I had the spider out yesterday holding it to show some friends.
It did this overnight.  Not sure if it is telling me to leave it alone or what.
Is this a sign of an upcoming molt?  Is this it's way of saying it likes it's home?
I removed all of the crickets from the tank just in case.
I damaged the right side of the web trying to remove a cricket from inside the "burrow".
Before I damaged the right corner of the web there was no apparent way for the spider to get out.
Why would it wall itself in like that?





The part circled in the last picture is where I damaged the web enclosure trying to get the cricket to come out of the "burrow".
You can see the spider sitting just inside the web.
The spider has come out of the burrow since these pictures were taken.
It came out through the hole I made.
It is now acting normal again (just sitting there doing nothing).



The spider has done it again!!!
