Would that happen with every spider, or only a ornata? like would pain like this happen or or just pain from the bite from a Avicularia versicolor? did it have some sort of a minor venom?
@Bisoneer Avic woiuld be like a bee sting actually less....most tarantula bites are nowhere near this bad...poecilotheria or any of the old worlds have pretty bad venom...nothing that can kill you!
@Ejwoods08 well the spider doesnt have 100 teeth for ripping and tearing so it has to use venom.... but i can say watch this guy describing whats going on and then go watch a pitbull attack victim and look at the attitude difference.
Just getting into this amazing hobby and enjoying your videoes, I don't plan on getting bit but im aware it's probably gonna happen. Anyway it's nice to see what I can look forward to, lol. Thanks for posting your vids RobC.
3 days holy shit! I'm getting my first T soon and i'm wondering if some species have much more powerful venom than others or could it be that you were more allergic? Or simply that a bigger spider has more venom? I doubt my little Redknee would cause that much pain...hope i won;t find out lol. Love your vids, keep up the good work dude (and your Camera Lady!)
@IMETYOUB42 My point exactly nothing......there is nothing that ca be done to treat the bite...only muscle relaxers and pain meds. there has never been a allergic reaction either.
@tarantulaguy1976 Well you're quite wrong in fact. The emergency department would provide oxygen therapy (the man in this video is short of breath), administration of IV fluids to help with low blood pressure (the man in this video is dizzy and confused, a sign of shock requiring fluid therapy), and medications to combat allergies would also be administered at the ER.
@IMETYOUB42 Your quite wrong actually....the venom also blocks the pain receptors so most pain meds do not do anything and the reason I was out of breath was not shock...it was my diaphram contracting...quite guessing and these cause and posting terrible nfo...you are NOT a Dr...a nures and that is about it.
@tarantulaguy1976 Many people can have allergic anaphylactic reactions to tarantula bites much the same way people have anaphylactic reactions to bee stings, trust me I've seen it many times. Yes allergic reactions to tarantula bites are rare, but there are other symptoms which in my opinion can and should be treated by professional medical personnel.
@tarantulaguy1976 My only comment was a sense of frustration that this guy was just sitting there talking on and on when he should have been in the car driving to the nearest ER. I'm sure he's not a moron, just as I am not a dumbass. By the way, muscle relaxers and pain meds are legitimate therapeutic drugs and they are only a small part of what can be done to assess and treat a tarantula or other venomous bug bite.
DUUUUUDDE YOU HAVE NOT MADE ANY VIDEOS FOR LIKE A LONG TIME :((((( WERE YOU ATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW I LIKE YOUR VIDEOS AND I SUBSCRIBED!!!!! :DDDDDD
hello, my gf and I just bought ourselves tarantulas today on a whim. She bought a pink toe and i bought a salmon pink bird eater. The guy in the store said they are super easy to keep but im a bit nervous about the temperature. Temps are in the 60's in our house during the winter, and how much of a problem is hte humidity? The tanks have a paper towel in them that is used to provide humidity by keeping it moist. How often do i need to soak that? Should I mist them often?
i completely support what u are doing, you seem very well educated about these spiders and look like your wife supports you very much also you seem to have a shitload of coolass spiders >:D!!!!!
@tarantulaguy1976 Ornatas are known to bite more when YOU'RE criticizing with a wrong grammar and a damn old browser with free steak knives for every download.
@SANDRAo3o92k11 I dont pic the adds, google does...probally the browser you are using and go look at your grammer LOL!! "much more moron" yeah....I think it is clear who the moron is.
@tarantulaguy1976 does it ever randomly hurt to this day? i know in some cases with other animal bites that people will get a feeling of pain here and there
I think all of them are accepted: Antivenom or antivenin or antivenene. If I would talk on a conference, I probably would use antivenene, which has some Latin origins, antivenin has French origins, and antivenom is of course English. And all three languages are accepted, in INTERNATIONAL herp. talk. Still the Latin is that most of them prefer. Anivenom is a totally accepted version even in Hungary, where I came from, and all around the earth.
No dont take him out of my home! *bites* yeh that will teach you for taking my friend away , she didnt want him to go so she used violence, Ouch what was the outcome ? how long did it wear off and stuff?
@tarantulaguy1976 dont listen to the people on here they dont know what the hell they are talking about. i have only ever owned one tarantula and i loved it. i can see how someone can become attached to them. if anyone has anything to say about this bite, tell them that all animals bite. its one of few deffenses they have. females can be a bit more aggressive i hear.
I have been watching this guy and his spiders on youtube for a while now and if he got bit it was definately a freak thing because he is amazing with his spiders. I just got my firt taranchula this week and I hope to be even just half the good resonsible care giver for my spider, and it really is addicting to have one, I am already planning what my next one will be. I for a chaco brown
Unbelievable how many uneducated people are posting idiot comments under your video! I was bitten at least 6 times, by 3 different tarantulas, and nothing serious happened! And I read everything about my spiders, before I handle them... For me it is enough that I can't die!, I will not have tissue damage, like with a brown recluse, I wont suffer brain damage XD, I will only have some HORRIBLE pain, and my hand feels like it will explode, but nothing more! I bet you most of those people who are
commenting on your video, are NOT professionals... Keeping 20 spiders will not make them pros! And I enjoyed watching you suffering! :) (just kidding) You know the risks, which are not much (well depending on the species)
if you know how to handle them! I bet your wife was jealous, after that love bite! :)
By the way I was talking about the idiots who are posting nonsense! And I am NOT a professional either, but I read a lot about my animals. And I don't post idiotic comments, if I don't know the answer, because I don't want to look like an idiot. (If I don't know something, I don't try to be Mr. Nerd :) I just don't understand why are they posting nonsense comments.. There are people always who will read their comments, who know that they talk b+++s+it, and they will shame those idiots...
I just don't like when somebody has a big mouth, and they know somewhere from 0 - 5% of what they are talking about. I am not talking about the people who are not idiots. I am talking about the people who are trying to make you believe lies! Just because they are creeps. I wouldn't call it being a nerd when I answer to their crap, they asked for it. I usually don't answer bullshit, but when I see this many, it is disturbing. So that is my trolling :P

