I am thinking about buying a neoholothele incei for my fifth tarantula. I have a GBB, lasiodora parahybana, Lasiodorides striatus and a T. Albopilosum. The picture below Is the enclosure I am thinking of using. The sling will be 1 inch is this a good size? What would you reccomend for more ventilation? 1582313959984969421574849031910.jpg 15823139794265479365586166606317.jpg

It could use more...but its not too bad.

Just keep the sub damp and the food coming...theyre a very hungry, fast growing species....that cup will be webbed to the brim eventually.

I would give it more floor space if you have something bigger, but as @cold blood stated, it will work.

Great speicies. I like them alot! They webbs alot and are overall great! I kept them on moist substrate with lots of clutter, leafs and stuff. As said a very fun tarantula but little shy and skittish. The ones i have had was

I have a deli cup that is a bit taller should I use that? It does not have much more floor space but it is taller. do they burrow at all?

I also have a few critter keepers and a large enclosure that I was going to use when it reached adulthood. I'm a little nervous to use critter keepers because I have heard that tarantulas can sometimes escape through the air holes.

For a 1" sling your deli cup has plenty if room for now.

KKs shouldnt be used for ts much under 2".

N Incei are awesome!! For me so far, it has been one of the easier T's to keep and it eats everything I throw in. I wanted the gold form but they only had the regular when I bought mine. This is what I have mine in and it's a little over an 1" DLS now, it just molted last week.
