Happy shopping . I was going to wait until i get my new unit but i should go and support new shops ....

Not long, Maybe 3 hours a week spent feeding,spot cleaning, and spraying

I really don't know exactly when I got my first T. I'm pretty sure it was an OBT. but at least 15 years.

So you didnt go for a typical beginner species. Someone gave me a obt once it was psycho i called it kalibos it was proper nuts. I dont go in for aggresive spiders it was pretty tho. What are your favourites?

See I like the Ts with attitude.
King Baboons are probably my favorite. Salmon Pink, WhiteKnees, and Giant Red legs are up there, and I love the horned baboons. Blue Fangs aren't to shabby either .

Yes Im a white knees fan none of mine have ever been agressive i just enjoy watching them eating. Maybe i Will look for something different a species Ive never owned before at the weekend . I am still worried about my avic avics seeming thirsty tho

Double A's are tough as slings. Once you get em to 1.5" or so, they're nice and Hardy.
Any particular species you're thinking of ?

In honor of one of my female Cobalts coming out of her hole today, here's what my burrowers enclosures look like.
This particular Cobal is a little one (3.5") so I keep her in a smaller box than my King Baboons.
12x12x12 Substrate is 7" deep. I like to put some Cork Bark in the enclosure for the T to use as a hide until it gets comfortable and burrows down.

Her burrow is in there, for some reason you just can't really see it in the pic.

I'm a stickler for fiber. If it were my T I'd add another 10" of fiber.
I have a thread going entitled substrate levels. Check it out.

Thanks! Checking it out now!
