Since she's huge, and a Huntsman, I think Artemis would suit her!
That's so perfect!!
PERFECT BRO- OMGG YES
Artemis was a male🤡
I had a much bigger one here loose for a while - I called him 'Fluffy' and he was a sweet heart - friendly, relaxed and happy to hang out on the wall.. Red Backs, and white tails (small) get dispatched, but Australians generally see this big baby as harmless and worth putting back outside to safety. They chase cockroaches very well. Just the size scares some people.
The wolfies could be named BLANCA and BLANCO (since those mean "white" in Spanish). Which is in line with the snow theme.
"I asked him not to send me anything scary 😅".
I can think of no better way to guarantee that will happen 😂
Its moments like when you were rehousing the huntsman where I really feel like rehousing some inverts can be like defusing a bomb.
Good analogy!!!
Good part about keeping huntsman spiders: they don't bite for basically any reason you might give them.
Bad part about keeping huntsman spiders: their reaction time is much much shorter than yours lol
I was bit by a huge huntsman in my sleep, in had the 2 piercing fangmarks on my hand about 1/2" apart and I had seen the huntsman in my room earlier that night.
There's an amusing video on CZcams of a guy dangling his finger in front of a huntsman and the spider lunges forward and chomps him
@@realtruenorth this story does not compute for me. How were you asleep after you saw a huge huntsman in your room?
@@memento81 because I tried to catch it and it was so fast. I couldn't, so, it was still in my room.
@@memento81 also, I didn't think I would have this huge bite with 2 fang punctures on my hand the next morning. ,,probably won't sleep in a room with one again. I didn't think it would bite me.
"I really like her but I'm also like really afraid of her so...Cool!" 😂 You are just the best! Convinced me to keep arachnids and appreciate them for the wonder that they are!
it's surprisingly comforting to see someone who loves these creepy crawlies so much still be absolutely freaked out by them sometimes dfgsdfh
like, yea I don't wanna squish spiders in my home, but a wolf spider is still really big and really scary to catch and release 😭
I love how slowly she turned around when you poked her like "I BEG your pardon" X-D
Morgan le Fay, maybe? Because she's beautiful, powerful, self-possessed, and hard to read.
That is one really chill huntsman. My Holconia immanis would have been on the other side of the room the second the lid was opened on that tub. They are gorgeous spiders but total nightmares to work with.
Kat I used to have an external fear of spiders ( I still kinda do) but watching your videos overtime has helped me feel less afraid.
Same here greetings from Germany. Now im kinda interessted in them.
I like the names Jasper and Juniper for the new wolf spider couple. I know it’s now snow themed but Jasper means white and Juniper berries make me think of a Christmas reef
The baby wolf spiders are SO CUTE 💚💚💚💚
Angel babies🕷
3:30 - Love that little ring-shaped spot on her head. She's like a little puppy!
You have definitely helped me with my spider fear, but any huntsman i will still be TERRIFIED of lol
Same!
Name the Huntsman, Mortisha. Lol There's nothing funnier than watching a spider enthusiast freak out trying to get the spiders in their enclosures! Tfs!
She’s beautiful! I live in Australia and huntsmans are super common. In summer, I have to shake out my towels before using them because they love the humidity of a bathroom. The females are usually pretty chill; as a rule of thumb, I find that the bigger they are the less scary as they don’t move quite as fast as the smaller males (easier to pick up and put outside). Thanks for sharing 😊
I also live in Australia, and I wish I was as brave as you. I'm usually not freaked out by spiders at all, but the way huntsmans move just gives me the heebie jeebies. I'd legit let a tarantula walk on my face, but hunstmans are a no no.
Frosty for the Male ⛄️
Elsa for the Female ❄️
Wait till it’s grown and is bigger than a bird eating spider! Have you seen photos from Australia and see how huge they get?!?
That enclosure is way too small for that one.
Kat.... I felt your anxiety..... You are very brave. Love your videos
I can’t believe Frank did that to you 🤣 Welcome to the world of giant huntsmen, Kat! I’m here if you need help. Also, I’ll happily take the babies if you get a sac or three (huntsmen can triple clutch- my last breeding did). 💜🕷️
I don't know about this species but some of the Australian species can drop 5 sacks atleast one of mine did.
that's not a giant huntsman...come down to Australia ;-) I got 1 somewhere in my room (wild) just hanging around probably 1.5x time the beauty in this video.
