Avicularia Setup

[Chubbs]

Thank you. I put some more holes in it tonight. I hope it's ok... She has started to web her enclosure already. Do you think it is big enough? I ended up getting a larger avic then I thought I was going to get, lol. She was just so pretty I couldn't pass her up. <3

I'm thinking of getting an exo terra for her but I'm worried that they don't have any cross ventilation. Does anyone have experience using those with avics? Or do you think what she's in will be fine for awhile where she is? I want to do what's best for her.

Exo terras and other glass enclosures are suitable for most arboreals, but are not the most suitable for Avics IMO.

I have the crested gecko exxoterra set up. I recently took my regalis out of it and put her into a big cheese ball container. I really like the cheese ball containers..the exxoterra not so much. Poor ventilation, and those fine mesh screen tops are dangerous.

Hey Chubbs, I have my Avic in a similar setup as Laura S, but got a Amazon gift card and was thinking about purchasing a Exo 12X12X18. Your opinion?

Just read Mass Exodus post. Can the Ts feet get caught up in the screen?

Yes- my MM B Albo had to be re-homed he was constantly getting stuck and hanging from one leg. The risk is high

HA!! I am doing the same thing this weekend- taaking my Regalis out of the Exo terra and putting her into my cheese ball container! PS. I don't like the cheeses balls either

Stace, I think I'll just let her stay where she's at for now. I have her in a cheese ball container as well.

You can ship the cheese balls to me

I didn't even get a chance, Damn kids ate them up.

Lots of good ideas here for Avic enclosures. I have a versicolor sling on the way so I'm trying to do some homework.

I just threw in a nice cork bark piece and my Avid lives it. She's nailing crickets that make their way up to her.
