[QUOTE="VaporRyder, post: 201491, member: 37475"] Yeah, when I got my first, I gave it plenty of substrate and no arboreal retreats. It made no attempt to burrow and climbed the enclosure, webbing up the entire top - well above the sub. My current one has a decent sized 45 degree cork bark tube that it has webbed up, leaving the rest of the enclosure web free. It has burrowed a bit at the bottom to give itself a ‘back door’. It is very happy, often sitting on the tube as if basking. :D Please excuse the mesh lid - I’ve personally not had any problems with them, but will be replacing / modifying ASAP for acrylic as a safety precaution.
