I got my Mexican red knee a few weeks ago but I rarely actually see it. In a rush to get its enclosure setup up I didn't really give much thought to its husbandry.
It's got very shallow substrate and I've stupidly given it a half coconut for a hide which has a very small entrance which it blocks off. This makes my tarantula very difficult to keep an eye on and check if it's alright and also difficult to feed with tongs. If the tarantula doesn't want it I've got to disturb it trying to retrieve its prey.
So I've now ordered something a bit more open so it can hide but I can still see and access it. Is it gonna stress my red knee out if I give its enclosure a revamp.