@@davepasternyour buggin fam.
I do everything in my power to keep spiders out of my house and you order them in the mail... crazy!
You know she's spooky when Tarantula Kat themselves is spooked.
Herself* themselves is plural. I’ll even take themself if you’re just being weird about pronouns
@@robertlucey6302 oh no I made a singular grammar mistake, sue me
She looks like a Drucilla to me :P Your so brave Kat
I love that you, a spider lover, is still afraid of a huntsman. Love them, but also that kind of big Guy loose in your house !
Gorgeous spiders! The huntsman 😍😍😍
I love these spiders so much😍I'm happy that your getting out of your comfort zone and enjoying these new babies that are going to the best home ever 😊 love your work
We have lots of huntsmen spiders here in Australia, now that i have tarantulas and became used to big spiders i just et them run around the house, luv your videos by the way
The huntsmen spiders that is
@@keithhughes4268 I would imagine that if you let your tarantulas roam around the house free that would be dangerous, for them mostly, but still dangerous.
Haha - I woke up to a 10cm huntsman on my kitchen wall at 3am! Just another day in Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
Merry Christmas Kat and to your family. As far as ab goes . It's not for the faint for sure. I'm a long time member there . I'm sure you deal with drama all over the net. Keep up your work, obviously tons of people dig it. That's why I'm here. Thank you.
I live in Australia, and one day at work, I looked down as one was crawling up onto my neck from my chest, I also had one crawl up onto my hat while driving. They get so big and fast that they run up the legs of any fool who tries to step on them. They get so much bigger!.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays Tarantula Kat!
They are so beautiful! Congratulations on the new baby. They will be safe and we’ll taken care of ❤
🥹🥹🥹 The Hogna Lenta’s are absolutely gorgeous!!! I love love love! Awwwww! The Huntsman is so adorable!! Hugging cute adorable! I love her too! I am so shocked that you find her scary considering what you’ve experienced. I think her name should be Aurora! Which is the name that popped in my head! They are all amazing! Lucky you!!! 🖤😻🖤🫶🏼🖤🕷️🖤🕷️🖤🕷️🖤
Had huge huntsman spiders in Australia where I grew up, leg span of around 5-6 inches; I still haven't recovered from the time I woke up with one on the wall a few feet from my face.. I actually jumped out of bed backwards without standing up, landing directly on the floor in a sideways plank position. Good times xD
I love watching spiders on youtube. I know not everyone does the best job on this platform, but I went over to that board you mentioned to look through it and holy shit they are assholes.
Has to be the most laidback huntsman in the world, was waiting for it to become a blur of legs and appear on the top of a wall or disappear into the furniture in under one second😂😂 have them in and around the house here in Aus and luv them they become more chill as they age and get to know you
Enjoyed your video Kat!
Totally love your CZcams channel Kat
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, your family and friends and everyone here 🤶🎄🎅♥️🤗♥️🎅🎄🤶🕷🕸🕷🤶🎄🎅♥️🤗♥️🎅🎄🤶✨️👑✨️👑✨️
Merry Christmas Spider Queen! ❤❤
Neat spiders! Whenever I rehouse and the temp container is too big, I use a box/tote as a playground for potential escapees. This came in handy with my OBT sling that was bolty af! 😅
Name the two spiders BLIZZARD and FREEZE. Love your videos keep up the hard work.
This is random kind of, but about a month ago I came across a huge black widow in my room which happens to be my home's basement. She was walking around on my basement floor and for some reason I didn't instinctively smash her. Rather instead I googled why a black widow would randomly walk around on the floor rather than hide in a dark corner like I assumed they did. And the 2 things that popped up during my search was 1 - "They are probably dying" and 2 "Rain may of flooded her home" which made sense since my basement has flooding issues and all the water tends to run into the space under my basement stairs. While I was googling she was still just wondering around my floor, so for the first time in my life I decided to catch her. My intention was to catch her and put her outside but currently it is freezing cold outside and rainy, so I kept her. I looked up how to care for a black widow and that's how I came across your channel; since discovering your channel I have caught 2 more spiders as pets. They no longer scare me. Recently I caught another black widow who I named Cupcake and a wolf spider who I named Velvet because she is very large and genuinely looks like she is covered in crushed brown velvet. The original black widow I caught I took inspiration from your channel and named her Peaches. So thank you for doing what you do. Never did I ever think I would willingly catch spiders and take care of them, but here I am now with 3 and I am so obsessed with them.
