Flat Container: Place Bath water in large, flat, relatively shallow container; birds show by their behavior whether the container is large enough and the water deep enough. Offer Bath only 2 or 3 times weekly.
In the wild, wolf spider feeds on a large variety of insects. Give live insects of all kinds—flies, soft-shelled beetles, crickets, grasshoppers, cockroaches, adult and larval meal worms. Drop food on soil of habitat; wolf spider chases after prey. Water—Essential; must be fresh, clean, and available at all times; use small, flat container; push container down until its top edge is level with soil surface.See Also Large Container Of Water:Habits are irregular; in wild, cockateels walk through grass heavy with dew. Use large container of water container such as large container of water flower pot saucer; fill container with water and place in cage at same time each day in early morning. Remove container after about an hour, whether or not birds have bathed.
• Beds and borders against walk are particularly prone to drying out and need zr watering.
• Plants in tubs, pots, and particularly hanging baskets will need regular applications of water through the summer because they can dry out very quickly. When filling the container with compost, leave a gap between the surface of the soil and the rim of the container to allow a sufficient amount of water to be applied. Water when the top lin of the container compost dries out; aim to keep it always damp but not sodden.

Use medium-sized, flat-bottomed dish, enamel pan, old aquarium, or low aquarium jar. One egg mass in container sufficient, since eggs need room in which to hatch. Water should be cool; pro¬tect from freezing and overheating. Eggs must be well covered by water, except eggs laid on surface, such as those of bull frog, which must be placed in shallow water. Pond water is best; otherwise, use tap water if free of chlorine and other chemicals. Let container of tap water stand overnight to reach room temperature and evaporate chemicals. Change water every 2-3 days or add to it to make up for evaporation loss.
