C. Versi Sling Enclosure

[crazy8legz]

Hello,
So today I'm getting my first arboreal a Caribena sling the pet shop says it's like an inch and a half but I got a Pulchra sling from them that was smaller than advertised. I know no matter what I do with this species something can go wrong. I just wanted some opinions on my set up. Also is my set up at 6 x 6 x 9 possibly too big? If so I have a container almost half the size photos attached.

I don’t have one of these, but I do have other arboreal species. From my understanding they love lots of cross ventilation and are more prone to hanging out in the top of the container. That can make feeding from the top a little challenging. Im indifferent as far as container sizes go. So long as one can feed the spiders, either could work.

Some of the clever keepers here hot glued their decorations to the top part of the container so they can simple turn it upside down and drop the bug into the top portion of the container. Similar to the container you already decorated, but glued.

The gasjunkie also did a nice little write up on these boogers in particular. Most of what I regurgitated probably comes from it.

Well, it must be the covid because I couldn't stop myself and now there are these 4 new deli cup slings on my T shelf I'll let these guys acclimate before making proper introductions, but here are a few pics Thanks to @treynkarissa for a smooth transaction!

Hi
You will need holes in the lid too in both enclosure options.
Set them up both and deside when the sling gwts there and you see its actual size.
I kept my young C versicolor in 32oz deli pot till they reached 3 inch.Do not give them too much room as slings.
