    Did it escape or is it burrowed?

    Either is possible. If you comb through the enclosure with no sign of it then it's gone.

    Cloud is burying the water dish (again) XD

    I use the condiment cups too. Cheap and easy, but very light if the water wicks out.

    Lasiodora parahybana care.

    They're pretty easy to care for. Make sure they stay hydrated and well fed. Watch out for the urticating setae.

    Cloud is burying the water dish (again) XD

    Mine will often move the dish if it gets too empty and then sit in the depression left in the substrate. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Bluey - my colbalt blue

    Be vigilant during rehousing. Give them depth, they burrow.

    Cloud is burying the water dish (again) XD

    There is no official data that I am aware of. They likely get caught up in the webbing and substrate as they are bulldozing around.

    I'd give it a bit larger enclosure.

    Should be okay. Just offer food now and then.

    2 of my tarantulas died in a similar way. Trying to find the cause to prevent more deaths

    You should keep half the substrate dampened for really young slings. They don't all seem to be smart enough to seek out the water dish.

    Tarantula care for my collection.

    For rehousing it's best to do so in the bathtub so if they bolt before you can secure them they have that additional layer of enclosure.

    Is my AF Scorpion fat or in premolt?

    For context I feed one prey item on average every 2 to 3 months and they are still a healthy weight. But I don't go by schedules I feed as abdomen size dictates.

    3 superworms a week is way too much.

    New young scorpion laying on side?

    It looks like it accidentally wedged itself in that position.

    Newbie here, probably worrying over nothing, but...

    Yes I can tell you have one of those exo terras. They're really suited for arboreals not heavy bodied terrestrials. You should change the enclosure when you can and repurpose your current one for an arboreal.

    There's a major fall risk in that enclosure.
