The 2 Chilobrachys have gone into 12x10x10" terrariums and the Phormictopus into a 24x12x10".The Chilobrachys sp Blue Vietnam, Han, walked from old to new container without a hitch.[ATTACH=full]32759[/ATTACH]Chilobrachys sp Nong Ya Plong, Xian, made it even easier opting to allow me to move it on the cork bark.[ATTACH=full]32760[/ATTACH]Now came the fun one, the Phormictopus sp. full green, Guaba. I thought it was going to be easy as Guaba is usually on its cork bark and I thought just lift it out of old container into the new, but no, it had other ideas. it wanted to play with the tongs. Ok, so maybe a nudge with a brush would be enough, but no, that became a toy too, rearing up with legs waving then it turned round and began kicking hairs. Last resort big box, strip old container of water bowl, plant and cork bark so I could drop a catch cup over, success Guaba clambered into the cup and happily walked out into its new home.[ATTACH=full]32761[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]32762[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
