Funny because I could not get her to go in that little hole no matter what, and then after about two weeks she just decided for herself that she now likes it, and made it her home.

I have a slight case of arachnophobia. Just looking at that hole makes my palms sweaty.

Then the video in this post (http://www.formicult...-iodius/?p=9516) should really make your palms sweaty. :D

Haha. I 'noped' out of that feeding video as soon as I saw it's legs emerge from the hole. Creepy stuff.
