Not going to lie, I didnt know cyriopagopus lividus were so fast when theyre young.

After 1 hour of this little baby running around out on the floor, behind the tv and finally into their new enclosure...

HERE THEY ARE!

Enjoy your new home Bluey.

That's why I always do my rehouses of little ones inside a large tub so I have an extra line of defence with escapees, Suddenly coming up against what to them is a brick wall seems to stop them in their tracks usually allowing time to drop a catch cup over them.
I'm glad you caught him though, I'm sure he'll love his new home.

I had a tub in a tub in a tub but because im quite slow compared to C.L I couldnt catch cup in time, me and my partner were just praying they wouldnt go under the bed or in the washing basket

100% though next time we try to rehouse we will get better precautions because id hate for them to get lost / hurt.

Hopefully that shouldnt be for a while now.

Thank you so much, I recently saw them at the Invertibrates show in Barnsley and fell in love with their coffin cages and these ones are perfect for me + little Blue.

I have an 18 inch long coffin, that my daughter keeps a Brachypelma sp tortuguero in. Its the only enclosure I have a skull in & it looks very nice.
