    I think they are awesome normal or not, no matter what. I hope they are not in any pain. They do get around their enclosure like normal. They even manage to climb to the top of their enclosure which really amazed me. They are catching flies and Moths with no problems. I would hate it if they were in pain. How would i know?

    Wild animals are really good at hiding their pain and suffering. The reason being those that are in obvious sign of distress are more likely to be picked off by predators. So, by the time they are showing them, it's because they are too sick or weak to hide it anymore.

    I took a quick video with my camera which is not very good but i just wanted to give you an idea of how they can get around.

    I cant seem to post the video. It's an MPG file. I will try tomorrow.

    I think these two are beautiful just the way they are. As for the pain bit, these two seem to have an incredible will to not only survive, but to thrive. If they were in great pain, I doubt they would be where they are today. And they would not have gotten there without your patience and determination, Ebony. They are perfect!

    I didn't mean I thought they were in pain. I don't think they are.

    I know that Paul, It just didn't occur to me that they could be in pain. Im thinking that if they were in too much pain they wouldn't want to eat.

    Ebony a quick fix for the video is to upload to youtube, they have automatic software that converts it over. Then just paste the link here and you're set. I loved the photos and wow they really have grown a lot! Are they Belle's as well?
