That looks so stressful. Good job :)
This reminds me of the time I had to move my curly hair tarantula he was fast and random, unlike my pink toe tarantula
I just got a sling 1/2 and shes super fast its hard to feed i was wondering if u cqn hwlp me
Micro Wilderness is the last place you want to get any Tarantula, unless you like to guess what you buy.
@@Ricantarantulaboss Just take you're time and make sure to keep a eye on where it is, my one is growing super quick, and I had to rehouse and it bolted and escaped luckily, I was prepared for it.
I love that normally you say "today we're going to be rehousing some tarantulas" and this time you said "we have to rehouse..."
That’s crazy! Exotics Lair just uploaded his OBT rehousing! It’s Christmas Day 😂
Just finished watching that, too. 😂😂😂
And they both went "wrong"😁😁
@@Mindporn right?!
I think this one was calmer then Exotics Lairs OBT
@@ladymiaeriksson5809 agreed 😂
My OBT is broken I think, it is the most timid thing, never shown a threat pose, never bolts, always just slowly and calmly retreats
Don't have an obt, but my h.mac and s.cal are like that too. If they had not a fierce reputation, I might get very careless.....
She’s just plotting calmly 🔥😂
Lucky 🤣 mine is crazy...she's %100 orange bitey thing lol
I heard that some OBTs are actually really calm. Same for the "docile" species being absolute nuts.
I mostly see my OBT from below, because the only mood she has is being bitchy
OBT: Orange beautiful thing... that’s right isn’t it? 😉
Ovarian Booby Trap
Nicely done...got a little dicey, but you rocked it!
I really appreciate how conscientious you are to the needs of your ever growing babies and the need to keep rehousing them to larger cribs. It’s disgusting when pets of any kind are kept in places too small for them. Your a sweetheart and a beautiful responsible spider mommy🕷💕
She looks pretty calm for an obt like the calmest I’ve ever seen, personally catch cup glued to a stick is a god send
"Dork Den" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yh I saw that to 😂 😂 😂 😂 xxxx
I'm proud of you. Also the dork den gave me a giggle.
My first obt rehouse went like this, along with my second lol they are so unpredictable! I have found if you give them a semi arboreal enclouse with along of floor space they won't be so aggravated when you open the enclosure!
Exoctics Lair rehoused his OBT. It was hilarious.😂🤣
Thank you and happy holidays 💖💖💖
I rehoused my bigger OBT yesterday (around 2cm) and holly hell was she a bolty little bugger and almost ran straight from the dubbel boxes into my apartment, but luckily we both eventually settled on her new enclosure being the better option xD hahaha
My Ceratogyrus darlingi was much easier to move, she just bit my straw once to see if it was edible but then followed its directional pushes quite nicely :D
Much love and respect from a little heathen in Sweden!

@@willowlambert4238 Sadly not, or atleast not at the moment😅
I'm planning on trying my hand out at shooting and editing this year (hopefully) but that will most likely be based around trying to do videos for my music.
But if I have the time over after I get a grip on the basics I might upload something with my animals since I have bunch of them and I always do feedings every week anyways🙂
"I'm the powerful one" lol how we all feel when we do something like this to our T's lol I died when you said that
I love when it comes to rehousing obt it mental and the aggressive behaviour u get it out of this world. I would say the minex is so mental to
Nice video. Thank you. It was just nice to see the respect you gave the OBT. Gives the right message to keepers
I'm now obsessed with watching these videos, all sorts of different animal care videos, etc and now I'm looking into different pets and already started collecting things for enclosures! thanks for inspiring me! You have a huge heart for all your little baby's and it's inspiring! :)
Another great video Kat..thanks for always being awesome.
You did AWESOME! SO proud of you, I want one so bad but so scared too 😆
You did great Kat. Thank you for your video.
im getting my first obts next week,i watch videos that will be helpful.Thank you for sharing :)
When an experienced Tarantula keeper rehouses a species like a person with arachnophobia, you know that species is problematic.
Yet, they are still kept because "Oooo, orange!"
I'm just glad people keep them because they make rehousing videos so much more exciting!
I laughed so hard when she went back in her old enclosure 😂 I’d be in tears by now if I were you 😂
As always, enjoyed the video Kat!
Yas kat yass ur the best i love your videos i excited everytime i get notified what i wait for all week and days.
Great video Kat! Nice smooth rehouses. I was laughing at the obt one 🤣 she is a little stunner 🤘🤘
Really love your videos ❤️
It went so smoothly!
Cooool good job!
That was awesome the las spider great funny had me lol with you beautiful spiders well done
That OBT rehousing was hilarious! 😂🕷️❤️
You got the job done. Great video.
