I posted a few pics of my BHP in another thread climbing in her cage and a few people suggested some logs to let her climb on. i installed them nice and low so she could not fall and hurt herself but she still insists on climbing the glass and trying to lay on the 3mm of glass track inside the cage.. after a lot of contorting she gets there then promptly falls 2ft.. she will do it 2 or 3 times a night as we hear the thud.. wil she ever learn that she cannot do it as i an worried she is going to seriously hurt herself. she does not seem affected at all as she will fall down and just get back up again...any ideas anyone.
stop Bhp falling

My BHP does similar. I have branches in the tank for it, low and high, and it still climbes the glass and falls down.

Same here. I was concerned at first but I have to believe that if it was causing him distress, he would quit doing it. Still here the frequent 'THUD' but whenever I check in on him, he is still cruising around, amenable to handling, etc...
at least i am not alone then.. i did put branches up higher but she had no interest in them at all so i put them lower so she could just cruise over them which she seems to do but the top of the enclosure just seems to hold an attraction to her.. maybe she has been watching the stimson in another enclosure and she thinks she is one of them.
