First there was Bob Ross and "The Joy of Painting". Now it is Dave and "The Joy of Spiders". Similar relaxing vibe too.

Dave: "No spider in their right minds would leave the sanctuary of their home." Spider, clearly out of its right mind: "hold my roach."

Could listen to you all day Dave, love your passion! It's infectious!

I'm a recovering arachnophobe and about to get my first T (GBB). This video really boosted my confidence!

I love how you kept real. Filthy spiders, crapped all over the glass, had a poo fight and this girl had the trots. Lol I love the passion you have for your spiders. The fact that you don’t lecture on the care and husbandry aspect is refreshing. You always say it is how you do it, but not that what someone else does is wrong. I have been going over your videos again as I can’t sleep, you and camera lady Kelly have the best spider videos on KZfaq. I’m my opinion. Please please please don’t ever change how you film your videos it’s keeping it true to you both. Thanks for sharing your passion and knowledge.

Let's see if we can't get a roach out if him 🤣 what a good girl to come out whilst your spot cleaning and sit nice waiting for a snacko. 💙🕷

I would like to say thank you Dave and to Camera Lady for not just showing the importance of animal husbandry but also the Joy and happiness they bring to not just other people but to yourselves as well your both fantastic animal parents and all the Beasties you own are a credit to you

This man got balls just go in with his hands picking inside with those Horridas :P

Brilliant. I thought I'd just have a quick look at this video and of course ended up watching the whole thing.

very impressive collection, its brilliant how knowledgeable you are. first video ive seen of yours definitely a new subscriber! i own over 150 Ts and its great picking up small tips on how to make life easier in the T Room.

Hi Dave! Just discovered your channel a few days ago - so far, I'm LOVING it! Keep it up :)

Wow, I'm just as happy and impressed as Larry is!

Been a while since I've herd the term "the trots". Thanks for the laugh.

There is some great information here. Maintenance is some great keeping enclosure clean. You can tell if a spider is out and about even if you don't see them. Keep the great videos coming, love em

Thank you Dave and camera lady. Really an essential video as per husbandry of varied insects. Sooooo educational.❤️👍🏼

That blue spider you fed is absolut beauty Dave

This video is so important to show what kind of work and time it takes to keep your collection clean and viewable on a daily basis . We can't belive how much of our time is spent on making the enclosures and cleanliness of the glass so we can get the most enjoyment out of our collection as possible . We love your collection and how calm and collected you are with your animals . Keep up the amazing work !!!

From the start I came up with so much I wanted to praise you on or ask about but by the time the video was done, I’ve completely forgot everything I wanted to say. In the end all I can say is you are amazing! How you keep your spiders and the knowledge behind it all...I hope one day I can be like you. Thank you so much for sharing!

The love you have for your animals shines so brightly. It’s an amazing thing to watch. Thank you for being so good to these creatures ❤️

I’m really digging this like ur just cleaning enclosure’s and I’m vary entertained. Good amount of bug info too lik Damn.

I've gone from zero to loving spiders in just a few days thanks to your awesome and informative uploads, it's brilliant that it's interspersed with your insight into their behaviours and individual characters.... a new hooked subscriber, many thanks.... 🕷❤

Every enclosure looks amazing & something you’d see in the wild

This content is great

It's so cute when they attrack the water. My Giant white knee sling and my Goliath Pink Foot bot attack the water lol and my Xenethis Sp Bright attacks everything close.

Its amazing you have so many slings and can care for each they can be a bit overwhelming in large numbers.

LOVED the feeding!!!

I've never thought about caring for spiders, but watching this makes me wanna try. The passion Dave has is inspiring.

What a treat you gave us with this one dave. Absolutely brilliant 👏👌

Your magic is working. I actually look forward to watching more of your videos. Camerawoman, you’ve impressed me. ❤️

I really enjoyed this video. It was informative, humorous, and creative. Thanks again Team Dave & Beasties!

I’ve noticed an interesting phenomenon where I live in California. Most of the black widows have been replaced by brown widows. Not sure why but over the last few years, I rarely see a black one now. We have loads of widows tho. I love jumping spiders 🕷 PS don’t forget to close all the doors 😨

This is an amazing video and an ever more amazing collection Dave, keep up the good work and I look forward to your other content.

