[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 137268, member: 26980"] I'd get a nicer enclosure for it. The pokie looks big enough to function in an adult enclosure. Generally, it's always a good idea to open the enclosure from the top, never the sides. They move very fast in a spiral type of pattern. Open it from the sides and your directly in the way. Go to a pet store and obtain an exoterra nano 8x8x12, or a Terra Blue professional 2 gallon. For faster ones especially one's first, an enclosure can make or break you. Consider that these aren't really mean spiders, but if you do get bit you're going to have to get a trip to the hospital. There may be similar ones that work the same way. Both of these can open from the top. The nano opens from both the top and side. With that, use only the top opening and lock both latches once it's fed. Your old enclosure can completely fit into the new ones, which will make the transfer easier. Remove the old one once the tarantula leaves. There's no rush on that. [/QUOTE]