@FurorVikingorum Actually there isnothing the ER can do (painkillers/muscle relaxers) and there has never been a death or allergic recation to T venom.

Sooo, this is gonna be a dumb question i guess but what is a good species of tarantula for a beginner? Im a little skittish about it o.O But i reallly want to experience having one.
@NekkroQu33n King Baboon (Citharischius crawshayi) really friendly easy to handle they grow really quick too!
Ignore all of that.........I have one of those and shes highly defensive and really slow growing...
I started with a Chilean Rose (G. Rosea) alot of people start with that species because they are easy to get hold of but be warned not all are docile.....I have one that is fairly defensive.....
There a few nice T's to start with, research is they key! You wont regret getting one!
hey dude ive been having a ''P.p'' ( its a 5k word projets at my school in sec 5) stands for personal project and i'm doing it on spider behavior,etc. I tought if i could maybe like borrow 1 of your spiders or you could do a video explaining territorial display behavior and/or the haunting technique of one of your tarantulas ( i mean like an ambush attack behidn corner not the usual put roach in face you know ;) ) that would really help my project dude thanks .
I know youre very experineced in keeping tarantulas! I have a question to you. I just got my new B. smithi, and i worry about that, the smithi's carapace isnt black at all, i had smithis before, but i never met a smithi like that. What do you think aboout this? Maybe shes a hybrid or shes an old girl and thats why her carapace looks like that? :S
The seller told me that she has been adult for 1,5 months, can it be true? I thinking about matink but i dont want to make hybrids.. thanks
I'll remind myself never to get bitten by a Poke! Ouch. Did you have cramps later on in the week? I'm about to get myself a P Murinus and going through some bite reports on here. There aren't many to be honest. Yours is the first genuine one I've found
Opps...yea...don't know if I told you or if you even remember...But I went with Paul Becker as you suggested for my 4 new mexi baby slings. Yup! there all alive and well...Please I would really like some view...check out my vids if you have a chance..they're in my profile..
I'm SOOOO glad I watched this before unpacking my P. ornata pair tonight. NOT lol. Thanks for posting this Rob It's good to have a healthy respect for these animals.
although i´m so scared about spiders i love your vids. you have beautiful animals and i love the "baaam and then laugh" comments in nearly all feeding vids xDD greetings from germany, jessie
Hey Rob....Just wanted to say that I find your vids very informative. Actually considering widening my collection and breeding too, but not right away. Forget all these idiots who make negative comments. They don't understand how truly beautiful these creatures are. My fav's are by far the Ornamentals. The cobalt is intriging too. Maybe I can email you for more info about breeding and do's and don'ts, etc. Later....Bob
I have a question: When someone is bitten by a pit bull or snake and has to go to the hospital, they kill it. If someone is bit by a tarantula and has to go to the hospital, do they kill the tarantula?
@Avnirvana1 No, rob loves his Ts too much to ever do that. He realizes thats just their animal instinct and its what they do. So no a tarantula that bites will not be killed unless the owner kills it out of his own anger and if you get bit and decide to kill it you shouldnt have one anyway. The risk goes with the hobby and you have to accept those risks.
Wow, that looks amazingly painful :( I'm glad you made a full recovery. I got bit by a spider before, the bad part being that it was a black widow. Incredibly painful, even after receiving antivenin about 13 minutes after the bite. In New Mexico, this stuff just happens haha. But I can't imagine a bite from a spider that large, even if the venom is less potent...
Thanks for documenting the experience (I know just how painful a hot bite can be) it does show the "no worse than a bee sting" brigade that, like venomous snakes, tarantula bites can be serious depending on species.
hey rob i finally broke down and got my first T a beautiful 4 month old G rosea Female who is just the sweetest little thing omg. got her for 22 bucks and got her home and housed, thanks for sparking my interest along with jon. i sent u a friend add if u wanna accept if not then ill take it as a fuck off lol.
