Possibly Chilobrachys dyscolus?

@EulersK I certainly hope not. But it does appear that way.

Awesome tips and tricks. Thanks for sharing.

These are great! I haven't made any myself since I don't currently have a dremel.. But I would totally love to do something like this for my arboreals.

I've used a few of Jamie's enclosures and I haven't had a problem out of them. I prefer deli cups, however there's nothing wrong with Jamie's enclosures.

@eproxymous Only 5 on your list and you didn't expect to get them quickly? Would've gotten them within the first month if I only had 5 on my list.

What are those blue handled enclosures you have there, sir?

Yes, that's my problem as well. I can't help but feel like I'm disturbing the slings while taking the lid off the top.

That's a negative ghost rider.

Yes, T's missing legs can grow them back with the next molt or so. If the T is active and acts fine, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. As far as the enclosure goes, it is quite big and spoiling a T with a nice big enclosure can actually make it difficult for them to find food. Just...

I'm glad you're inspired! That's what I find the most fun. Creating the enclosures and seeing the tenants very happy!

No problem! This guy found a really cheap way to make awesome looking enclosures. Would be a shame for people not to see this! If you decide to go and pick some up to experiment with, be sure to post some updates! Good luck!

Yes, I'm sure it will be content in that enclosure for awhile. Now just sit back and let it web it all up!

These are great! Did you make these custom yourself?

Sounds good buddy! Make sure the super worm doesn't burrow into the substrate. Those little boogers can get sketchy sometimes! Good luck with your T. Very nice looking. Your enclosure looks like it should be fine. Just add some fake plants and some more cork bark and it'll be as happy as ever.

You should think about putting more anchor points down for this type of T. He/She is a prolific webber and will web that enclosure up in no time. Try putting some cork bark and or branches in there so it can use it for anchor points.

Is this your first T you've owned? If so, it's very exciting, isn't it :)? To answer your question, you should feed it 2-3 crickets a week. With your T being in the "juvie" stage, you can ease up on feeding it a lot. You can get away with feeding it larger prey once or twice a week.

Just now checking back on this, sorry for the late post. This looks great! How's it holding up so far? Does it have any tenants? :)

I've never seen this done before so unfortunately I can't offer much advice. This does sound interesting however so if you take the leap and do it, please post pictures and updates! Whether it works or not, I'm still interested in why it did or why it didn't work out. Good luck!
