Ive got one I feed once a week hanging out off the frt porch ,it wont build a web till he or she is hungry ,1/2 dollar size and getting bigger.Alot of june bugs hang out by the frt light and after I get one and toss it on the web it begins the job of wrapping it like a pillow.It took its time in snacking and seemed to play with its food with its frt legs as I watched across the lite pattern of light coming across its web.The spider really hates direct light from a hand held led flashlight I pointed one night while eating another bigger spider ,it seems like this one has a turf thing going ,a real lion in a spiders world.I usually spray or sweep down aweb but this one had me interested the first time I witness it a work building its fishing net .
