I have read so many different care sheets and read alot of others experience but I keep getting mixed answers. DO OBT's burrow alot, are they fossorial, are they arboreal or semi-arboreal? It seems everybody has a different answer.
They are terrestrial!!

I gave mine

Box
Bowl
Sub

She made her own burrow.

I found in my experience with OBTs they are Fossorial/Terrestrial.
Digging more as slings then adults.
Slings and adults are both Heavy webbers.
I agree with others who posted that your set up can also influence which behavior it exhibits more of.

They are heavy-webbing fossorials, provide deep substrate for burrowing and anchor points outside the hide/burrow entrance for webbing.

Ok, I changed the setup and I love it. Lots of anchor points for webbing, enough substrate for some burrowing all in a cozy corner(I will add a water dish)
