Not rambling at all! I love to hear this species getting some love. They are unique tarantulas both physically and behaviorally. Love the burrowing and webbing, and the feeding response is excellent. As slings, mine would literally climb to the tops of their burrows and wait when I opened their enclosures to feed them. I had to be extra careful to avoid potential escapes. Now as adults, they are even more frisky, often trying to run out with little warning. I agree, a bit of extra space between the sub and the top of the enclosure is a great idea.
