Would one of these be good for anything? Would this be good for feeders? Like roaches or crickets? Husband is trying to be helpful and sent pics. I cannot for the life of me see keeping a tarantula in one because of it only having the mesh screen at the top. But maybe a feeder group? A bit pricy I guess? Opinions?

I’d say buy a sterilite tub for roaches/crickets/even tarantulas and save the money for more tarantulas

Like the way you think! M balfouri and C versicolor, here we come!

You could possibly use the enclosure for a small fossorial if you modded the lid but I wouldn't use it for anything else as there's no cross ventilation.

Are M balfouri kinda fossorial? Still... that lid (cringe).

I think it'd be better suited to something like an I. mira or Ephebopus.

Gotcha. We're only planning on the C versicolor and M balfouri in the next year, so this thing is a no go. Thank you for all of the advice. However, now my husband wants to research those species. LOL!!!

That is too much money for feeders, not even necessary. You need a basic plastic container, be it a KK or something from Target etc

Nixed. I let my husband know it's useless to us, and he's okay with it. Thank you all!
