C versi not even attempting to make a new home now.

Hey,

I made a thread a few weeks ago about my Versi making it's web on the enclosure door.

I was advised to just keep opening the door and it will just get the message eventually.

It has stopped making its web on the door, however now it just sits on its corkbark.

is this normal? still feeds and everything, just seemed unusual.

You can try putting more plants/anchor points in there, especially where you prefer it to make a web. But don't worry if it doesn't web up things right away.

Spiders do spider things. If it isn’t a death curl then you’re probably overthinking it (good advice 99% of the time)

I can't really add anymore clutter. There's not enough room in the enclosure to accommodate it and still have access for maintenance/feeding. also cant really put it in anything bigger due to the size of the sling

That's what I thought so I held off on making this post for a week or so.

It's pouting because you destroyed its favourite spot of course!
Jk. It's probably just reorienting itself. As long as its plump and feeding normally, I wouldn't worry

There is plenty of room in that enclosure for more clutter, like on the far side/top of rhe corn bark away from the water dish.

But I agree that the T is just reorienting. Having its webbing destroyed can sometimes be like being rehoused entirely, and it can take them awhile to start building again.

I got home last night and it made its web on the door again whilst I was at work xD

I guess he was rather P***** off with me, was giving it another cricket last night and he just leaped onto my hand from his cork bark and tried to make a run for it. spent about 20 minutes fighting with it to get it back in the enclosure, it would go into the tub on the right side, then run along the wall behind the plant, over the water dish and back out of the other side in no time.
