This is my first season breeding, the only thing I had in with my normal female and my male spider was a water bowl. The first time I put them together she got all swollen (building), the next time I placed him in there after she had shed they did the snake dance (lock). Again the only thing in the tub was newspaper on the bottom and a water bowl. Now I'm at the count down.. Personally this is just me but whether it's breeding or feeding, the only thing in the tub is the water bowl. Good luck
