Is everything okay with M. balfouri

[HairyPetRocks]

Hi, I rehoused my new juvi Monocentropus balfouri. It's been over two weeks when I put it to new enclosure. I found it like this, hanging on the top. I thought that is there something wrong like humidity/temperature if non-arboreal T behaves like this? Or is it just hungry. Sry about crappy photo.

Rehouses can cause this

Yes, normal it’s just getting settled in

If this happens again, don’t be suprised. They can do that during rehomings, especialy with new moist substrate.

My brachys did that when i got them.

It’s getting used to its new enclosure. Probably settle in within a few weeks.

Mine did the ceiling climbing for a week, and I noticed as she was climbing the walls and ceiling she was laying web everywhere in thin sheets.

Then after that she layed really thick sheets all over the cork barks, anchoring them to the walls and substrate, and then she dug a really big burrow.

I think they are just wanting to see what building options they have, I know if you have lots of them and a tall enough branch they will make a web castle.

Both my p murinus did that. I gave them more then ample height. And they webbed all the way to the top.

its beautiful. They have their little hides at the bottom. Its amazing work. I love webber.

This mikumi dcf was just hanging there. So fun to watch.
