Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sabeth" data-source="post: 21497" data-attributes="member: 545"><p>Is the web up near the lid? If it were me I would reconfigure the container so that you can keep it standing on its lid end; that way your avic will build her web up near the top (or what was originally the bottom of the container). You can remove the furnishings (keep these to a minimum to make it easier), turn the container over, and drop the food in. This is how I do it for my A. versicolor. Once she's grabbed the food and retreated back into her web, flip it back over and replace the lid, etc. Alternatively, you could kill the food first and use tweezers to poke it into the web.</p></blockquote><p></p>
