with all the space in that beautiful cage, he/she picks one corner? ha ha. i live in place that is warm enough for a screen cage and helga like to climb the sides too and she is really good at it for only having a few back toes. so in that last photo is he/she trying to tell us that the specie is really gecko-uromastyx?

No he/she (still am not sure) climbs on just about every surface. That was just where he was playing last night when I snapped the pics. I still haven't captured a pic of him hanging by his tail from the vine but he does that quite often when heading straight down.

He does the gecko thing on every vertical surface that has enough roughness to hold onto. The best trick is when he jumps from the upper ledge straight onto a wall and clings there.

Thanks for the compliment on the cage by the way.
