Hi Richard,
Do you have any videos on Ceratogyrus Meridionalis The Zimbabwe Grey Baboon? Be that a mini documentary like this, or a general husbandry video?
Love the channel
Thanks 😁😁
I admire how you not only film Tarantulas, but provide information about the science of tarantulas, their habitats, and conservation.
Thanks so much!
High end tarantula videos . Only this dude
Thanks so much, I wish more people felt the way you do! 🤣
Okay now that I've finished the video, I have to applaud you again 👏👏 . You wrote this so well and should be so proud of your work! I LOVED the line about the human and non-human protectors of the island. Great work! If you don't already call yourself a documentarian, well, I think you can add that title to your resume 👏
You're the best!
What a cool format, very enjoyable! I would have so much fun watching them scoot around that enclosure all day.
1:33 totally! It takes on a pure black hue in zero lighting - amazing 😂
Omg these videos are so heart warming ❤ thank you again
Incredible video 👏 LOVED the facts about the area!! 🙌 Fascinating information, I really enjoyed learning.
I really appreciate these documentary-style videos you've been doing more of. As always, the footage is incredible. It's clear and detailed and it's very apparent that one of your big interests is photography/videography.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Rich as a massive Balf fan this was nothing short of fantastic in every way, At presant I’m having a 2 year break from keeping Balfs due to Ill health but on the mend so hope to be back soon proberly not to the point of having 300 Adults in the same commune again, (But you never no) Keep up the fantastic work ,Drew( Balfouri Town)
Rock on, hope you recover soon! Thanks for the support.
Banger video, more like this please!
Hello great video information Richard
Recently, I got a balfouri. My partner called her pandora, definitely my favourite old world at the moment. Also wanted to say i think its great you give info on where they come from as well as facts about the tarantula. Great video!
That's awesome!
What a beauty!!
Love the balfouris! I have a single individual and a commune of 5. Really beautiful species and a pleasure to keep!
Just picked mine up today it's a 2.5" juvi I've kept many baboons do you have any tips
Love these guys, bought a pair a couple months ago and love them! Most handle-able old world (ik you shouldn’t 😂)
Legend!
Coolest video ever I learned so much too!
What gorgeous Ts these are it must have taken ages to make this vid and the other nature vids you do , amazing vid Richard.
Glad you enjoyed it
I really enjoy your informative take on tarantulas.
Glad you like them!
Hi Richard how are you doing today
Great video! And what a beautiful species!
Thank you very much!
These are one of my all time favorite Ts! At some point I'll work up the nerve to bring in an old world 😅
I always learn so much from your videos! Thanks!
So nice of you, thanks!
Always at the forefront of this hobby, keep up the great educational content. Looking forward to seeing the next video. Thanks !
I'm heading to Peru in a few weeks to get some footage of very rare tarantulas in nature that are not in the hobby!
@@tarantulacollective I’m very excited for you and going to live vicariously through your journey. It’s something I have always dreamed about and maybe one day I can fund myself to one of these trips.
These guys look so interesting!
Also enjoyed the style of this vid!
Glad you enjoyed!
These are absolute beauties! I would definitely consider adding these to my small collection. Thank you for making this video, Richard! I always learn so much in such a short time from your videos.
You are so welcome! I'm glad you find them entertaining and educational!
I like these videos, they are very pleasing. However, I would love to see more "casual" videos where you talk about a topic, do a top ten, unboxing, rehousing, expo, etc. I really like when it feels like we are there in the room with you and just hanging out while you do something tarantula related
I hear you. I have 406 videos on my channel. 19 videos are in a similar style to this video and only 10 videos are nature doc videos like this. So the wide majority of my content is exactly the type of video you are requesting. I have most of my content organized in playlists by the style of video. So if you are wanting some unboxing videos, expo tours, feeding videos, care videos, top 10 lists, etc....there is a playlist for each of them. With over 400 videos available right now, I am sure there is a lot of content you haven't had a chance to watch yet that would be right up your alley! Here is a link to the playlist page so you can check it out: www.youtube.com/@tarantulacollective/playlists
He has so many! This documentary style is rare for him...
Great video. Thanks
Glad you liked it!
Great content as always! m balfouri are quickly becoming one of my favorite species. 😎
Thanks so much for the support!
@@tarantulacollective thanks for the fantastic content! 🤘
She is beautiful and I want to protect her and her family from humans
why only 450 likes? this vid needs more!
I love these, they're like little bears ❤
I will buy a few if I see them at the reptile expo out here in Albany NY ..iv been learning more and more for about a year now and I think I'm ready
I love seeing the bebies
the gin huh i have herd of them
Great job 👏
thanks buddy
hi. i have a chance to buy this beauty, dilemma is buy 1 or 3-5? i grow GBB and Sazimai 🙃
hmm it seems a tame for a babbon genis
9:38 so they can fart per say i did not know This
I bought a tiny sling just over a year ago, seen it for the first time about 10 minutes ago and it's HUGE! absolute stunner too, wish it'd appear more often 😂
I actually have a question on the Balfouris. Is it alright to introduce multiple specimens to a commune when they are already adults, sub adults, or juveniles? Or is it strictly only specimens that were together from the beginning?
I'm not super experienced but I've read they need to have grown up together or else they'll be territorial.
Hi Richard you put me in a video because I'm trying to grow my account to show people my spiders so if you could feature me in a video that would be great ❤
First
Creepy
People don't collect any of her spices leave them in the wild get one captive breed she plays a important role if you want to see her and her family take pictures of them and stop cutting trees down where they live let us come together and protect them in the wild for the future
Who is traveling to Socotra to to collect a spider easily found in the US for $40-50 and Europe for $15-20? If those people do exist I highly doubt they are scrolling CZcams comments.
