One of these is often a challenge for people just starting in the hobby, now imagine trying to rehouse 5 fast, potentially dangerous spiders at once. Even for more experienced keepers it is quite a challenge. Best to stick to keeping one spider per enclosure until you have enough experience.</p></blockquote><p></p>
