Baboon Enclosure Setup

[hellknite]

It is my first time to have a baboon T. Particularly an Augacephalus junodi. I'm not yet familiar how to setup its enclosure. Any tips and suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I keep mine in arboreal enclosures filled 3/4 with peat. Gives them enough space to burrow and I can see them through the side usualy

I'm researching about baboons so I can prepare well for the setup. I'm expecting another addition by the end of the week, an OBT rcf.

P.murinus can either be setup in arboreal or terrestrial enclosures. I have all of mine terrestrial as that is how I have seen them live in the wild.

Ask if you have any questions regarding baboon spiders. I keep a few.

I heard from someone in the forum that you are very knowledgeable about baboons. Thanks in advance.

No problem.
Not on here very often as I'm fielding queries on a local spider facebook page while trying to work, but check here daily at least.

My A. junodi is getting bigger bow. She is still in a deli cup. I need to rehouse her soon. I have a terrestrial enclosure at the moment. Should I fill it the same amount of substrate like most of my new world T's?
Thanks.

This is probably the most natural way that you can keep them. If you keep them in terrestrial enclosures, they will probably just web a lot or huddle in a corner.
