[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 122878, member: 26980"] I was on Jamie's website and I worked up the nerve to get P striata. She has the enclosure, feeders, enclosure for the feeders (pinhead lats), caresheets for the feeders, everything except for the kitchen sink!! I already have a larger enclosure twice the size of the juvenile one from Jamie's that opens at the top, but it might be TOO large for a sling that is only 1"-1 1/2" in size. I'll make the final decision when I get everything. The Jamie's enclosure lifts up at a lower level but is closed at the top. Pokies run in circles so ??? The respective sizes are 4"x8"x8" versus 4"x4"x8" The size of the vial used to ship might be a factor, eg will it fit into the enclosure if necessary? I'm leaning toward the Jamie's one and will probably end up using because my M balfouri sling and my 2" spinifer scorpling just LOVE their terrestrial enclosures. Both have exactly zero stress in them and no problem catching feeders whatsoever. What clinched the deal was that Mike's basic tarantulas lists OW slings and P striata as a good starter pokie. [URL]http://www.mikebasictarantula.com/Handling-OW-tarantulas.html[/URL] Strangely enough, the listing for Striata has disappeared from her website even though it was up there for at least the past week. That means I may well have obtained the very last one!! I have very large plastic totes and a bathtub that I always use anytime I open up the Balfouri's enclosure. I've had zero escape attempts.
