Hello!

This is my first time keeping a tarantula. I have read a few conflicting things on the internet regarding the proper size for sling enclosures. I have attached a picture of my current setup for my Antilles Pink Toe. Total leg span is .50-.75 inches. The tarantula seems to be acclimating well and has webbed itself near the top. I am curious if this enclosure is too big for a small sling. I have really enjoyed reading the information on this forum and greatly appreciate any tips. Thank you!

The enclosure is 4.75 inches tall and 3.50 inches wide.

Too big

Put him in a small Thorton vial, or 16 Oz deli cup, or small AMAC box
