This is footage I shot a few minutes ago of my mature G. rosea.  It spun thick webbing across the bottom of its hiding place, climbed in as if it were a sleeping bag, and is now dangling out of it, upside down.  What is it doing?!?

He's making a sperm web and is now primed up for some serious breeding!

Aha!  That's what I was thinking, but I didn't know what it would look like.  Does it put sperm onto this bedding?  If so, for what?

Peter, you better find him a g/f fast.

BTW, I liked the way you described it. Pretty funny...I can just see you standing next to his enclosure and scratching you head.
