The woman, from Ohio, owns 111 tarantulas, and is currently incubating the baby spiders.
In the background she can be heard saying:"I know I'm sorry." The text on screen continues, saying:"Feels heavy and healthy. Little eggs with legs. Good sight. I'm shaking from happiness. Incubator time. Look at them, all healthy.", resembling popcorn kernels that have tiny translucent legs. The video, shared at the end of July, grabbed viewers' attentions, racking up more than 13 million views.
But people were alarmed that the babies were taken away from their mom, with Thekillmonger1011 saying:"If only spiders didn't evolve over millions of years to be able to take care of their babies significantly better than you. Oh wait."Saul Torres added:"Just because you can doesn't mean you should."
Rachellmvriee posted follow-up videos showing the mother was fine, while explaining why she put the eggs in an incubator. She explained:"I thought I'd give you guys a little fun fact. Tarantulas have so many babies because not every specimen is going to make it to be an adult. In the wild they will get a parasite, they will get eaten by a tarantula hawk, they will just die from exposure, everything. So not every single one is going to make it to be an adult.
"They have so many so that way they make sure at least a couple of them become adults. And reproduce. Even in captivity with the best care not every single specimen will make it to be an adult. You will have random deaths for seemingly no reason. That's just how it is."
