Dealing with 7 Orange Baboon Tarantulas (OBT) !!!
Introduction
Welcome, fellow arachnid enthusiasts! Today, we embark on a thrilling journey as we delve into the world of the notorious Orange Baboon Tarantulas, commonly known as OBTs. At Exotics Lair, we love sharing our passion for these eight-legged wonders, and in this video, we take you along as we rehouse not just one, not two, but seven OBTs into larger deli cups. The adventure is not just about relocation; it’s about understanding these fascinating creatures. So, hold onto your hats, folks, and let’s get started!
Let’s Get Rehousing!
- Preparation is Key: First things first, we gather our supplies – deli cups, substrate, catch cups, tongs, and of course, nerves of steel.
- Approaching the OBTs: As we carefully approach each of the irritable tarantulas, we can’t help but marvel at their vibrant orange hues that hint at their fiery temperament.
The Dance of Transfer
- Gentle Persuasion: Coaxing the OBTs out of their cozy corners into the catch cups requires a delicate touch and a lot of patience.
- Into the New Digs: With shaky hands and bated breath, we make the final transfer into the spacious new deli cup, ensuring their comfort and security.
Life Lessons from the OBTs
- Resilience in Adversity: Despite their notorious reputation, OBTs teach us resilience – they adapt and thrive in even the harshest conditions.
- The Beauty of Solitude: These solitary creatures remind us of the importance of introspection and self-reliance.
