Congrats! Where was he?

I am glad you found him. You must be so relieved. I had one missing for 2 weeks and I was stressed big time. I found mine two feet from where she got out. Give him time he will be ok.

Close call huh?

It was probably nice and warm and dark under the dishwasher, thats what attracted him.

I have to agree with that, he had a pretty good shed two pieces and nothing left on him!! because of him shedding is the only reason I knew where he was,. another thing I though that was odd is he was across the entire apartment. Normally from what I ready they are within a few feed of the cage not over a 100 feet away
