Hi.
Is it possible to use a rather large,heavy "dug in" flower pot as an adequate hide for T.Stirmi without causing the Tarantula any undue stress from the lack of a burrow? My problem is that mine resides in a cavernous hole, under some cork bark, with 6 inches of substrate and basically I have a pet hole to look at. Most of the time I don't even have a hole to look at as she's a bugger for filling it in,waiting behind the earth, and snatching prey that strays too close in this way. This Tarantula of mine is a complete burrow potato,and pretty much a recluse (to be expected with a deep dark hole to lurk in)
I would sorely like to be able to view the spider for obvious reasons, but not if it will cause any harm
