The word bolt means for ones T to run in any random direction really fast.UPD:
Does it look like suitable enclosure? I did many of holes everywhere and put a little cup on the dry ground.
If there any chance someone could describe to me meaning of the word "bolt/bolting"? There is no accurate translate on Russian.
Sad! Aren't their versicolors and Avics dying? Do they think they have a very short lifespan? Or that they're just too difficult to keep in captivity? :cry:

Sometimes. But mostly their versicolors survive. I don't know how. Maybe the reason is that they let the substrate to dry. They think that low humidity could affect the bright colors of the versicolor. Also, russian keepers really think that caribena is too difficult to keep, but they try again and again..
Hi! Thank you!Welcome to Arachnoboards
I had a question about that 'door' in its cup, how are you closing this after you finished feeding?
That's awesome! This way you only have to open it a tiny bit for feeding and watering, genius! I think I'm going to try something like this for my P.ornata sling, it's very skittish, racing through its cup if I so much as touch it.Hi! Thank you!
I took an extra photos for you.
Here is the whole enclosure:
View from above:
Here you can see both parts of the enclosure separately:
Opened enclosure:
Closed enclosure:
I did it cause I don't want to rip off the spider's web.
I'm glad that you liked it. Can't wait to hear about your experience.That's awesome! This way you only have to open it a tiny bit for feeding and watering, genius!

Thanks for the pictures and idea!
That is seriously one of the very dumbest things I have ever heard.....baffling that people would actually believe this. Its like saying washing a dog too often will dull its colors....lol.
This was once common worldwide and was the direct result of improper care being spread as the right care. For decades this [high humidity] belief cost the lives of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands of Avic related species, even leading to the (incorrect) term of SADS or sudden avic death syndrome. People followed what they believed were the right conditions and when the results went wrong, keepers, assuming they were doing things correctly, believed these deaths to be completely random and unexplained....but they weren't, they were just being kept all wrong. The ones not dying were actually just getting lucky.
I am absolutely agree with you. Unfortunately, this is not the only dumb thing that you can read there.That is seriously one of the very dumbest things I have ever heard.....baffling that people would actually believe this. Its like saying washing a dog too often will dull its colors....lol.
I've read about that. Sadly fact: it is hard to change people's mind, when they believe in something with their whole soul. P.S. I don't know, do you use such phrases in eng language or not, but in Russia it is a common phrase.
what phrase are you referring to?
"believe in something with their whole soul"
