Hey tarantula friends,

Today’s post is a short update covering a few things that have been happening recently:

  • A new article that just went live
  • The launch of the Nocturnal Fangs YouTube channel
  • And yes, I am getting new animals

New Article Online

I decided to expand the Health and Emergencies section with a new article: My Tarantula Escaped! What to Do and How to Prevent It. Anyone who has been in the hobby long enough has probably had at least one small slip up that resulted in a tarantula escape. It happens, even to experienced keepers.

In this article, I explain why escapes usually occur, what to do when you suddenly find yourself staring at an empty enclosure, and how to prevent the same situation from happening again in the future. If you have ever experienced an escape, or want to avoid one altogether, this article is for you.

I Am on YouTube

I have officially started the Nocturnal Fangs YouTube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/@nocturnalfangs_com

I will be posting regular videos covering a mix of topics, including DIY projects, everyday keeper life, and educational content related to tarantula care and husbandry. If you are interested in seeing things in motion rather than just reading about them, feel free to check it out and follow along.

New Animals Are Coming

I am also quite excited that temperatures are finally rising again and shipping is becoming possible. Shortly before Christmas, I placed an order for a few tarantulas, and they will soon be arriving.

Here is what I will be adding to the collection:

  • Bumba horrida (female)
  • Megaphobema robustum (female)
  • Pamphobeteus sp. mascara (unsexed)
  • Chaetopelma olivaceum (unsexed)

Naturally, you will see the unboxing and first impressions on the YouTube channel.

Stay curious, keep it simple, and let your spiders be spiders.

Welcome to Nocturnal Fangs

Hi, thanks for stopping by! I have just launched Nocturnal Fangs, a site dedicated to practical tips, DIY instructions and essential knowledge for tarantula keeping. It is aimed at current keepers as well as anyone curious about entering the hobby. Who knows, maybe I can convince you. My motivation for creating Nocturnal Fangs is simple. Over the years I have heard and read the same questions again and again, so I wanted to build a reliable place that brings all those answers together. The vision behind this project is to develop a clear, beginner-friendly resource for practical tarantula care while growing a supportive community around it. During the first months you will find only a handful of articles, but the site will grow continuously. You can look forward to content such as: and regular blog posts covering many more practical and interesting topics. As I am always learning new facts …