So cool

dave you and the camera lady are righteous animal lovers

“Be calm, be gentle and love your spiders”. ❤️❤️ Wonderful! Thank you from New York 👍

So amazing! I would love to have a small zoo in my house as well. Alas, I am no zookeeper, so I watch Dave's channel.

Awesome video

13:00 omg dave, she is sooooooo beautiful, I have never seen a spider or this type of species that look just like this with that type of writing on it and color, I am going to guess that she cost a lot of money as well but you should do some updates especially for this one I'm curious to see how they're living and doing now and if they got bigger thanks for another great video my friend... Cheers

I absolutely LOVE all of your videos. My dream is to own a T. Seladonia so I'm trying to learn all I can about them before getting one. In the short time that I've been a subscriber, I have learned so very much from you and I cannot thank you enough for sharing your knowledge.

Great channel and cool videos thank you for uploading!

A 41 minute video from Dave on a day In working afternoons and have spare time to watch in the morning?!! That's what I call a gift, and here I am commenting and I haven't even seen the bloody video yet 😂 Got me all excited !! 😁

You truly are a wealth of information. The tip about the poo on the glass in the tank with the eggsac is fantastic. When you explain it, it seems so obvious but not a lot of people would ever think of that. So glad i found your channel!

Very interesting with explanations. Love your methodical system.

Excellent video Dave. Loved it.

Very good content, I do enjoy the longer videos. As always thanks for sharing.

I love your videos Dave, you genuinely care for your animals. Dave’s Tarantula hotel!

Wow dude! you are a GrandMaster! Thank you for all the good info.

All those nice enclosures. Looks great

Hey uncle Dave! We love watching your video’s. The boys would want to get a new pet :)

Very cool stuff, keep up the good work Dave love your channel.

Thank you Dave and Camera Lady. I particularly loooove the Brazilian Jewel, such lovely colourings, sweet. So interesting today, thank you again, brilliant!😘💗💙

darn , you have a nice room ( i type a lot to get more ppl to see your work ) , love it

Hello! Just wanted to drop a few lines and tell you how much i truly enjoy all your videos!!! I have a huge fear of spiders but watching these videos has taught me a brand new appreciation for these little beasties!! I have always respected spiders just had a genuine fear of all those little legs lol But the more i watch, the more interested i have become.I sure wish i had the privilege of having you as a teacher years ago,then maybe my fear wouldnt have gotten so out of hand.Thanks again and i look forward to learning something new eveytime! Happy holidays!

I rewatched most of your videos- today I seen a juvenile white knee in PetSmart- poor thing was curled up, Idk it just broke my heart an of course had to come home an watch some videos on them cause maybe that should be my first tarantula - I don’t like to support stores like that but I hate for it to die Bc no one cares ! Anyway love your channel , it’s the best 🕷❤️

Springtails have helped stop my assassin stink mate

Hi from Canada Dave! Great video, subscribed! Love your calm and straight forward manner, as well as great husbandry.

I really love your setup WOW!!!!

absolutely love your channel, extremely impressed how professional your channel is yet have a low subscriber count, that will change come 2022!!

Very very interesting and informative. Thank you.

Really enjoyed that Dave .

This is great Dave thank you

Amazing videos. Thanks Dave !!

Hi! I'm just discovered your channel today. Amazing enclosures and setups! Just.. WoW! Incredible. Keep up your work!

Great collection, nice enclosures 👍

Just a headsup for those of you worried about using a razer on the glass, you can get plastic razer blades. They are designed for getting stickers off of yachts, so i'm sure a bit of spider poo shouldn't pose an issue.

I really hope your channel grows to the millions of subs, you deserve it.

