Hello!
Recently my P. regalis molted and is right around 2 1/2''. After the molt I changed his enclosure seeing as the old one had gotten a bit small. I put in a piece of bark and a live plant. I cleaned the plant carefully with water and boiled the cork bark (altho it had already been boiled + baked once) and put it in his enclosure. The substrate was coco fiber. I fed him 1 cricket from a batch I bought last saturday and he ate it. Since yesterday he started climbing on the enclosure's walls and stayed there. I'm noticing he's releasing venom from his fangs (or maybe it's water which I think is venom? But I'd say it's venom since a drop always appears right below his fangs). What might be causing this? Could he be dying?
By the way I noticed today the bark had caught a bit of mold so I remove it. Could that be the cause? Any ideas how to make the bark NOT catch mold?
