What enclosure next for H. Mac sling?

[betademascenone]

Hi all,

I have an H.Mac sling who I haven't seen in a couple of months. Last I saw him he was about 1.5 inches, but I haven't seen him since because he never leaves his burrow (of course). Hes currently in a small Tarantula Cribs 3 inch cube with the canopy extension lid. The space is smaller for him than I'd like it to be, but I'm not sure what enclosure would be best to rehouse him into next? Since he'll burrow for quite some time longer, what do you all recommend? He is my first arboreal sling (not my first sling, I have 40ish T's in total, although he is my only old world), I have two pink toes who are both juveniles/sub adults that are already fully arboreal.

Thanks for your inputs

Get an arboreal setup, that gives it room to burrow, and use some cork bark tubes or half tubes vertically. I used half tubes with mine with the hope I could check on its health. Not possible with a tube.

It’s a secretive species even as an adult, so give it plenty of coverage, not just a tube and a box of dirt.

No problem. Never seen someone with a SN for a cyclic monoterpene ketone!

Yep I knew it was chemistry or biochem, and had a feeling the source was a flower, but wasn't sure there.
