I don't know what he's building, he just seems to be shoveling out the front bit. I think he's trying to reenact The Great Escape, as he's also occasionally trying to move the vent with his fangs...Unfortunately he has to be his own lookout<img src="http://i.imgur.com/cG5NTEm.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Shifting the soil (and very likely dumping it in his water dish <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite4" alt=":mad:" title="Mad    :mad:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":mad:" />)<img src="http://i.imgur.com/jowTIlf.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Unfortunately blurry, but you can just make out his fang sticking through the vent<img src="http://i.imgur.com/RhJK14G.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Maybe it moves if I push it<img src="http://i.imgur.com/Vk00VgD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> What if I pull it<img src="http://i.imgur.com/RHukgwV.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> This little guy is turning into one of my most entertaining spiders. He's such a character. Changing his water is always fun, because he tries to grab the tongs and pull them towards him. The other night I tried to distract him with a wax worm, so I could clean out his water dish, but he still went for the tweezers carrying the worm in his mouth, lol. <img src="http://www.tarantulaforum.com/images/tarantulasmiley.jpg"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":T:" title="Tarantula Smiley    :T:" data-shortname=":T:" /></blockquote>
