Hello! I'm new to the tarantula scene, to this forum, and to exotic pets in general. I'm not fully up to snuff on terrariums and terrarium decor yet.

With that said, does anyone know what this ceramic burrowing piece is called? I've tried googling to find the answer, to no avail. I've attached an image here, taken from this YouTube video (timestamped).

Thank you!

i would bust off the bottom of that thing since it doesnt allow the t to burrow and extend its hide

its a small, wall-mounted terra cotta pot, don't bother copying that, you want the spider to be able to burrow, not encase it from all sides, a half round of cork or bark is best

the picture is pretty wierd anyway, not sure what those boards are in there for...

Most my Ts don’t use hides anymore but I give them a while before removing it . One that still used it has a large Wendy’s cup with the end cut off. Cork is better I just couldn’t find it cheap enough.
