Mad Squam

Got the little boy blue out to soak for a few minutes.

I soak all my arboreals about once a week to make sure they are staying fully hydrated. It's keeping their substrate from becoming too wet from misting. Too wet of substrate can lead to scale rot.

He didn't want any part of going back into his cage, took a nice drop from the hook from about 3ft. Hopefully he'll be ok, he landed on the carpet, and I'm sure they fall out of the bush in Africa.
He was really unhappy after that, however.

Re: Mad Squam

I once had a juvi blood fall about 2-3 feet from a table when it literally jumped off the surface in an attempt to latch onto my arm...it ended up being just fine.

If a obligate-terrestrial-snake-sausage could survive a similar fall, then your arboreal will be fine

lmao @ "obligate-terrestrial-snake-sausage"..
I figured he'd be ok, it's just still one of those moments where it seems they fall and you inhale forever.
