Repot

[CyanideOwl]

Do I repot her into this? It's 20x30cm 40cm h. Empty for now waiting either for holconia or Germani. Her name is Schizo.
I don't think she can stay here for longer but I don't have bigger enclosure. This one is the next on the line.

Think it could work.

The problems I have
Will she open the enclosure by herself?
Won't she disappear in it in a way? I usually hand feed or leave prekill.

Not sure about the escape question, but you could buy acrylic hasps to secure the doors better.

She most definitely will disappear, so keep that in mind.

Could keep the inside decor more in line with the size of the spider and see where it goes. Thing is she could decide to camp out in the top and stay awhile. Lol.

Maybe something like that? She seems to be digging a lot but it might be due to young age + no space. I can cut a taller cork bark but there is a lot of space and thick sub on the back. Also the duckie stays. It's my trademark. But I don't know if she will be arboring or terresting if u catch my drift.

That looks great! Don't forget a water dish.

I went out of my way to get taller cork bark. I got springtails, duckie, fake flowers. She has a lot of space behind the cork. I will just leave her in her box inside this terrarium and see if she gets out I guess? I will add water dish at the end when she is out. Am I the only one that always stresses over the bark being stable and not moving? I have seen YouTubers just throw it whatever my ass could never.

Very nice setup, proud of ya.

Nice! Lol, I have in the past worried about cork stability but usually it's fine. Believe your spood will like that space. Just my opinion but I think the arboreals do better with a bit of extra space and of course good cross ventilation.

Yes they need so much more space because the vertical is not enough, when they molt (at least all mine) lay down on the ground. Rarely do I see them make hammocks.

Tasty dubia. Feeding her was a problem in small enclosure. She was scared and always squeezed herself into the smallest hole. Once I thought she died because of the position she was in. But operation was a success. She didn't come during night but she did come out when I poked her. I was praying non stop since the fastest T is never fun to repot. But it's behind us now. The only problem will be feeding now probably. But Turks should be good for her since they don't dig or dig or dig like any other DIGGING food. (I just cry dubias and mealworms are so diggy.

She is still so tiny I have second thoughts about my decision. :c
