Avic m6 diy enlcosure

[yoboiboy]

Just wanna show case the enclosure that i made for my avic morph 6. i bought an acrylic shoebox (8*10*14), drilled some vents and added a thin layer of acrylic sheet in front to hold the subs, is it alright or bad?

It looks great, but how big is the spider? Even though you've added the dimensions, it's hard to visualize the scale when looking at the photo. But the dimensions seem like they would be for an adult spider. If that's the case, then I think it's a great setup. The only thing I would change is remove the leaf litter and any other clutter off the floor so feeders don't have a place to hide/die.

I have a Avic. Juruensis M2 that's one molt away from being a juvie, and I find it very helpful to have clean, tamped down substrate at ground level so I can keep track of the feeders I put in. My little one loves crickets, but crickets are quite good at hunkering down, and they will hide under anything they can once they realize they are in danger. It looks really nice to have a forest floor setup like yours, but sometimes it's best to go for what makes life easier for you and your spider rather than what looks good.

Other than that, I think it's a great-looking enclosure. You really went all-out with the cross ventilation, lol. I'm sure your girl will love her new home, but I would keep the floor clean for the reasons I mentioned above. I also set up my cork bark and decorations so that I can quickly scan for crickets with a small torch. It just makes life a lot easier when you don't have to worry about feeders getting lost and dying in the enclosure, which can attract mites and ants, among other pests. It also ensures that your girl doesn't miss any meals because feeders are hiding from her.

I'd have more foliage up top for an Avic, setup looks great for other arboreals though.

This is the sling enclosure I use now for these guys and it's coming along great. Everything is attached to the top including cork bark flat, the base only hase some substrate and a water dish.

I did that when she was still a sling

Thank you, i'll put that in consideration. Yes i did go all out in my vents, lol. Since it's always super hot here in my place and always high in humidity so i gotta let that air come out, i guess hahaha

She's a yay big now, around 4 inches.
Here's some photos of her in her new home.
