The glass looks good....but not very practical,also lacking user friendlyness,and ventilation....wich is critical with most slings

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Doesn't appear to be much ventilation and getting them out of their enclosures safely is going to be pretty difficult when it comes time to rehouse them.

OBT's like it dry btw.

Thanks for the comments guys:)


Nice T's, but I would get rid of those glass enclosures.
Whats wrong with glass. I don't find anything wrong with Glass?? It looks good. Its pretty good with temperature too. U can observe your t's better and make sure they are doing ok

Don't worry they got plenty of ventilation, had to squirt some water on one side of the container cause it was already bone dry. It looked wet cause its new substrate. No worries

And yeah thanks for the tip ill ease up on them slowly as the get older, but right now they are slings in premolt. They need some humidity and warmth, till they grow up.

As for getting them out is no problem for me i have some pretty good techniques plus im very calm when i comes to Ts. Gettin bit is just part of the hobby. Still haven't got tagged yet though. lol Rehousing will not be a problem.

Thks for you concern;)


Keep the comments coming. Peace~

Very cute slings! I think their enclosures look great... just keep an eye out and make sure the air is being circulated enough on a regular basis :)

Cute little slings! Grats on getting them.. OBT's generally end up orange. We used to call our little slings 'killer cheeto's'! ;P

Sweet. I heard OBTs make very nice webs and tunnels. Your's certainly look like plump, happy spiders.
