[QUOTE="Tarantulateeth, post: 215636, member: 38902"] Hello everyone My gorgeous little G. pulchra arrived today, and what a beauty! They're white small, between 2-3cm atm. I've got them in what I suppose is a small deli dish, with plenty ventilation holes, and plenty substrate for burrowing (if they want to) I've a tiny tiny water bowl that is ridiculously shallow (so it doesn't drown itself, but open to removing and misting as required if necessary---- according to the website I got it, it's 6mm deep) and I popped in some moss just to make it look pretty/give it something to hide under. It's not bothered to burrow or hide, and seems happy out in the open. Should I invest in something like some bark? For it to hide under? Is it maybe just a bit dazed from travel? I actually also ended up with a T. verdezi too! Which is smaller! I'd say 1-2cm. This little one is in the same set up ---i just misted instead of the water dish as this little one is quite ....little. Anyway, this wee fella has burrowed almost immediately! Will it be happy enough with its burrow or again should I look at some bark? Or is there anything else other's like to use for lightweight/safe for their tarantulas to hide in/under that is small enough for a deli dish? (Length 10.5cm x Width 8.3cm x Depth 5cm) Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
