My mf p.cam molted 21/09/2022 and was put in a new enclosure that was set up in the same way only now, she decided she’s a terrestrial T. I waited until she was eating again before doing this. I’ll take some before an after picture so you can see how it’s set up. Does anyone else have a P. Cam who acts like a terrestrial? I know they can be this way but up until now, I had never ever seen her on the ground. She does have more floor space and more privacy too, so maybe she feels safe down there. She has also been actively webbing on the ground, so maybe this is just how she starts her web?

One of my wifes cambridgei is often on the floor. It used to worry me when it was on the floor. But it's there so often, it does not any more.

Interesting. I had heard of them doing this, but I’d never seen Cami do it. It kinda caught me by surprise. I’m not being a helicopter keeper, but I am glancing inside the enclosure often to see what she’s up to. I suppose if she’s eating and webbing, everything must be ok?
