Thinking of trying a fossorial species. I understand they can be pet holes.
Is there a fossorial that is willing to pop out to capture prey dropped by their burrow? A quick pop up and back down would be delightful but if the only way to feed is leaving prey in overnight.. hmm...
Can a juvenile or adult stay in a permanent enclosure, with no rehousing/substrate changes? I notice some of you pretty much do this for terrestrials, I am asking this as it would make keeping those species much easier, especially if prone to being very defensive.
Good for beginner/intermediate hobbyist.
Confession time: almost impulse bought a H. lividium, maybe 5 yrs ago at a LPS. I had a local WC Aphonopelma for while many years ago, assumed Ts were pretty much all the same in care and temperament.. did not help it was probably a juvie female(gorgeous blue) and the shop employee was all sure, they are easy and were perfectly willing to sell it to me just like that.. Really glad I did not get it after all.
