One escaped T' and a long hot day

Well I was about to transfer a H. Gigas over to a new enclosure but ran out of substrates. So I put it in a sealed temporary tub while I went out to get more. Come back and it's gone... o.o

I literally pulled the entire place apart until I found it sitting in a corner looking a bit sorry for itself, if a T' could do that. Didn't put up a fuss as I scooped it up.

After pulling the room apart, I then had an excuse to spring clean.. Well, fun adventure.

Not quite an escape story but yesterday I we to feed my little baby a. diversipes and the live cricket scared him so bad he just started running laps around the rim of his enclosure. I kept waiting for him to stop or jump out or hide but the little stinker just kept running. He must have done 6 laps. I kinda felt bad laughing at him.

I've had three out of 30 so I'm running at about 10%. I found two but one of the spiders still hasn't turned up :/

Though I contest the last one wasn't my fault :p
