This works great with Avics, but you will probably run into problems with Pokies.
Generally, pokies tend to stay close to the ground and burrow as slings.

Hello
So far I've observed the following, two have gone down like you said but two have taken the high option. Will let you know in a few days of any changes,I expected them to all go down as you said or up as I hoped seems they're acting separated in choice.

Hello
Avic Versi colors are very beautiful,most people battle raising them from slings. I would suggest them to any arboreal lover,or someone who loves beautiful colors. Not even a little aggressive, very timid and sometimes skittish.
Give me more ideas so I can have a zoo already XD

Well he didn't web within 24 hours of the new enclosure, but it was somewhere around 36 hours as I woke up to a nicely started web :) When I initially got him, it took him almost a week to web up! Last night was his first meal since his molt last week, little guy must've been hungry cause he took down a pretty good sized cricket within a split second of me dropping it in there. Easily one of my favorite T's :)
