So I had my first escapee last night while feeding and maintaining their cages , my p.cambridgei saw the opportunity and made a run for it after about two hours of trying different stragegies their was only one thing left to do....


I took out the whole section where we hoped he was stuck and luckily we found him safe & sound

fast little buggers they are.... good to hear the T is safe and sound back in its cage... good luck with the cupboard though

This thread can go into "Why I love tarantulas"

Awesome man! :laugh:

Glad you found him!

I had my first escapee last night as well. Woke up this morning and the lid (which is way too light and not secure) was shifted and my B smithi was gone.

Thankfully he hadn't gone far and was right behind the enclosure. Now I just need to head off and get materials to make better lids.

Thank goodness you found your Smithi. that would be a very sad loss...
