Arrived safe and sound, and well packaged. Nice big size for the price (unlike other places that exaggerate the size). He(?) was keen to eat and had made himself an awesome web construction under the piece of bark in his enclosure by the next day. Has settled in nicely and a good eater! Love him(?) – thank you!!
