 Wow cute homes! ?

Welcome!

Welcome noob! Haha :clap:  

@Ocelotbren haha, yeah, I've had to climb places I'd rather not climb again, I can't imagine vaulted ceilings ?

@Ocelotbren yes definitely handle them in a smaller room. One of mine kept flying out and flew to the highest spot, lol. 

@Ocelotbren yeah the males are fliers, lol

Aww, sorry for your loss

It's ok it might be ready to molt, or it could be nothing, they often pulsate like that. 

Welcome Sydney! ?
