Message: <blockquote data-quote="Payden King" data-source="post: 36842" data-attributes="member: 3238">Thank you so much for the information!! I do plan on using a larger cricket keeper in hopes that she wont web the lid on. I think the bigger the attitude the funner they are to watch. I LOVE how they web too!! It's so awesome to see!! I have a feeling after having her, I'll never be able to NOT have one. I love the big feisty attitude. You're right... No more re-housings than what is necessary!! She'll go in the bigger one and hopefully she'll be in there a while before she needs something else. I do clean my tarantulas cages about once every 5-6 months. Sometimes more often depending size and species... How often do you clean the OBT? I worry about mold a lot because my room is in the basement. I normally just check everyday and if I see any I take that part of the dirt out with the tongs.Also, I know they seem to eat whatever falls in... Should they be fed more often? I want her to be as happy as is possible for an OBT haha. Or maybe I should say the least mad they can be.</blockquote>
