokie :) an ornata. i dint know what she was but she looked cool and was only £12. when i got her home i realized why people say thet dont run they teleport. i put her in her new house and she lapped it like 5 times and shot up to the open lid in a what seemed like a second.... shes gunna be fun!! :)

[cihc123]

hiting the floor with my hand doesn't work on my p. ornata :) she is just rushing forward...:)

[Cherry1676]

so cute!! i want one D: ! i might be getting a chilean rose though :) !

[991705991705]

i want a tarantula but im too scared to get bit :3

[BooshgaFilms]

@991705991705

get an avicularia avicularia

or a brachypelma smithi...

they are both very docile and usually wont bite :)

[padmdhs]

Which pokie is your favorite Rob and why i know a lot of people say the mettalica but that is a rare t to say the least and to most t owners a dream to own but out of the regular pokies the regalis,ornata,miranda etc

[tarantulaguy1976]

@padmdhs Miranda hands down!

[AccebKidrah]

This the lady that bit you? haha. Absolutely gorgeous.

[TwinUzis]

Looks like a giant hobo spider, to me.

[noobhater655]

Would you handle your King Baboon???

[surix33]

i got those in my garden :O . and under my couch .

[tarantulaguy1976]

@surix33 Yeah right!! LOL!!!

[VinnyG253]

Is that the darling Clover?

[tarantulaguy1976]

@VinnyG253 That it is!!!

[zarrurer12]

@tarantulaguy1976 what do you mean by gravid?

[DubstepArtists]

@zarrurer12 Gravid, Pregnant basically

[trommelumsen]

"I garan T you that"!=o) Cool vid!

[Penguinqueen423]

What a beautiful spider! ' w '

[harrypotterboii]

i live in canada so all i can get is freking rosies i want a baby mexican red knee dont care if they take sorta long to grow they look so CUTE as baby and awsome as adult

[shmexyboy27]

dude if i seen that i would be flipping out like a little girl -.- were did u get the balls to handle these thngs?

[tarantulaguy1976]

@shmexyboy27 LOL!!! They just do not scare me!

[darthd101]

@tarantulaguy1976 The only thing i'd scare about me is the fight ive never seen a real one but it doesnt creep me out

[lukeslater1986]

gorgeous!!

[1992pattrow]

4 months latter, she bites you

[Mrponce2123]

I Heard Those Spiders Could Be Very Aggresive

[seapeddler]

I'd have a problem walking on 8 legs.

I wonder if spiders can dream or actually perform complex maneuvers such as in a maze.

I know about mouse agility, but is there a spider agility course?

I feel there are bigger spiders on earth than this one.

[PitbullV6]

dude, i would SHIT if one of those came near me.

[Gir3993]

"I'll handle her, I don't even think she'll bite" Care to retract you're previous statement? :P Was just looking at your old vids, and thought that sentence was funny given what happened with that same spider.

[tarantulaguy1976]

@Gir3993 I got owned at that statement LOL

[DawgcityClev]

@tarantulaguy1976 lmao I'll be ordering my 1st "T" next week a Salmon Pink. But yea, she owned you bigtime!! They are so big, yet the speed is mind-boggling at times. I hope I get a female.

[drewplommer]

are ornatas the largest pokies? for the most part?

[tarantulaguy1976]

Ornata & rufilata are the biggest.

[manilacrew]

what a gorgeous P.ornata rob! :) how is she? i would like to own one too, actually i want to collect a number of pokies. thing is, they said it's not quite "ok" for a novice n the hobby. i've only collected a b.smithi, b.albo h.lividum. they said its quite different. "pokies" any recommendations for a first time pokie keepers? cheers rob! im addicted n your vids man! haha :)

bless and peace, to you and your family.

-josh

[tarantulaguy1976]

I would start with a P. regalis

[POLIDAMIAN]

lol i just ordered P. ornata as my first pokie XD

[VinnyG253]

@manilacrew I'd say a P.Pederseni or Ghost ortamental are good ways to go. Not overly aggressive, thier bite doesn't pack as much of a punch as an Ornata. I have two of rob's slings that are just awesome.

[Hashpotato]

when she bit you, did she hold on for long or was it a hit and run?:P scary stuff

[tarantulaguy1976]

She bit me hard enough to jerk my hand down LOL

[mrxyo]

If I were you, I wouldnt treat such spider like that. Poecilotheria is not Brachypelma...

[tarantulaguy1976]

I'm well aware that it's not a Brachy....I've been doing this over 20 years...and what was I doing that was so bad? I've handled her many times, and I've been bit by her before - so what? My fault...and she's treated better than some people treat their families.

