[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 174065, member: 3872"] I've been really impressed with the webbing P. pulcher has created, it's literally like scaffolding on a construction site that runs halfway around the enclosure. It started with a burrow from the corkbark's edge along the side of the enclosure up to the lid and it created a dirt hide on the left side, see below, that I have never actually seen it use. On the right side it has constructed a web-platform that runs counterclockwise from the burrow about a third of the way around to the end of the foliage. Inside the platform it has built at least 2 web partition walls, almost like alcoves. It has like 4 places it can retreat to and it uses all of them! This sling is super skittish and teleports to it's burrow, and then spastically doesn't know where to go when I open its enclosure. We have both come to an agreement that when I open, it remains still, so maintenance and feeding is kinda easy - I just don't remove the lid completely. [ATTACH]46503[/ATTACH][ATTACH]46504[/ATTACH] I fed it a medium cricket last night for the first time (usually just roaches) and it literally jumped across the web-platform to nail it. I was not ready to video that but it was spectacular! [/QUOTE]
