[QUOTE="Poec54, post: 38877, member: 3524"] I've got 90 Avics (10 species) kept that way, sling to adult (with 2 females sitting on sacs). All have dry substrate, cross ventilation, and water bowls. This works in most situations. In a dry climate you may want a little more moisture, but for the vast majority of owners, dry substrate with a water bowl is the key to keeping Avics alive long term. I'm in Florida, we get 50-60" of rain annually, most of it over 4 months in the summer. The rains are usually in the afternoon as the heat builds up, and some days we'll get 2" or 3". At noon it's hot and sunny; midafternoon it gets dark, and rains heavily. By late afternoon/early evening it's hot and sunny again and the trees have dried out, even though there may still be puddles on the ground. That's what rains are usually like in the tropics, bright sunshine before and after. The sun is more intense the closer you get to the equator and it dries things faster after rains. [/QUOTE]
