About this Habitat

14 x 10 x 8 in Burrow Buddy Acrylic Enclosure, 5 mm for sale from Big Z's. See the product description for dimensions and included items.

The largest Burrow size we stock. Fourteen by ten of floor, eight inches deep, and just under five gallons of space.

Cut from 5 mm clear acrylic with a ventilated locking lid. The thicker wall is what keeps a box this wide square when you lift the lid off, where a 3 mm panel at fourteen inches flexes. Ventilation holes run the border of the lid and down the side panels.

Specifications

  • Dimensions: 14 x 10 x 8 in
  • Capacity: 1,120 cubic inches, about 4.8 US gallons
  • Material: 5 mm clear acrylic
  • Lid: ventilated locking lid
  • Orientation: horizontal, depth-first, built for burrowers

Compare both sizing lanes

Hobby-practice target

Outside-floor ceiling: about 4.7 in. For a ground tarantula this is DLS under Tarantula Cribs' published rule; for a ground scorpion it is total length under Big Z's low-provenance house rendering of repeated practice. Both compare a 3 × 2 floor. Fossorial tarantulas and scorpions still need species-specific substrate and headroom. Neither number is a proven minimum.

Veterinary-clinic guidance

No universal clinic capacity. Tree of Life Exotic Pet Medical Center publishes 4–8+ in of compactable substrate for burrowing tarantulas, plus terrestrial floor and height guidance. For scorpions, Exotic Pet Vets publishes 20 × 10 × 12 in with 4–6 in of substrate for one adult Emperor. That number is species-specific; this box is not an automatic adult scorpion match.

Not a verified fit: the product title states supplier outside dimensions. Walls, lips, openings and build tolerance reduce usable space. Measure the finished inside enclosure and leave margin; an exact-edge equality does not count as a fit.

Measured candidates at the listed sizes (verify inside fit):

  • Ivory Millipede (Chicobolus spinigerus), 4 to 5 in, at the 4 in end
  • Chocolate Desert Millipede (Orthoporus ornatus), 4 to 5 in
  • Texas Gold Millipede (Orthoporus ornatus), 4 to 4.5 in
  • Thai Silver Earth Tiger (Ornithoctonus costalis), 2 to 3 in juvenile

Looking after the acrylic

  • Wipe with a soft damp cloth. Acrylic scratches more easily than glass.
  • Skip abrasive pads and ammonia-based glass cleaners. Both haze the surface.
  • Keep it out of direct sun. Heat build-up is a risk to the animal before it is a risk to the box.

Enclosure only. Substrate, cork and water dish are not included. Check your species substrate depth and ventilation needs before you set it up.