[mrxyo]

Im just giving my opinion. I have P. regalis and I never handle it or let it run on the floor but thats my personal point of view and I respect yours.

[tarantulaguy1976]

You do have a point, ifr you can't read the body language of a T like this you need to use extreme caution!

[InKedBig]

Dude what is your problem... I have watched most all of his videos and never have i seen him mis- handle or truly mistreat any of his T's...quit being such a goon and tollin his videos please

[DeathKnightChrisjay]

Check out the abdomenal marks on that Ornata, very cool...

[INKfr33k]

as a true arachnophob I can say OMG what are you doing letting that on the floor???!!! LOL anyway she is very pretty...

[silentpounce]

not to be gay or anyhting but your triceps look bigger have you been working out?

[ukmachinehead]

Is this the biter?

She does look beautiful. :-)

[tarantulaguy1976]

This is her, but she has molted 2X since this vid!!

[ukmachinehead]

Nice. :-)

I like my tiger ornamental i hope it becomes as beautiful its a lovely colour mix. But only about 2 and half inch. seems to be growing quic tho. :-)

I just bought a load of nice decor stuff fr my ts so im hoping to set up some realy nice looking tanks for all my babies soon. :-) My goliath shed for 2nd time since i got it and its realy increased alot in size since last moult must be about 3 inch roughly. :-) do you know about this EXO TERRA TERRARIUM BACKGROUND

stuff?

[darlinggirl2]

She's beautiful. Congrats.

[MClardizzle11]

Careful she may bite.......oh never mind LOL jk Rob again hope u feel better.

[ourkrakowfilms]

yeah now she bit ya haha

[tarantulaguy1976]

Are you being sarcastic??? Really not funny my friend!!!

[ourkrakowfilms]

is that a reply to my comment rob?

i meant nothing by it, i just watched ur most recent video about u being bitten, and then i watched this and you having ur hand right next to it.. and u saying " i dont think shel bite" lol

sarcasm is a bite onesided without actually talking, text is wierd

[tarantulaguy1976]

yeah, just disregard my comment...I didn't realize at the time who wrote it and was too out of it to figure anything out. LOL I'm still too dizzy and fuzzy headed to think straight! (my wife is actually writing all of my replies - she tells me what's said and I tell her what to write. I'm in too much pain to type!).

[ourkrakowfilms]

no worries rob, i respect you very much as a person...and ur videos bring the T hobbie to people like myself in australia..

ur insight and just overall handling of the hobbie is really something that should be noted well done.

anyways keep the vids coming loving them.

[gerrad1973]

"i dont think she'd bite"...you gotta laugh rob!

[Raptiosaur]

Hey Tdude

got a question

would you suggest a P. ornata, P. Fasciata, P. Irminia, P.regalis, or P. rufilata and why?

[ultum4tegunz]

hes abeast but i dont think

BEst colleector no doubt~

[ultum4tegunz]

omg they get to 10" i heard they hit 9 max.

[go0dzilla]

hey how can i tell if my pink toe is a girl or boy??

[swimmersgolonger]

Hey Rob, I was looking into getting a pokie and was wondering what your favorite species is to own. I was thinking the Ornata just cuz its big haha.

[tarantulaguy1976]

One of my favorites for sure!!!

[Raptiosaur]

ur the number 1 t collector/breeder in the WORLD!!

i need 2 visit u when i get my drivers licence!

[tarantulaguy1976]

No tarantula bite has been fatal, this sp will hurt badly, crampinng for up to 3 weeks, high temps, naseau, joints hert.....just not fun at all!

[bloodgost2]

haha you say this 2 months before your bite.

[snoozert1]

man your so cool for having tons of tarantulas :D

[KawaiiKemonomimi]

She runs better on carpet than my smaller spiders do. Hehe. Judging by all the terrariums you've purchased and made in your other videos, you're doing good it looks like.

[oncaboy]

is it me or is there something wrong whit the way she walks

[tarantulaguy1976]

The claws on the end of her legs were catching on the carpet.

[PDDM89]

Soooo sooo beautiful, love it Rob, thanks for sharing

[DalenSK8R]

u should send some little p. ornatas to me. those are the only type of pokie i dont have( beside the yellowback ornamental)

[frecaldodalhopper]

do you have any togo starburst t's. from frecaldodalhopper.  thanks

[DaytimeName]

Excellent!

[tarantulaguy1976]

She is a beauty but M-E-A-N!!!

[KaceyJane]

[omguy1234]