I wouldn’t be able to stand that. I’d freak. You Handle stuff so well! Good job Kat!
Re housing!! My favorite !!❤❤🕸🕷
Its like I am not into tarantulas, but fascinated, and now glued to this channel. Awesome content and I can't believe I'm saying this, but awesome beasties too.
Kat your hilariously funny! Thank you for this ! X
One of my favorite types of tarantulas, love me some OBTs. Spicy yet beautiful
Your videos make me so happy.. Even hearing your hubby in the background. We also swear the same, 😜
Thanks again.
Great video and STL sock hat.
I really enjoyed that Kat , I do love my OBTs cool video👍👍👍👍👍❤️
I got my OBT after 2 months into Tarantula keeping. Before that I've done research and watch many vids about OBT. The first time I rehouse my OBT, it fled to my hand, quickly ran down the table and ended up underneath my bed 😅 it was basically a war. Thankfully I didn't get bitten. I housed her in a big enclosure now so I won't have to rehouse her ever again 😁
It was a 30minutes battle. Phew..
Good idea on big enclosure lol
Lmao "Dork Den"
Happy Thanksgiving Kat & family !!
happy thanksgiving !
That rehouse was awesome never seen one go that smoothly.
Yayyyyyy for Kat and Mr. Kat!!!!
I’m attempting to get over my arachnophobia and your videos are helping so much! I’ve been researching on getting a jumping spider and soon a nice beginner T, def not an obt 😬 and I see that they’re not necessarily what’s portrayed in media. I’ve seen a few stories like yours that have once feared them, but now love them 😌
my first OBT rehouse had me chasing it round my lounge...am super careful now, love your vids
I have two OBT's to re-home soon... This is helpful.
Ah Kat, this was great. Don’t feel bad, I made some of the same mistakes when I rehoused my first one. I’ve learned firstly what you did, don’t put their enclosure into the new one. Lmao. Just get them in a cup and transfer. Then, to give them a semi arboreal setup on top of the piles of dirt. They run and stop under cover and tend to calm down faster. Also, webbing turns into amazing designs too as a bonus. ;) keep up the good work.
I got an M balfouri from Micro Wilderness. I unboxed it without incident. However, a couple nights later, I turned on my light and it began running around the top of its enclosure at warp speed. So yep, those Old Worlds can be plenty fast.
I love this video! As much as I always talk about how much I love other T's, the OBT is honestly my favorite. I own more of them than any other T. The Tom Moran cupping is it best bet. I've rehoused so many of OBTs, more than any other species. I have crazy stories of trying to do EXACTLY what u just did. At least u learned and was like "don't do this like this". I've tried a handful of times, all with fails 😆. Cupping is so fast and so easy. U HAVE to put holes all in the cup though. OBTs will do what urs did at the end and eventually hunker down once in the cup. Without a ton of holes you'll be in the same position u were in in the video. Anyways, love the video. Ur amazing ♥️
That was exciting!! 😋
Hahaha I did have to laugh with the obt video. Just got my sling obt I am a beginner, here we go so excited to see the process. Thanks for all the info.
Oh goody... I love when you rehouse. She’s so beautiful. You did a great job.
Love u kat! I’m first! Haha Great job rehousing the OBT! I love how you decorate your enclosures
Youre my favorite tarantula vlogger. Hope to meet you soon! Your number fan here from the philippines! 😘
You handled that OBT pretty well. I am impressed. I could never tho :D
Omg yes Exotics Lair just had a CRAZY time rehousing his OBT LOL!!😂🕷🤦🏼♀️ it was crazy and by the looks of it you also had a crazy time lol 😂 Anyways I love you so much!!! 🖤🕸 I'm always so excited when you upload!! You are one of my favourite CZcamsrs ❤🖤❤🖤
I have found the same Bolton was with a UK house spider
lol cracking up at the nesting doll situation with the containers
I have my OBT sling in a larger enclosure that I originally bought for an adult jumping spider for this reason as well.
Nice STL beanie! I'm from STL ❣️ moved to California, just picked up some more T's from Micro Wilderness in person at a show! Good stuff.
That was the best I've ever seen one of those behave .They can change quick though lol
T. Kat:. I love your vids. You are definitely my favorite T keeper.keep up the good work.much love!!!♥️♥️♥️
Mam she was fast! I think you did great!
**My Tarantula senses are tingling
“Kat must have posted new video”
** Drops everything
That was fun 😁👍
Brava!!
Dude...for real...I have a $500+ order from microwilderness that should be here tuesday! Totally worth it, and Nate has been super helpful. 100% recommend!
