Your really digging the aesthetic side huh?About how big is that jar? I found these on amazon and they have a 1.5" diameter, and are 1.375" tall. About the same?
Haha not even. They were the first ones that came up when I searched for "plastic jars" on amazon. And since they're plastic, I'll be able to heat up a needle and poke some holes.You're really digging the aesthetic side huh?
If you can shoot holes through the side and top then you're set.
Cool, try it out, I like Miss Moxies methods though and mine of course too lol... Are the lids for those containers legit?Haha not even.

Yep, too big and they won't be able to find the prey. Too small and they're cramped. Let us know what you come up with when you get a more firm idea! I'm sure there's more than one person who'd love to help.Cool, try it out, I like Miss Moxies methods though and mine of course too lol... Are the lids for those containers legit?

The factors you are looking at is an enclosure not too large that the T has a hard time finding prey and establishing a home.. Then you want it to spend as much time comfortably as possible for the T in that enclosure, and you need proper ventilation. Whatever meets those standards is fine.
I do not use deli cups, though I will when I have more slings. At the moment I've only got 3 terrestrial slings under an inch.
I use a container like this, found at Hobby Lobby in the painting aisle if you've got any around you and like it. More expensive, but I like the look and the screw on lid. The specimen in there is a big too big but that's before I learned my 'keep multiple sized enclosures ready for unpacking' because I thought that T was going to be smaller than it was.
And all my slings 1.5"+ go into small plastic shoebox enclosures. No pics of that.
They don't get lost in the wild, so your statement isn't accurate at all.Hopefully around an inch. Any smaller and I'll have to set up a tiny cage until s/he's big enough that s/he won't get lost.
100% agree!! and even if some do find it too big [i have a ~1" in a 3inX5in thats 4in tall] and he is always at his water dish 4" away from buttow and finds mauled food that is all the way over by the dish. [you can always drop in burrow if your that paranoid tho]They don't get lost in the wild, so your statement isn't accurate at all.
