mine have made a cocoon type web, normally with part of it attached to the glass and part stretched to the bark, or my A.avic made one down inside the two pieces of bark I postitioned for her, this tends to be their web all of the time, sometimes its at the top of the tank sometimes nearer the foot, then when shedding time comes they just close the web up by webbing over the entrance and shed in there.
