[QUOTE="Charlotte1, post: 184857, member: 34675"] Thank you so much for taking the time to post, all the input helps! We're probably going to transfer her to a smaller plastic container but I'm kind of freaked about the whole thing. Personally, this is a huge challenge to me, working with spiders, and I have 7 kids so I've got 3 little girls tied to my legs all the time and my son (who's T it is) needs supervision for everything. What was I thinking to let him do this? It's fascinating though and I'm getting attached. We've kept tons of bugs over the years and I've long since surrendered my last tupperware containers...There's 3 in his room right now with an assortment of critters. I sent my oldest son with him to get the stuff for the T and they just did whatever the pet store told them....It's my son's money so I'm not freaking about that it's just he doesn't have anymore and hey, I've got a ton of kids so I'm always broke. I will be brave and go forward. We put sphagnum moss in there today, added more water along the sides and she has a plastic log that she's staying under. Her water dish is outside the log though, right next to it but I'm not sure if it should be under the log with her? We're going to research more about the right size container and how to keep a plastic container warm enough. Thanks so much for the help! [/QUOTE]