I would have named her MEDUSA 😅 she can freeze you with one look lol!
i think for the boy wolf, Frost is a handsome/cute snowy name :D or for the girl too, it sounds both pretty and handsome tbh lol
Aussie here and have experienced many encounters with huntsman's. When I was a week away from giving birth to our first child, we had a massive one living in our house. My partner loved it and called it out pet and as it was hanging in our kitchen I was okay with leaving it be. One morning I was chopping up some meat to give to my dogs and it legit flew out of no where and went crazy doing circles around the meat I had just been cutting up. I literally felt my baby startle in my tummy as I screamed and jumped back. Never seen one act like that before or since. It was unreal how crazy and fast it was going, even my partner was shocked and he's a tree lopper who encounters and moves them frequently. Well done with this one, you did so good getting it into its new enclosure 👏🥰
The Countess. Like Countess Elizabeth Bathory. She’s a beautiful specimen and GIANT!
Happy holidays tarantula kat family and community!!
Awesome Video Tarantula Kat and I hope you are well Tarantula Kat 😊
just the way you said " *gasp* scary!" had me rolling lol
I love your spider enclosures.
"YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GO THE OTHER WAY, NOT POKE BACK!" absolutely sent me lmao -- you're braver than me, that first pounce made me jump. absolute beauty though!
How about Frostbite for the new cutie replacing Snowball? Or maybe Frostbite is better for the scary lady that wants to bite instead of go into her enclosure?
Great review kat from England 😊
I'm glad you didn't have to chase her. Huntsmen...well, gallop. That's the best word I have for it. Great video!
In Australia.. that is a baby huntsman lol
This video was so enjoyable 😂😂😂
Finally she got a real spider 🕷️🕸️😅
Love the new babies! I like Winter, snowflake or frosty for names lol
My adult hogna does some weird food stuff too. Hes a little killer! he will bite the crickets and then run to the highest point in the cage and just relax while the cricket dies there. Seems to happen in winter months when things are cooled off. At that point, hes done with the cricket. He doesnt eat it when he does this.
That enclosure they shipped her in is where she would have stayed 😅 great video Kat
Huntsman spider, aka the banana spider since being transplanted around the world in bunches of bananas has made them quite cosmopolitan. They’re scary looking but their bite may give you a headache and a touch of nausea but not fatal unless you’re allergic to it. The bite is no where near as bad as your black widow’s is.
all i can think about is snow white and the huntsman 😂 maybe u should name one is the wolfs snow white 🥰
Beautiful huntsman. I haven't kept them in over 30 years but maybe I'll start a new small collection again someday soon.
Huntsman = Artemis
You are a very brave soul to have all those spiders in your home!! Love the video!
Oh my god they are all so lovely!🧡🧡
Omg that spider is so so big it’s massive you handled it so well 😅
I just got my first tarantula sling 2 weeks ago had a pet huntsman for 2 years it was the biggest one I have ever seen I found it in my house I usually just put them outside this one was really friendly usually they try to bolt or give you a threatening pose but this one just gradually crawled into the container so I kept it as a pet. I use to grab it out of its tank all the time never once tryed to bite me or give me a threatening pose . It passed away about 6 years rip big boy
I woulda left that paper towel in there forever 😂😂😂
So much stress for nothing for the Barylestis lol.
You just had to remove the bark first, then it would have been easier to put the spider inside the enclosure. Then, after the spider is in the enclosure, you reintroduced the bark….
i like your sweater!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year's.
Claudia from Interviw with a Vampire, she was a scary little vamp !!
