Im about to get a C. versicolor so i made this enclosure. Do you think it needs more holes for cross ventilation, or should i leave like that?

I'm assuming it's going to be a spiderling? If so those vent holes look pretty big, make sure the carapace is bigger than the holes before you put it in.

I use a 5/16” drill bit for my Avics and similar when drilling into enclosures similar to that. A 2i versicolor can’t squeeze out.

The little guy came a little bit tinier than I expected, so I have this other 2 enclosures, which one you like the most?

I would use the slab of cork and add some leaves for webbing/hiding.

Thank you i'll do that, also do you think there's enough ventilation on the white cap bottle?
Here's a pic of it, with a little water dish.

If all of the dots on the clear plastic are holes, yes. (Sometimes it's hard to tell if they're holes or water drops.)

I usually put a few holes in the lid too to help the air circulate and to let me drip water onto webbing without removing the lid.

Yeah those are holes, i didn't mist the inside cause i dont want to get a stuffy interior i think i should be ok just having the water dish, also yes the lid has some holes in it to help with ventilation and watering.
i just hope it decides to make is hide on the cork bark and not on the lid.
