[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 167044, member: 3872"] Swapped P. gigas enclosures today, used the same method I did for rehousing, with the sling in the lid of the enclosure I just moved the lid with the spider in it to the other enclosure. New enclosure has a Cholla wood "hollow stump" with a few plastic leaves attached embedded in the substrate with a bunch of sphagnum moss.in it to hold moisture. The bottom 1/4 of substrate is very damp with the top 3/4 a somewhat damp mix of Coco fiber and peat moss. I packed some sphagnum moss between the stump and side of the enclosure for good measure. I left the new housing in the micro climate for a few days to get up to ambient temp before swapping the T over. Here are a few pics of the enclosure before moving the T, one just after the move and just now with the sling exploring the base of the "stump" [ATTACH type="full"]44126[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]44127[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]44128[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]44129[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]44130[/ATTACH] Best look I've gotten since receiving the sling.
