Hiya!
I recently acquired what I was told was a P. Metallica, and within a week it had molted (to its current size). This is my first arboreal T (I have 5 terrestrials) and I am not sure about the enclosure. I know that it needs height over floor space, so I bought a small 24oz soup container to rehouse it in (from a small salad/ deli cup thing). However, since it has been rehoused it has not moved from underneath one of the leaves that I put in there. So, my question being is this enclosure too big? and if it is, is the original container perfectly fine? Or, if the new container is ok, should I add something in there which it can hide under? (was planning on doing that but thought I'd ask). I have also included a picture of the original container for reference
Thanks!
(P.S. Sorry for the poor picture quality as was taken on my phone, and the USB was used as I had nothing else on hand to give a reference to the size of the enclosures)
