Tarantula Mansion

I got bored one night and put his together for my wife's Rosehair. The pics do not do it justice and I need to clean the glass, but you get the idea. Turned out pretty good. I think that is the most time I have taken designing an enclosure for something with legs

Yeah, it is a bit big. Especially since she was in a 10 gallon before. But it works out well because at some point during the day she is always in that same spot because there is a heat pad under her. The indention works almost like a feed tote

Wow! Nice naturalistic setup Brian! See, now you need more T's to show off your talent in setting up!

I like natural setups, but then again, I like being able to see the animal too. It took a bit of trial and error.

awsome setup, but i would keep a bigger species of tarantula like a goliath, parahybana or bolivian blue leg in there instead of a tiny rosey lol



Thanks,
Ben

i think it was the Frozen/thawed part that he never heard of. It is a new one on me too. Heard rumors of people doing it, but never saw it before.
