Can anybody help me with the care sheet, I've got a 2-3 cm sling in a abdoral set up but it seems to be making a burrow and staying in it alot of the time. I've put enough substrate in it for her to do that , she also feeds quite a lot?

H Himalayana is a fossorial species so an arboreal set up is no good for it so that needs to be changed, as long as there is plenty of sub and a water dish it will be fine -
Our female is in a 32oz tall deli cup which she has dug right down to the bottom.. She did have a hide but buried that and her water dish.. She likes her sub slightly damp and she to is a good feeder :)

Yes there is plenty of substrate but she loves to climb on the Cork bark aswell
