Hello
hahaha, since you were concerned about runaway T's...

When I feed the arboreals, I slide the bottom door up just a crack, and mist in distilled water to coat a wall for drinking, and then insert food. The lid is not open but a little. For the past two feedings, one of my P. regalis slings has ran out the cage door!! Same sling, too, its Boo, my little one.

The first time it happened, it hit the living room carpet and bolted as fast as its tiny legs could go. I jumped ahead of it and put the cage in front of her and she ran in. I resolved to open it less the next time.
So, even though I was being careful, she shot through the crack again! Landed in the cricket bin, and ran across it. Again I placed the cage in front of her, and she went in. Haha, little rascal. Gave me quite the scare!

I will be sneakier next time!
Enjoy your slings!

LOL! We haven't had any escapes yet *crossing my fingers* but the A. Seemani that we just bought gave the girl at the petstore a run for her money! It got out of the container twice before she could get a lid on it and went running across the counter. She was pretty cool about it considering she really didn't want to be messing with the Ts in the first place :D The owner of the store went looking for someone to get the T for us and everyone else hid or made themselves otherwise unavailable and this poor girl was the only one who didn't know what was going on. We told her boss she deserved a raise in pay!
