The first burrows


Since the last blog, both spiderlings have been settling in well. For the Tiger Rump, perhaps too well! It is very pleasing to see it eating well, it has had 4 crickets since arrival a week ago yesterday (!) and has made a really good burrow, which goes quite far down. In fact today, we found that it had actually burried itself alive and we cannot see the entrance to the burrow! We tried to find it but we didn't want to hurt it, so it's just going to be left to it's own business for now! And hope it surfaces soon...

Red Knee (photo on the right) is great, he's just been sitting on his substrate all day long, and, as you can see, has finally burried himself into the corner of the pot! I'm hoping he is going to shed soon, as I tried another cricket today and he just wasn't interested.
