[QUOTE="Tomoran, post: 57481, member: 1152"] Not bent out of shape at all! I'm just trying to make you aware of some potential issues with using that enclosure. There is a very good chance that if you use it, it will work for you. There just tend to be a lot of posts about dead Avics, so they're a genus I try to be a bit more diligent with. There are also a lot of care sheets out there talking about high humidity requirements for these species, and many attribute the "Sudden Avic Death Syndrome" to keepers trying to keep the humidity up. Those who have success with them don't worry about the humidity anymore and supply a water dish and cross ventilation. I actually used to use the Exo Terra nanos for a few of my guys, but they have some design issues that make them less than ideal for some species. I have a tall with a large gap around the door, so I really can't use it for smaller specimens. They definitely look great when all decorated, though... :) Whatever you decide, best of luck with the sling. They are a gorgeous species that are fantastic to watch grow! [/QUOTE]