hey rob any advice for me recently lost a regalis she stuck in her shed i have a few other pokies and they shed fine but the regalis had trouble las time also, could it be just the individual t ????? thanks buddy also bought some stuff on your reccomendation from pet center usa thanks for the advice....id also like to send a shout out to rob and jon3800 great guys wiling to help out and share their knowledge u guys give this hobby a good name....
If it's the "worst pain (you've) ever felt in (your) life," then you wouldn't be talking to us and making a video. Don't bullshit us, macho man. All of us have felt pain that rendered us incapable of speaking. Or am I in a minority? Stop the 21st century OMG superlative crap. We'd all be better off and better informed as creatures on the planet because of it.
@curandero88 I am not a OMG punk like you...you have no idea what your atalking about you little bitch who would go crying to moma. I used to box with broken fingers and ribs and this hurt worse. I had symptoms for over 3 months....go some where little boy.
@tarantulaguy1976 lmao touche Rob, on a real question though would i need to go to the hospital if for some reason i got bit by a rosie or a brazilian black or a b smithi, im buying one of the three tomorrow and this is my only worry is getting tagged hospital visits are too damn expensive.
@tarantulaguy1976 for sure man, hey i sent u a friend request, dont know if ur accepting or not but i love your videos and i really like your personality with yout T's and think you have a really sweet family and would love to have you as a friend and ur Bams just crack me up lmao
Well aren't you an uninformed smartass. That man was kind enough to document a bite report on a tarantula, never on youtube; that is capable of putting you in the hospital with severe muscle, leg cramps, nausea, swelling, intense pain and more. It's people like him and myself that inform people about them and what NOT to start off., hence better informed
Why don't you get bitten by a Poecilotheria and see how long it takes to for you to realize its real and gonna start crying
@curandero88 - First of all.. sorry that happened to you big guy (tantantulaguy1976).. and to you 88. who needs you anyway. And why the hell are you getting pissed off at something that didn't happen to you? No, you're not a minority to feeling pain. And yes, you are a major pain in the arse.
@TarantulaRookie56 Actualy no, there is not a documented case of a alergic treaction to a T...i am EXTREMELY alergic to bees (throats swell) and no allergic reaction from T bites.
@tarantulaguy1976 i know nothing about spiders and i'll probably never buy one, but i have a few questions. did the spider that bit you inject you with something that make the pain go throughout your arm? or did he/she just his a nerve or something
i just started with my collection and i got a deal on some p. metallicas i was wondering where u live and if there was an easier way of getting a hold of even by email or something. Im one of ur biggest fans and have leaned so much from ur videos. I am in canada my name is Jason and my email is onoct@hotmail.com or facebook me at Jason c. Russello. thx and i look forward to talking to u :)
Ouch! Do you rekon this was worse than the P.regalis bite? if so do you reckon its because the ornata was bigger (and injected more venom) or because this species has stronger venom?
Looks painful, They sound like a quite a Venomous Tarantula if it was one of the most painful things in your life, i dont know much about Tarantula's so sorry about that.
laughing is what we do to cope with stress, and i imagine being bitten and having your arm cramp up like that is very stressful. i laugh when i get super frustrated to calm down, which makes me seem a bit crazy but yeah.
fuck all these haters, Rob you the man. this is not fake. I know how bad T bites are, and this is a venomous 10" T. Rob is tough as nails if you ask me.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
how do I spell this word...? F-A-K-E? Yeah Fake I feel is a very ccurate way to describe what i am seeing. This guy better keep his day job 'cause he's no George Romaro.
@jimtactical How do I spell your name ....um DUMB FUCK would be about right....fake, yeah sure. I do not needa ady job I have oil rights. I also have medical reports as welll as documentation....so take your lame ass some where else little boy.
@jimtactical ---Little Bitches like you need to kill yourselves because you are worthless to society. Some people have tolerance for pain, and don't cry themselves to sleep when they get hurt. And how the hell does this look fake?
@demonjack123 --- I don't give a flying fuck if you think it was harsh. I'm in a really bad mood, if you wan't to see why-- look on my channel comments.
@jimtactical sorry, but you're a dumbass. he would gain nothing from faking this. he has plenty of subscribers already and lots of views on most of his videos.

