think we'll just leave it as it is for now... He's had a big day today!

He's still not eating tho... Any suggestions?

As going to set him up a feeder cup on the cardboard side to put the crickets in... (a plastic cup with a cable tie on it) Think it'll work?

once his hydration level ups he should start eating nicely..thats the idea anyways. That looks much better. nice and simple which is what he needs..

ok

im a bit concerned about him... I was just looked in the tank to see if he was ok, and he was asleep. But then he stared thrashing about trying to grab onto things (while he was still asleep) and then moved to another leaf and fell asleep again.

And now he's dark all over his back, and above the upper lip, as opposed to all light when he's asleep usually..

What's happening!? Bad dream?

Poor bert...

Crying or Very sad

(was gonna ring you Karen, but thought it was a bit late...)

Sad

Are there crickets in the viv?

sounds like one touched him maybe...they thrash like wild things when touched by them in the night. They do the same in the day sometimes.
Will go stress colour then calm down..

adults vibrate instead which is much more effective. but then they have less to worry about. They aren't likely to be eaten by a cricket.

might have been falling off a leaf and need to get on to another one so he didn't fall[/i]

was just looking at him now, and he's rubbing the bit of the leaf he's lying on with his front feet... 1st on, then the other (foot)

you should all be in bed, it's a school day tomorrow!
