[QUOTE="Sabeth, post: 28498, member: 545"] The recommended cage dimensions according to [I]The Tarantula Keeper's Guide[/I] are that the width should be twice the T's leg span, and the length about twice the width. The reason Ts don't require a big cage is because in the wild, with the exception of mature males, they don't wander too far from their burrows. That isn't to say you couldn't go bigger---you definitely can, although you don't want babies getting "lost". [/QUOTE]
