I am also very nervous but it is something I wanted to try, and if successful it will be beyond awesome.

I just wish that all 5 will come out once a day so that I can do a head count.

Best of luck with it UC. Have you at least got a small waterbowl in there seeing as you're going to keep it bone dry? From what I've read and logic would dictate, they do get dew on their island (probably every morning).

At the moment the slings are still small so I am very scared to introduce a water dish. The peat is still drying out very slowly so there is still humidity in the enclosure. As soos as they are a tad bigger then I will surely introduce a water dish. Is that fine like that?

I would put a water bowl in with pebbles big enough to protrude above the water level. Never had a sling drown, yet........
