It's the smaller one that fell! Finger's crossed! I hope I am wrong on th is and the Sling is go in into pre molt. As I keep staring through the enclosure and sling seems to be moving a little, not really moving from the spot though. All I can do is hope that's what's happened, and the fall didn't kill him/her! It just didn't occur to me till my memory was refreshed... When I baught them... The seller said the smaller one was due a molt. And its the smaller one that had the fall. Must of been a good 3.5foot fall... Enclosure went flying, cant believe I was so careless. So far theirs some movement, and I'd of guessed the sling would of died 8hr post fall? I will keep you all updated. Hopefully s/he is stressed and not dying.... That sounds dreadful! Hopefully the sling will be OK and I will learn to be more careful.</blockquote>
