[QUOTE="Phil, post: 118895, member: 4151"] OK so what you have there is a Brachypelma boheimi (Mexican blood leg is a commin term often used). You have a good size enclosure but I would recommend losing all stones and gravel and as [USER=8911]@Shampain[/USER] has already said, a cork shelter and some coco fibre/spider life mix would be a lot better. Stones and gravel are usually a no no cos if your T falls, it could damage the spider and if the abdomen is ruptured, that is usually game over I am afraid. Aim for 4 inches of substrate (at least) if you can. Lovely looking spider btw. [/QUOTE]
