Hey guys
So yesterday I picked up my new adult female B.vagans right after she finished molting. I already set up her new enclosure and I'm super exited to get her rehoused. The one she is in now is horrible , some of my slings have more floorspace then this poor girl. She barely has any substrate in the enclosure....and most of it is full of this disgusting white mold that almost looks like white powder. And there must be 4 or 5 dead roaches also covered in mold. I'm dying to rehouse her but she is quite skittish and I'm scared if she flicks her urticating hairs she will damage her abdomen. You can see she is still a bit sensitive but I feel this enclosure is a death trap. To be honest.... The only reason I bought the LP is because he was also in a tiny enclosure filled with dead insect , mold and almost no substrate. But I'm glad to have this gorgeous species in my collection. He's a bit feisty but soo beautiful. Anyway....is there maybe a way to get her out of the enclosure without disturbing her to much? Or should I just take the chance and get her in her new home?
