[QUOTE="DustyD, post: 220181, member: 36911"] Arachnoclown has waaaaay more T experience than I do and probably most T owners, so hopefully he can add to or correct anything. I tend to keep my G. pulchra in dry environments. A water dish should be fine as they also get water from their food. Misting is not necessary although I do moisten one small area when I refill the water. Hard to tell from the pics if there is a hide, cork bark or something but sometimes, especially when young, they like to seek cover. But a terrestrial T hanging around on the sides, in my mind, means it is not “happy” or is uncertain with something on the ground. Usually for me it is when I rehouse them. I speculate that it may be too moist. Sometimes my T’s climb the wall to find a warmer spot. [/QUOTE]
