im planning to get an avic.versicolor and a p.regalis soon...i already have read their caresheets and some say that versicolors are not that easy to take care of, they would require excellent ventilation, my nagsabi din na maselan nga daw ang versi ..can anybody care to give me some tips or things i should be careful of..slings ang kukunin ko baka mga 2cm to 3cm..nagprepare na ako ng container na madaming butas talaga...thanks..

the only way to see if you're ready to have those species is to get one... =) Im sure naman nagresearch ka na.. good ventilation sa itaas ng enclosure + water dish sa ilalim should be fine, although minsan pag nagweweb sila eh umaabot sa waterdish kaya nagiging over moist yung enclosure kaya wag mo masyadong damihan tubig..

Good luck on the A.versicolor! It's a very beautiful specie. Be very careful with the P.regalis though, even if you don't handle them. Pokies are very fast and they have potent venom.

Good decision on your part to get a juvenile female and to avoid handling your Ts.

Madaming avics ngayon sa market. Hanap-hanap lang.

Tips when buying slings - check if the sling already ate. It will have a good chance of survival. Also, magpaturo ka sa mga suppliers mo. They should help/guide you through.
