[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 65111, member: 1963"] WHen husband and I were stationed in TN years and years ago, we had a gorgeous black and yellow garden spider set up house on the porch of our trailer. husband, for some odd reason, started putting grasshoppers and moths into her web for her. It got to the point that she recognized him and as soon as she saw him would run to the center of her web to wait for her 'treat'. It was fascinating to watch her run out and wrap up her prey. One day he 'twanged' a supporting line for her web and she ran all the way up his arm before realizing he had nothing for her. She was not at all a happy spider. I told him to go catch her something to eat since he'd trained her to be dependent on being fed. [/QUOTE]
