[QUOTE="Tortoise Tom, post: 133715, member: 27883"] I wanna see how many times you can tap your finger on an OBT web until you get tagged!!! Kidding. One of the funnest things for me is feeding my tarantulas. It may not be the most original thing, but I enjoy watching people's feeding videos. Some commentary is okay, but for some YouTubers, I just mute it. I also enjoy "How-To" videos and rehousing videos. One thing that has been very beneficial to me is watching videos of re-housing and learning some generalities about how each species behaves and moves. The aforementioned OBT video is one example. I got to see how they threaten and slap, and then I got to see just how quickly they can close a short gap and get in a bite. That was good to see on YouTube instead having my own new OBT demonstrate on my own finger. I didn't realize how jerky and spastic N. chromatus could be until I saw it on YT, and after having seen it, I'm better equipped and prepared to manage mine. Same with P. irminia. Just seeing all of them moved from one enclosure to the next and how people move them has taught me a lot. In short, I wanna see videos of your tarantulas eating, walking, moving, doing their thing, breeding, and being re-housed. I'm an eager student of all things tarantula. I'd like to see whatever you want to teach me. How do you do things? What tools do you use? What substrate and supplies do you typically use? How can I be a better tarantula keeper? What sizes and types of enclosures do you prefer for the different sizes of tarantulas and why? I also don't usually like 20 minute videos. Sometimes a title will interest me, and then I see that its a 15 or 20 minute video. Well the title given is not a 20 minute subject, so I usually skip those. "OBT Bite" 22:43. No thank you. A video with that title shouldn't be more than 2 minutes. I'd rather you did several 3-4 minute videos and stay on the topic in the title, than combine 5 subjects into one long video.
