I keep 100s of species of Tarantulas, scorpions and snakes in my basement and make YouTube videos about them. I love the unlovable and care for the feared.

If you still think tarantulas are just reflexes with fangs, this may change your mind. I just published a breakdown of a paper co-authored by Rick C. West on tarantula navigation and what it may tell us about spider cognition. Read it here: thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

“Wild-caught is always wrong” is easier to say than it is to defend. I just published an article looking at the ethics behind wild-caught tarantulas, including conservation, habitat destruction, captive breeding, and the part keepers play in all of it. thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Think tarantulas are a short-term commitment? Some of these species can be with you for 20, 25, even 30 years. Here are five of the longest-lived in the hobby. thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Are tarantulas actually happy in captivity? Probably not in the way people mean it, but that doesn't make the question stupid. I just published a new article on tarantula welfare, stress, security, and what good captive care should really aim for. thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Getting into tarantulas can be intimidating, especially with so much outdated and flat-out bad advice online. I put together a page on my website for new keepers to help make the learning curve a little easier and point people toward reliable information. thetarantulacollective.com/new-keepers

Spring is the season of renewal, and tarantulas may embody that idea more honestly than most people realize. Premolt is uncomfortable. Molting is exhausting. And what comes after is a vulnerable stage that can’t be rushed. New article: thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Why are people afraid of spiders while treating far riskier things like no big deal? My new article breaking down the psychology of spider fear, how bad media reinforces it, and why the reaction usually says more about us than it does about spiders. thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Feeding baby tarantulas and scorpions does not have to be complicated. I put together a simple guide breaking down how I approach feeding spiderlings and scorplings, what prey to use, and how to make sure they are actually eating. Read it here: thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…

Can tarantulas get stoned? I looked into the actual science behind the question, and the answer is a lot more interesting than the meme version. Also, no, this is not something anyone should be testing on their pet tarantula today. Psychedelic Earth Tiger thetarantulacollective.com/tarantula-thou…
