Thanks for all the compliments on her, I too think she's a great example of a spider! She really glows along her back, hopefully one of these days I can get proper pictures of her to really show her off. :D
I have tried that tactic, but the minute I set her down, she's off to the races! Doesn't matter if it's mid day or night. I'll go days when I don't see her, but no matter what, the minute I get her out, she's gone. I guess shes one of those true explorers that just wants to check out everything.
