Falling damage? :D

So my BP likes to knock over her accurite all the time. I witnessed her doing it today and I always assumed she was just knocking it over as she crawled around it. I put it on top of her hide (which is flat on top) because if I stick it down in the substrate it reads humidity as higher than ambient since the holes are on the bottom. She's about 204g as of today (she has almost doubled in size in a little over a month!).

Anyway, I finally saw her do it tonight and she was climbing on top of it and stretching out to investigate the top of the cage. I'd say her head got up to about a 10-12" off her enclosure floor with the rest of her body on the ground. Of course, the stands on those things fold up pretty easily so when it gave out she went flopping down onto her hide and the thermometer made a nice slap sound when it folded up flat onto the hide. Anyway I was shocked and worried, but she just kept right on cruising (night-time, she always hides during the day.)

Anyone have a similar experience? Should I worry that she's going to smack herself stupid on the edge of her water dish some night and get injured? As cute as the whole thing was I don't want her to get hurt

Omg, i just had that happen right now!!!!!!! I swear, and yes, i understand what you mean about it reading super high if its stuck in the substrate, i had to move all the substrate around the accurite and now they give me the right humidity, eventhough she likes to know it down, i decided to just leave it flat agains the glass with no substrate around it
