Poecilotheria Enclosure Adults

In accordance to the topic, I made a new Poecilotheria Arboreal cage, with vertical sliding front and a lot of retreats.

Might be keeping subfusca communal in it or just one ornata, which I'm housing right now in a smaller version.

The cube itself measures 50cm h x 30cm d x 20cm w. The holes in the bark are big enough to put an adult woman's hand in.

To my knowledge its a suitable habitat for arboreals which like many, dark retreats and lots of stuff to climb onto. On the sides are large holow peek holes. Will try to build future enclosures maintaining this cage standards. Hopefully improving it by much each step of the way.

Pics, here goes:

front (lid closed):


left side, rather large voyeur hole:


right side, a "floating" peeking hole:


In total, there are four funnels, two are floating in mid air, two go from top to bottom. Moss has been glue to the barks as well as fixed to each other for added support. The bark is exclusively corck bark to reduce rotting wood and fungie.

Nice looking enclosure.

I guess the female P. ornata liked it too, she has webbed up a cosy littly burrow in the longest and most vertical tube.
