[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 130166, member: 3458"] I've been dreading rehousing Lanka as it's one loopy T. At 3-3.5" dls Lanka is a nutcase, running in circles on the spot when disturbed. I decided to at least get it into a catch cup in the bath so I put the old container in a rub in the bath and began by sliding the cork bark out expecting her to run foe freedom. Lanka sat still, unbelievable, then she walked into the catch cup. Job done. Next job was to put the catch cup into the new ExoTerra and remove the lid. I just left the T to emerge on its own. !0 minutes later Lanka was out exploring. Job done, almost an anti-climax :rolleyes:. In the catch cup [ATTACH=full]29730[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]29731[/ATTACH] Lanka's new home [ATTACH=full]29733[/ATTACH] Exploring [ATTACH=full]29734[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
