most terrestrial tarantulas will burrow to some extent whether its just a little indent under a piece of bark or a full blown burrow like a colbalt.

So just to make sure, what is the best size if any for an adult Red Knee & Red Leg:
9 x 6 x 7
12 x 7.5 x 8
14.5 x 8.5 x 10
14 x 8 x 6
18 x 12 x 6.5

Obviously being housed seperatley, just want to make sure everythings correct

Might go with the size up, 14.5 x 8.5 x 10.
But 18 x 12 x 6.5 sounds long & wide. Is 6.5" tall enough though?

id say 18x12 is more than enough personally I would go with the slightly smaller one thats a bit higher, then you can have a few inches of substrate
