    Nice! :spid0r: You're the king of the unboxing vids! I'm still working my nerves up to getting a T - not quite there, yet, but definitely interested. What do you think of keeping these so far?

    Hah, that little camera gathered dust until I started getting into reptiles and inverts :D I really like it. I'm already planning really cool terrariums once they get big enough. I love my snakes but these are much more display type animals with a WOW factor. Sure, I see my snakes everyday, between 10PM and 2AM guaranteed but no one else does. I want to be able to drop in a cricket or roach and have people go... WOW! So I think these will accomplish that once they've grown a bit.

    you're killing me here. I just bought a female yellowbelly bp instead of my g. pulchripes that I've been planning, and your unboxing video just made me all kinds of jealous.

    best of luck. hope to have my own to share soon.

    I would think 5 or 10 gallon but perhaps Jeff or Alexa will chime in. I'm pretty sure they keep the species.

    You could do a 2.5 gallon, but that might be a but much. I have my mature female in a large KK and it suits her just fine.

    Great video ,and great little additions Brian! I'm jealous of your pulchra, I may need to get one soon :P

    Zach, the green bottle blue is an awesome species to boot. I don't keep them personally, but I really love them. Great colours and really hardy and they web up the enclosure and make it look epic. I'm sure for an older one a ten gallon would be fine, but you can definitely manage a smaller enclosure. 10 gal may be a bit big. At the bare minimum the tarantula's enclosure should be about 3 times it's legspan in length, 2 times it's legspan in width and one legspan high. For the GBB you can offer 1.5 times their legspan in height because they like to web up kind of high, but most ground dwellers are better kept with only one legspan of height.

    wooohooo for more t's S.Man!!!!

    and Zach ive been told a 5gal is perfect for a mature gbb 10 gallons ive also been told would probably be overkill but im sure it wouldnt matter if you decorate it nicely,filling up space and such.

    wth Vs post wasnt there a min ago.oh well everyone got the info they were after.

    That is a really nice breaking stick used to seperate dogs. Primarily used for pitbulls but also works great for hunting terriers. I've owned both but currently have a Patterdale Terrier :)

    good video as always, you need to invest in a razor blade to open those boxes though XD
