[QUOTE="Seekeroftruth, post: 182279, member: 33210"] Bottom open enclosures make it more of a hassle to feed slings. The chance of them bolting up or messing up its web a bit when opening is not enough to justify using a bottom open enclosure in my experience. If they bolt, they run in sprints and they aren't so fast as to be hard to catch. They will fix their webbing and its no problem to them. Versicolor will sometimes web uneaten food to leaves, which may be difficult for you to retrieve from a bottom open enclosure. Feeders will be able to escape from a bottom open enclosure if you aren't quick enough. Deli cups work much better and they are cheaper. That said, a lot of people use that specific enclosure you linked and like it. The only way to know if you will like it is by trying it. [/QUOTE]
