Hi all,
This may sound like a dumb question. I've had my little guy for 3 weeks now, and by now the enclosure 'floor' has a very thin coat of webbing on it like a little net. Is this going to bother the spider or the substrate, or anything in the 'environment'? Should I be maintaining this and returning the ground to it's 'soil' top surface? Or do they prefer it with the webbing? I know spiders are ok with the whole walking on web thing, but I just want to make sure it doesn't present a health risk to the spider being in captivity with this building up. I can see that when I put in a cricket, they are sure having a harder time getting around lol. So yea. Comments?
