[QUOTE="GarField000, post: 227197, member: 30890"] It's a large enclosure, i hope the spider is not very small? Instead the what you have now on the bottom some substrate where she can dig in would be better. It also holds humidity better. Althought you can't do that without removing her and if she is molting that's not a smart thing yet :). So wait with that a bit. Arboreal spiders like to hide. She can't hide in the tree's so she might do that under the trees. I always use rounded corkbark for them to go inside so they feel save. Or half rounded and put it to the backside so they can choose. I also put some spagnem moss in it. If they want to create a dirt curtain they can use the moss and the dirt for building that. In your enclosure with that woodstuff she can't do that. [ATTACH]72020[/ATTACH] This one made the left tree it's home even the right tube has more room. (this is a smaller encosure for my juvi, 8x8x12). I must say for avic it's hard for me to see when they molt. Because off the long hair and they don't get a fat ass like brachy. [/QUOTE]
