[QUOTE="itzjustjeff, post: 183543, member: 6097"] I have 3 sphodros right now. two of which are males and one is female. The males are doing great and are active hunters. The female on the other hand...I think I may have raised her wrong. When she was in her second instar, I tried putting in a housefly to see if she'd be able to catch it; however, after striking for it and missing or not being able to grab it with enough strenth, my female sphodro decided to run away from it instead, with gusto. I mean she literally started jumping off walls and running faster than I ever knew she could. Now, she is L4. I tried feeding her a TINY dubia maybe 1/4 of her size and the moment she failed to grasp it she started running again. This time, the top of the deli cup was open and she ran straight up and right into the glass of my exo-terra. It was pretty loud for such a small insect. Has anyone experienced something like this? I didn't even think they had the capability to remember anything! I'm currently back to feeding her FFs to boost her ego? Sounds silly...but at least she's eating this way [/QUOTE]
