[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 218011, member: 3458"] There has long been discussion as to whether OBTs are terrestrial or arboreal or just semi-arboreal. My first OBT came to me as a juvie and began her home at the bottom of a 12x12x18" ExoTerra and gradually built her web tunnel upwards to a platform at the top where she displayed herself regularly. 2 days ago I rehoused my current OBT RCF juvie into an 8x8x10" arboreal container and guess what it began with a small doorway at the bottom but then changed its mind and moved to the top of the wood and has built itself a web cave. So in answer to the question I will definitely say given the right conditions they choose to be arboreal. Front [ATTACH type="full"]68181[/ATTACH] Back [ATTACH type="full"]68182[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