Recently came across your channel. You are awesome!!! You have such a beautiful and happy family of 'beasties'

"I like to have a nice clear view of em, without looking through a pile o crap'. lol

You left one of the enclosures unlocked 😳

I have a decent collection of cute lil bitey bois and I adore them. It warms my heart to see someone who cares about their bootiful frens and treats them well.🥺 😤 Thank you for representing those of us who love and respect our creepy crawlies; they're so interesting and beautiful and CAN be cared for correctly with the right amounts of knowledge, respect, love and fear. Yes, fear. It's important to properly care for an animal and for risk reduction. Cockiness gets cutiepie 8 legged roommates killed and people harmed as well. Thank you again. 😇

Sir, you are a huge inspiration!

awesome video dave enjoyed every second of it, cheers

3 time i watch this , i just love how good you are with them , i never kill spiders , they keep @other crap@ out and they dont bother me :)

Love your videos Dave x👍🏼🕷

Beautiful collection!

I love the Brazilian jewel❤❤❤

What sets your channel aside from others, These are all educational, you always learn something new in every video ! Great video of the tarantulas, enclosures are always well kept & tarantulas always look amazing 🖤🕷🖤🕷🖤🕷

Dave what a fantastic video. Thank you for sharing some of your husbandry. It’s very interesting to see how we’ve been so focused on cross ventilation that we may have taken it too far the other direction. Very informative once again 💜💙

fab vid Dave top job

That looks good all those eco terras lined up on the shelves. Those assassin bugs creep me the hell out.they remind me of those kissing bugs. Eww. Just the thought of em puts a shiver down my spine.

Im a new subscriber. Love your channel, love your spiders!

BEST TARANTULA'S KZfaqR!!! I just discovered this vid today!! Awesome!! Thank you Dave

At 14:16 the first enclosure was left unlocked!

Happy as Larry

That's an amazing setup:)

Would love to see you do a feeding of the trapdoor!

Hello Dave I'm Sarah just found you today and I enjoying your channel so far. Hello camera lady your doing a fab Job and your brave too because I'd be shaking something awful 😄 I love seeing and learning about spiders but not the stage to have any .I do how ever have a tube spider living in a hole in the brickwork out side my back door she has been there for 3 years I call her Mrs Boris she is black and has the most beautiful iridescent green fangs .She hangs her four of legs out ever night . I have seen run out of her hole when she feel something on the hook lines she has spread out along the brick wall like a big star .she is huge but I think she is amazing. See you soon 😊

Great video Dave

I once had a tarantula that almost cuddled my fingers when I would put my hand in his tank to check on him, check his water or put a couple of crickets for him to hunt!

Awesome video dave really informative 🙌 picked up few tips myself 😂

Excellent info Dave can't wait for my sons birthday OBT to arrive

"Now bear in mind, No Spiders want to leave the sanctuary of there own home". "Now where is that Brasilian wondering Spider"? AAARRRRRGGGGG!!!!!!

I hope you have some sort of sponsorship bc that is a lot of tanks! Very interesting about the poo! When you were opening the doors of the tanks and then left one closed it reminded me of Vanna White unveiling the letters for a wheel of fortune puzzle. I totally appreciate your attention to detail and organization.

Hi Dave Love all of your videos. I do not have a spider, but really enjoy watching you with your collection. That one about the cleaning was so interesting. Animals are very intelligent, and reptiles. I know that spiders were intelligent, and I thought that they might have personalities. It was so nice to see that pretty come out, curiosity. To see what is going on. Do they all have a personality, or only some species? Cindy from Florida.🕷️🕸️♥️

Was linked to this video from a group on facebook, and I have to say I absolutely love your calmness. Tarantulas really pick up on the emotions of the keeper - they're so sensitive to airflow, temperature, tiny vibrations and such, and I've noticed when I'm nervous, they're nervous. The confidence you have when working with them is incredibly inspiring. As someone who loves naturalistic enclosures myself, I'd love to know what those long, stout enclosures you have are (the ones around the 22:00 minute mark). They look great for terrestrials.

Im affraid!!! Im affraid one day i will have as many inverts as you good sir. I started with 1. And in this hobby 1+1=11. I have 4 now.

Those black and yellow assassin bugs are ridiculously awesome. Thanks for the razor blade tip by the way. xD

I'd love to see a video on how you put together those terrariums. They look great.

Hi Dave, @ 14:43 ish you finished closing the tanks, but I believe you missed the first one, the handle is in a different position.

he was right. they are used to the routine. you clearly see the spiders co-exist. probably feel comfy.
