Allpet Roaches Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 This spider is commonly found close to rivers and prefers medium to high humidity. Adults build large orb webs similar to garden orb weavers. The orbs are generally two feet across, up to three, though the anchor lines can extend more than six feet. It is one of the only orb weavers that can feed without a web if kept in too small a container. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any spare cash at the moment, but when I do I wouldn't mind having one or two of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 I get some orange colored orb weavers by me, they create HUGE webs and if you walk into one your whole face is covered in the web, which happened to me MANY times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severus Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Sweet! That is a really cool looking spider. And Kieth, there is nothing funnier than watching someone walk into a spiderweb...Muahaha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