The Huntsman should be named Noel...for Christmas 🎄
I have a 28 ft × 26 ft × 14 ft enclosure for all my spiders. They moved into my greenhouse, & there they stay. 😊
I think frosty as in “frosty the snow man” would be a good name for the male & it would stay in the Christmas theme 😊
Omg, keep that thing securely locked... I'd call it Thing
I love having huntsmans around my house. They keep the venomous spiders at bay. Australia has some wicked spiders. The female that live in our house has the leg span of a side plate, she's huge but we also don't have redbacks. As for the venomous thing I'm not sure if its because we have more worrisome venomous spiders here but I've never heard of by incidents with a huntsman
A reallly REALLY big scary spider 😂💖
I was a bundle of nerves watching you rehouse it. 😰Glad it worked out well!!
That last one, I was scared just looking at it.
I have a name for the girl wolf spider which is SnowDrop known as a snow flower :>❤ hopefully you’ll like it! They are really pretty flowers and they emerge from the snow
Male wolf spider- Frost?
Huntsman - Elodie ❤️
Maybe u should do puffball and snowchu. And for the huntsman it should be Sprooly
Whoo! Those things are FAST lol
I love that you still have a nice healthy fear of some of these spiders, and she was not happy with the paintbrush. 😂
Oh? Barylestis! I have B. scutatus. Very pretty! And shes pretty chill and only eats butterflies 😅
Great video
For the little snow flakes, frosty, Jack Frost, Santa, marshmallow, snow dust, snow angel, winter, flurry
spiders made many questionable living spaces habitable by building their webs and keeping out the bugs. They can live in my place anytime.
The huntsman is built like the chad doge meme. If bodybuilding was a thing among arachnids this lady would be winning
How about snow frost and snow flake? I think mega cute and fitting coming from NYC in Dec. Awesome video as usual x
So that means the wolf spider that I saw on the ceiling last summer right before I left for my vacation is still here somewhere. Nice.
Absolutely love the huntsman 😍 I called my first ‘Hunter’
I have those two genus of huntsman making my house a regular home. They are super cool and I love them :-). I’m in Australia 🇦🇺
Name idea for the huntsmen spider is Buffy
I love huntsmans. I have them here (country Australia). They are the most non aggressive spider there is. They get much bigger than the one here and can be moved outside from the walls on your hand without drama. They have great manners and just stay on the wall and sleep behind pictures on the wall through the day. I put them outside because they get thirsty. They are social and wouldn't bite you unless you really went to some trouble to annoy them. They will actually get used to you and be quite friendly. Anyone that thinks they are dangerous is just being stupid. They are the last spider you need to fear.
Huge fangs and definitely can be aggressive. They have a reputation for being huggy and bitey if handled. The females are notorious for being very aggressive around a nest with young. They also have scary habit of jumping and almost gliding to lower surfaces if bothered. Unfortunately Doom and such like sprays don't work on them as they have lungs which negates the action of pyrethrins. I'd rather not kill spiders, but if I'm having trouble removing them I will. They are called rain spiders where I live as they tend to come indoors in rainy weather, sometimes into cars as well which can lead to some harrowing driving experiences. Nothing like a big spider appearing on your dash.
@@nerdyali4154 would have to be a different species. They can bite but basically we have zero bites per year reported and I've never met anyone who even knows of someone being bitten. Any spray residue in the house can make them sick so I usually just scoop em up and put them outside. Red backs and White tailed spiders and funnel webs I do kill and have copped bites but Huntsmans just mind their own business.
I caught a GIANT female Tigrosa Georgicola in my hallway a month or 2 ago and kept her and lemme tell you she is amazing. I love her so much. And she has an INCREDIBLE feeding response and eats a lot
Love your Fall Out Boy Sweatshirt :)
they are so cool and awesome
You could name them north and south!! So cute and snowy
Please read this: In grade 4 I was obsessed with spiders (still am) and we were on a bathroom break. I walked into the bathroom and all my friends were telling me there was a huge spider in the bathroom. I still am not sure if it was a brown recluse or a huntsman. so I did what came natural to me. I picked it up. Keep in mind, this spider was half as big as my hand. I walked out and it jumped off. A teacher was freaking out about it and smashed him. His spirit still lives in those halls.
