[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 47673, member: 3872"] Glad your little T arrived safe and sound, Amber :) I'm thinking about rehoming our little T out of the enclosure (2.25" x 2.25" x 4.25") we purchased for it. The T is a bit larger than a nickel. Our T has burrowed extensively and the burrows are starting to collapse in on themselves - not to mention the surface is covered in piles of dirt from the extensive digging it has been doing. I'm thinking about a 4.5" round, clear deli cup. I will perforate small holes around the rim and lid, and pack about 1.5" of moist substrate into it along with some moss, fake plantlets, cork bark and leaf litter. I'll also put in a bottle-cap water dish and flat feed dish - we're feeding killed/dying pinhead reds. Does that sound like "too big" of a home for a little burrower, and, is it too soon to move it? We received it exactly a week ago yesterday. [/QUOTE]
