I'm really not one to panic, or ascribe human behaviors and/or intelligence to spiders, but it really really seems as though my male L.P. is knowingly opening a hole in the lid of his cage with his fangs. Its a simple plastic kritter keeper, and he's broken a bunch of the plastic bars, all right next to each other, in one corner. I have two pictures (sorry for the quality but you should be able to see his shiny little fangs wrapped around one of the bars). I have a video too which would be way more evidence but I don't have any way to upload it at the moment. He's been at it for about a week off and on. He's a male but I don't think he's mature yet... he doesn't have hooks and hasn't made any sperm webs. Is this normal? Anyone know how to deal with this? He's got a hole big enough for him to stick one of his legs through, so for now, I'm gonna switch out the lid with an undamaged one, so at least he'll have to start all over.
