Switching Terrarium ?

[rossko85]

So when it's time to switch terrariums, will I need to give my girl another 9-12 day acclimation period?!! Or will she be ok for a couple of days with all of her original husbandry she has from her other terrarium? I planned on mixing in her current substrate with new in the new enclosure. This is going to cut into her feeding schedule of course...I will still offer her food, but wondering if it's common for them to act like they would once you bring them home after a week or so? My girl eats on command at this point and hits every time! And this is after handling a bit too prior...she's well acclimated now. Just curious? I feel like she will still hit good feeding time, but I'm not going to handle her for a few days...I was planning like 4 or 5 days which runs into her feeding and then give her 2 more days and go from there...total of 6-8 days.

Any thoughts? Thanks a bunch!!

When changing anything in their environment, it is good to give them a little time to adjust. Since it isn't nearly as stressful as being shipped in a box overnight, or taking a long car ride, 5 days to acclimate should be fine.

If she is a good eater, the move shouldn't affect her much.
