There is no water dish in that enclosure, something I definitely do not recommend, infact I would advise against it. Always have a water dish for Avics.

They’re pretty high humidity beasts, yes?

Nope you don't want it that humid, that enclosure is now updated with a water dish, and it's kept on dry substrate.
@Ratmosphere has a great thread on care for these guys I will try and find it for you.

Caribena versicolor: How to create an enclosure for slings.

Before I start, I need to say that this is the method that works best for me when keeping half inch slings. I see so many new people on this thread ask "How do I set up an enclosure for a Caribena versicolor sling?" Hopefully this will help. What you will need: A drill, a 1/16" drill bit, clear...

I’m literally thinking about buying an A. Jurensis M2 sling right now lol

When I rehouse my Parahybana what’s the best substrate to n use? I’m going to add sphagnum moss and lead litter but I’m curious about what you use? I’m currently using exoterra terrarium soil bricks that you have to mix. When I mix them I mix them a little on the drier side too, and they’ve been slowly drying out throughout the terrarium and I don’t see any signs of mold

I only use cocofibre. If it's a burrower I will mix some top soil in with it to make it a bit more rigid that's it.

Go with the setup @Ratmosphere has provided and you can't go wrong.

There is a shop that works with Canadian breeders here in Edmonton, and they actually sell sling starter kits, you get a little 2x2x4, a little bit of sub, some moss, a little piece of cork and a little plant for starting arboreal slings for less than 20. So roughly 90$ gets me my sling and my setup. It’s 1/4-1/2”

You will still be able to do a similar thing with the set-up you're buying.