@NekkroQu33n King Baboon (Citharischius crawshayi) really friendly easy to handle they grow really quick too!
Ignore all of that.........I have one of those and shes highly defensive and really slow growing...
I started with a Chilean Rose (G. Rosea) alot of people start with that species because they are easy to get hold of but be warned not all are docile.....I have one that is fairly defensive.....
There a few nice T's to start with, research is they key! You wont regret getting one!

That's a great reason to be careful with this one 'cause Poecilotheria Ornata is one of the most venomous tarantulas on Earth.

Hi Rob!
I know youre very experineced in keeping tarantulas! I have a question to you. I just got my new B. smithi, and i worry about that, the smithi's carapace isnt black at all, i had smithis before, but i never met a smithi like that. What do you think aboout this? Maybe shes a hybrid or shes an old girl and thats why her carapace looks like that? :S
The seller told me that she has been adult for 1,5 months, can it be true? I thinking about matink but i dont want to make hybrids.. thanks

Hey Rob....Just wanted to say that I find your vids very informative. Actually considering widening my collection and breeding too, but not right away. Forget all these idiots who make negative comments. They don't understand how truly beautiful these creatures are. My fav's are by far the Ornamentals. The cobalt is intriging too. Maybe I can email you for more info about breeding and do's and don'ts, etc. Later....Bob

I have a question: When someone is bitten by a pit bull or snake and has to go to the hospital, they kill it. If someone is bit by a tarantula and has to go to the hospital, do they kill the tarantula?
Avnirvana1 5 months ago
@Avnirvana1 No, rob loves his Ts too much to ever do that. He realizes thats just their animal instinct and its what they do. So no a tarantula that bites will not be killed unless the owner kills it out of his own anger and if you get bit and decide to kill it you shouldnt have one anyway. The risk goes with the hobby and you have to accept those risks.

Wow, that looks amazingly painful :( I'm glad you made a full recovery. I got bit by a spider before, the bad part being that it was a black widow. Incredibly painful, even after receiving antivenin about 13 minutes after the bite. In New Mexico, this stuff just happens haha. But I can't imagine a bite from a spider that large, even if the venom is less potent...

Thanks for documenting the experience (I know just how painful a hot bite can be) it does show the "no worse than a bee sting" brigade that, like venomous snakes, tarantula bites can be serious depending on species.
Hope you made a full recovery.

If it's the "worst pain (you've) ever felt in (your) life," then you wouldn't be talking to us and making a video. Don't bullshit us, macho man. All of us have felt pain that rendered us incapable of speaking. Or am I in a minority? Stop the 21st century OMG superlative crap. We'd all be better off and better informed as creatures on the planet because of it.

@curandero88
Well aren't you an uninformed smartass. That man was kind enough to document a bite report on a tarantula, never on youtube; that is capable of putting you in the hospital with severe muscle, leg cramps, nausea, swelling, intense pain and more. It's people like him and myself that inform people about them and what NOT to start off., hence better informed
Why don't you get bitten by a Poecilotheria and see how long it takes to for you to realize its real and gonna start crying

@tarantulaguy1976 i know nothing about spiders and i'll probably never buy one, but i have a few questions. did the spider that bit you inject you with something that make the pain go throughout your arm? or did he/she just his a nerve or something
