Because Java is inactive, he spends most of his day on his platform. Majority of the time, his foot is flat and he doesn't have to grip a perch because his sleep perch is padded. My question is: is it detrimental for his foot to remain flat most of the time? I'm trying to figure out ways to exercise his range of motion without always having to remove him from the cage. Sorry if this is confusing to understand but it's been in the back of my mind for a few weeks. Even though all of his surfaces are padded, he doesn't have anything to grip because his grip is weak. Throughout the day he'll hold onto the side of the cage, so I'm wondering if that counts as exercise so his toes don't atrophy.
