So I have a P. irminia that I got as a .5" sling and it has grown to about 2.5-3 inches pretty quickly. Thinking about rehousing it to something bigger but not sure if I should wait. Seems quite comfy in its silk and dirt tube but undoubtedly it is getting a bit small for it. At what point do you all usually move to a bigger enclosure with this species, specifically from a 32 oz deli sort of enclosure?

That is about the size I move at as well. Though you could likely get another molt in that one if you needed to.

Most definitely move it up to a larger container. Having raised irminia many times over at that size a 2 gallon tank would be perfect. Now some other options I have used in the past are plastic gallon drink containers, and sterilites that are taller then wider.
