If i rehouse a T, could i then use it's old enclosure for a smaller T, when ready for a rehouse.
Seems a shame not to use a ready-made enclosure.

Hi
just be careful with plastic enclosures when washing as they scratch very easy and you can end up with more milky enclosure what you had before.
Only soft sponges and hot water. haha

PS you are not really aserious tarantula enthusiast if you dont have some boxes full with tubs ,deli cups etc laying around waiting for something to be housed in them lol
I couldn't agree more, there was some time when anything with a lid was fair game as an enclosure. My wife's Tupperware collection took a hit then it was me taking one when she found out :)

I wouldn't say I'm super serious, merely 4 Ts of 2 species, but even I have a spare enclosure, a bigger enclosure and spare decorations and gubbins around with substrate in the post!
