[QUOTE="Tarantulafeets, post: 213249, member: 36666"] Nothing really looks wrong with the enclosures, but the A seemanni needs deep, moist substrate near the bottom, can't really tell because there are no full shots of the enclosure. I would stop spraying, especially directly into their burrow, as this really disturbs them. You can just pour water down the sides to keep the bottom layer moist, but the G pulchra enclosure already looks pretty damp. As for feeding, it's fine if they don't immediately eat, especially when recently rehoused, as they just need some time to settle in. Or sometimes they just might not be hungry. You can try to feed it every other week or so, no need to try everyday. Remember, patience is important in this hobby ;) Welcome to the forum! [/QUOTE]
