filling his water bowl with dirt

[MarkmD]

Today, I stood and watched my LP gather a wad of substrate, move to to the water-cap, and place the wad of dirt NEXT to it, with just enough touching the water that it would have began wicking.
Yeah I know, I doubt that was the spider's master-plan, but it sure LOOKED like she knew what she was doing.

Lol, they like to try and full us onto a false pretense then just keep doing what they do best, sometimes that's a wad of sub next to or in the water dish :-(

Every single one of my rosehairs flips their water dish out of the sub and usually brings it into their hide, or tries to. Mostly this is done right after I fill the dishes. Pain in the butts.

Depends on the species. When I do maintenance on mine several times a week, probably half the bowls have boluses or feces in, them, and most of the rest have some substrate in them or have been tipped over. There's not many that I can simply refill.
