Message: <blockquote data-quote="MassExodus" data-source="post: 57860" data-attributes="member: 4086"><p>I have two adult A avics that do not web at all, until they molt, and then they either ignore the web or destroy it. Avics are most comfortable on walls, and will leave a thin coating of web all across the walls of an enclosure. In South America, avics are found on house walls, under eaves, in trees and inside large rolled up leaves on the ground. They're basically like large house spiders..  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /> I've put cork slabs and tubes in Avic enclosures, and they weren't touched. I just put some fake plants for cover, which some web to, and some don't. They will use them for cover if spooked, then come right back out. They are very unique little arachnids. None of my other spiders act anything like them. I love how bold they are. Definitely the best genus of arboreals, in my opinion.</p></blockquote><p></p>
