Putting up a web huh, lol. You havent seen anything yet. Pre-molt or not your Avic is gonna web web web until you can barely see it at anytime. My little versi sling made such a huge funnel and webbed its entire cube to the point that I have to tear it to get the lid off. If your Avic doesnt web then I would worry. Good luck with it. They are very awesome T's. One of my favorites, well after Pokies.

Some advice for you

Welcome to the versicolor club! Nice choice - I've had mine for a little over a year now, and here's some advice

- keep humidity kinda high and provide lots of ventilation ...
- when you see what looks like little clusters of white dots or cocoons on the side of the enclosure, don't be concerned, it's versi-poop (lots of threads about that on this forum - I oughta know - I started one {D{D)
- be very careful when handling, if ever (I've learned through dumb experience NOT to handle my versi) - they are very fast, and are hard-wired from millennia of living in trees to make FLYING LEAPS when they feel the urge to commit "flight-not-fight" - and trying to find your little versi in God-knows-what corner of the house he's hiding is NOT fun ... that said, I've learned from reading this forum that many versi-keepers have had very good experiences with handling, and I'll stop there because I'm insanely jealous ;P (but consider yourself blessed if you end up being one of them :clap:)

-One parting shot (so to speak) - you ain't a member of the Versi-poop Club until you've been projectile-pooped by your versi (lots of threads about that on this forum, and forgive me for repeating myself, but I oughta know - I started one!)

ENJOY!!!