Just rehouse my OBT about 30min ago. fun fun lol
I remember those days lol I don't have mine anymore but super scary when rehousing lol
hey kat :D i started watching after i got my first jumper :)) i love ur vids (i have a P.Johnsoni)
That is a beautiful T though, I'm prolly gonna end up with a couple of those lol. I think my craziest is one of my hapalopus slings
You know whats fun Kat? Being Australian and your first adult tarantula is an old world and of course I just had to get a selenothous kotzman. Look them up lol they have a bit of an attitude problem and as I quickly discovered can climb upside down on the lid and try to bite you through the air vent. She has kind of calmed down now a bit lol. Rehousing her was fun. I am just happy our T's don't kick hair.
My obt is set up more arboreal. Never had an issue rehousing her. She's pretty calm.
Getting my OBT today wish me luck 🍀
Wow i just rehoused my second largest OBT 2 days ago alone. It went super smooth though.
The cute and extremely fast orange bitey thing
I was stressed just watching lol good job
I literally lost my obt rehousing it the other day. The. Exact. Same. Way.
My OBT from micro wilderness 😹😹🥰🥰
I did find it a few mins later but dang did it bolt! 😹
I am terrified of all spiders but I love watching your vidoes
OBT
Orange Bitey Thing
Oh Beautiful Tarantula
😁
I lured mine out and used a tall delicup to trap her once she climbed up. You had kind of the right idea
2:14 where do you get your enclosures from? and what was the substrate you're using
I'm very Afraid of spiders but I enjoy watchin ur videos!
I have always had arachnophobia. I am working on getting that under control. This video just gave me SO much anxiety! But, guess what, I lived through it and watched the whole thing! :) I found you because I've recently become very interested in jumping spiders. Thinking they would be the cure for me :)
exotics lair had an obt rehouse and now kat does, is this a holiday i am missing?
Exotics lair just did his obt and that thing went nuts
Greeting from Philippines again mam. Its already 1:38 in the morning here. Midnight watch i love you're video mam♥️ keepsafe always and happy keeping and godbless ♥️
Haha this would be a good time for one of those "simply orange" oj container catch cups where they go right up into it and then you can screw the lid off the other side and let her out.
lol that was funny :D
when Im rehousing pterinochiluses or harpactiras etc basically all baboony spiders I always use a cup I wouldnt ever try to get one to walk between enclosures its too easy for them to run and not stop and they could end up anywhere. but for some reason tarantulas really like being in plastic cups so when you encourage one to walk into a cup it will almost always just sit there calmly while you move it. its usually way more difficult to get them outve the cup than in but you can just leave the cup in the new enclosure and get it later
Idk if you'll see this but I have a tip, I have a juvenile a. seemanni and she is unhinged, What I do is I get one of those flatter deli cups/bowls and put it on one side of the hide/burrow and use a really skinny paintbrush to maneuver it under the deli cup, then I Use the delicup lid and slide it under the cup and tarantula, After wars I put the delicup inside the enclosure, close the lid then use the airholes to let me use the paintbrush and open the deli cup, Idk if the holes on your enclosures are big enough for a really skinny paintbrush but I'm sure something can fit through them.
tldr:
1. Place a deli cup(flat one) at one end of the burrow/hide
2. Use a paintbrush to push the tarantula towards the delicup.
3. Slide the delicup lid under the tarantula and make sure the delicup doesn't snap close.
4. place the deli cup in the new enclosure.
5. Close the enclosure and use a thin paintbrush or stick to open the delicup through the holes.
6. push the tarantula into it's new hide so you can remove the delicup.
You may have said this already and apologies if I missed it. But do you sterilize soil, leaves wood pieces before using them?
omg haha i was laghugh so hard with that orange one also it is verry beautiful
Great content and once again spiders rule!
The joys of bolty t's. Well at least you managed to do it. I'm sure I'd been saying a fair few swear words too...🤣😂 Anyway nice seeing you on the live on Saturday...
Yeah you have to catch-cup them lol. This was hilarious 😂
So funny that you and Exotics Lair had OBT rehousing vids out on same day. Lol
This exact reason why I put my OBT in her permanent enclosure when she was 2”. I’m also so glad I did the same thing with my C. Marshalli. She is evil!! She runs at you stridulating jus for trying to open lid. It’s bad. Worse than my OBT!! My Darlingi is pretty chill.
Anyways, great rehousings. I’ve been wanting a G. Ihrengi and G. Actaeon. Your OBT is beautiful. Is she a RCF??
Take a plastic fork or spoon, and use heavy duty clear tape to attach it to a deep catch cup. Mine is a 1 liter water bottle from casey's, with the end cut off. Gives you the ability to move it without having to worry as much if the T ends up on the cup rather than in. Nice job though. You did the most important things: Kept her contained, kept her safe, got her in her new home. It's a definite win.
