Had an accident :(

[Ashlovesem]

I usually hold my hand out an let my cham climb into her cage.. Tonight while climbing in, she fell :/ atleast a 4 foot drop.. She laid in the carpet for a second on her side... Then started dragging herself by her front legs.... I was sure that her leg was broken... Now she's acting just fine, climbing and everything... What happened?? Should I be worried!?

I've had that happen before. they are very hardy though. She should be fine, though I'd still keep an eye on her just in case

Thanks so much for the quick reply... I was crying and calling people and no one seems to know much.

they can take falls suprisingly very well, they are always ready to "inflate like a balloon" and land a lot softer, their bones are light weight too, so unless she's healthy, really would worry about something like that. i've had my old multi jump from my hand about 6 feet to a hardwood floor, he was perfectly fine.
