[QUOTE="Jess S, post: 164549, member: 29302"] You're going to find now that he feeds less and climbs nonstop, searching for a female. This could lead him into trouble as he could get his tarsal claws stuck on the mesh screen and end up hanging unable to free himself. Your options are: 1. Replace the mesh with plexiglass or similar with drilled ventilation holes. If you measure up, a good hardware shop can cut a piece for you or direct you to somewhere that can. 2. Fill the enclosure with substrate high enough that if he does climb to the screen, he can still touch the substrate. 3. Rehouse. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
