    my baby, Candy, for the first month I had her she would do like this thing crawl up the side of her cage and get so far up she just plops over. for some reason she became aggressive and still is but not so much anymore. there was one time she was up on her drift wood and I walked by and she kept striking at me which caused her to fall from the branch... It wasn't high maybe like 3 or 4 inches but it was funny

    Mine fall all the time. My husband turns out the lights at 11pm, and I often keep working on my laptop for an hour or two. And all I hear from the tanks for the next 2 hours is THUMP. THUMP! THUMP.

    My week-old hatchlings immediately started climbing (and falling) when I put them in the 10 gallon tank. I swear several of them have decided that falling is the fastest way off the branch. They're always out on the branches and on top of the tall hide when we come home from dinner, and they freeze when we turn the lights on. But within a couple minute of most of them start dropping off the branch and scrambling for the big hide. I've watched them to it, and they really seem to drop off ON PURPOSE. It's hysterical.

    Once upon a time I kept a large male black back in this rebuilt entertainment center due to lack of tub space.

    Did I mention he was big :D

    He was fine until he did crazy things like falling over backwards :rolleye2:

    Glad I don't have to worry about their clumsiness in a tub :P

    my girl's cage is only 12" tall & she's 35" long so she can climb to the top but always slides back down sideways but still keeps up her efforts.:rolleyes:

    Both of mine love to climb and they're pretty good at it. Infact I swear my juvenile male thinks he's a tree boa lol. He falls a lot more than the big female though and I was just wondering if a 2 foot fall would hurt him?
