Extended threat display

[Synapze]

I walked in on one of my adult female H. orientalis yesterday and she was already in threat display with no activity in the room. She held the threat pose for about 6 hours straight. I only observed her from a distance other than snapping one photo as not to agitate her. 

Has anyone experienced this before? She's due to lay an ooth, but I have no idea if it has anything to do with the display.

niot me, is there maybe a spider in her cage? maybe we cant see what she does, and she feels threatened?

I've already checked her enclosure and found nothing. She displayed for another 2 hours or so then stopped. I have no clue. She's in good health... perhaps this was just a fluke. Thanks for responding.

@hibiscusmile She laid an ooth yesterday. She's acting normal again.
