B. Albopolisom is a true buldozer!

[bookac]

I know this is a common thing for B. Albo, but when you experience it at your own eyes, its so cute, that looks like she/he has some personality, and want some privacy [emoji14].
He/she fromt the start of putting her in the enclousure started to dig substrate and put it infront of her entrance. I just removed the substrate from the entrance, so I can see her just once, and the next morning she double the size of the blocade I love her/him and I will never again try to rearange the enclousure without his permision

Only had mine about a week and I'm entranced with the little thing. It's managed to completely excavate an entire corner of the enclosure and rests down there. It's perfect as I have a clear view. It still rearranges things continuously. I could cheerfully have several of these slings. Not to mention it loves to eat lol

I'm going to have to keep a sling around all the time I'm going to miss it's antics when it's grown. I don't see how anyone could watch one of these little ones for a day and still not like spiders!

You're so right . They're still lovable when they stop burrowing though, just that cuddly, bad hair day look and they're so placid. Mind I do miss the constant digging.

Looks like she/he is going to be inside his hide forever So much substrate at the entrance

Don't worry you'll soon be able to see it's antics below ground, all 3 of mine burrowed to the sides so I could see them.

I got mine as a sexed female freebie at about two inches. She's never even attempted to burrow or build a wall She eats very well, but otherwise strolls around or sits there looking pretty. She completely ignores me. And she never even attempted to use the hide I gave her, so I took it out after a few months. I can touch her rear leg lightly and she won't even move, half the time. She reminds me of royalty or something. Awesome spiders. To me, if a spider could be described as a perfect beginner species, this is it. But I'm the kind that still loves the "beginner Ts" like roseas and curlys and A avics. I think I'll always be partial to them.They don't get old to me, as I move on to new obsessions, like Pamphos or dwarf species.. I don't think they ever will. I'd never consider trading them or selling them. As far as cuteness goes though, the baby and juvie avics have everyone beat, hands down And that creepy avic walk, throwing those front legs around, is still fascinating to me during the rare times I handle mine. It makes me smile every time.

When do they stop borrowing? mine is 2cm, but it thinks its searching for diamonds in his cage.

At around 1-1.5" although my smallest still has a small burrow that it will dart into if disturbed.

 

[JC1]

At first i thought the T was mad at me... hahaha.... it build a wall in front of the burrow, going deep! i really thought she was mad at me for giving her the glass cage.

 

[Chubbs]

B.albopilosum are regular bulldozers and even adults will often burrow.

 

[bookac]

Stupid question, but should i be worried about her getting stuck in the corner while trying to climb out from there ?

Because i can move the hide a little bit so the space can open..

No need bookac, she can get out of that easily. I had a juvie avic squeeze through a hole barely larger then a dime once...not exaggerating. It's fine

 

[Enn49]

@bookac It may be an idea to move the hide away from the side a bit because if the T climbs and falls it could hurt itself. Ts rarely get stuck though, they can dig themselves out of most situations.

Hmm.. theres not much a big height, but if you said so, i will move it a bit.. so now you have worried me about my A. Geniculata.. because i have a big rock, that is close to the all edges, and there aint more space so i can move it, but i think she is big enough and i should not be worried about her..

 

[Chubbs]

Personally I would remove the rock but that's just me.
