Today I watched my G. pulchripes, 2+ inches dls, fill its water dish with substrate. It was pretty hilarious to watch it roll up a ball of dirt, purposely walk over to the dish (a bottle cap filled with water) and drop it in. The dish is now under an inch or so of coco-fibre and webbing.
It has done this a few times, and I've read of it as well. The reason for this behaviour is usually 'Spiders are weird'. I'm just wondering what might be the motivation for this. It can't be just to entertain me.
