[QUOTE="Chubbs, post: 58741, member: 1084"] You might wanna check out the bag method then. I know rehousing certain species can be a bit unnerving, but it really shouldn't be that difficult in the end. I'm assuming you've worked with species like this before. I rehoused an S.calceatum 2 weeks ago, and as I was trying to coax her out of the old enclosure, she came flying out and actually jumped onto my bed. Fortunately I always keep an extra deli cup around for when I rehouse, so I was able to place it over her and from then on it went pretty smoothly. The key is simply to remain calm. If the spider bolts then just let it run, as they have to stop after a few seconds in between anyway. Don't try to slam the lid down really fast, that's how accidents happen. [/QUOTE]
