Hey guys. I have rehoused my P.irminia into it's new custom built aboreal enclosure. It's been 3 day now and it just sits in the back corner right above the substrate. I have noticed for the past few months it kinda likes being in the lower areas of the enclosure, very seldom up high. It also haven't molted in about a month and half. It's about 6 - 7cm in size now.

Is this normal behaviour, as my P.cambridgei is always climbing around everywhere?

"God said it, we believe it, that settles it!!!"

This is why we should never take anything as the final result and set fact, but always be open to possibilities...this is where the adventure of discovery and connection between reality and the fantasy world lie.~ "Henry Howard Jnr"...

Sounds pretty normal to me. Mine does the exact same thing.
I think they are more semi-arboreal than true arboreal like an avic.
I recently rehoused mine as well, similar size. Exact same behavior.

My 2 P cambridgei specimens (both are mature) hang out closer to the top of the enclosure, but I find them on the substrate regularly. Their nests are also on the substrate.

Exactly the same as SynergyZA on both sp.
