These 2 were getting a bit too big for their containers so it was time to move them up.

Orphnaecus philippinus, Mayon. This one gave me a few moments of fun, first running around the box I use as a safety precaution but soon captured in the catch cup. It was still determined not to go into its new home, this time running up my arm, jumping off and landing in the box to be caught once more. This time I put the catch cup in its new container with T in it. It's still sitting in the catch cup over 10 hours later.

I recently re-homed mine too. I was cautious and she moved over pretty easily. I can't imagine having her run up my arm. No way!

Looks like you'll be needing a new catch cup!
