Re: New Photos of my big guy

I see a little bell or something golden that looks like one, does he ever mess around with it?

I only had it in there for a few days until someone pointed out that he may be able to get his head stuck in the rings. He didn't use it while it was in there though.

Thanks Wayne! You're site was such a big help starting out. So much great information in one place.

Re: New Photos of my big guy

Interesting development today !
I was working in the enclosure today measuring out everything for the new levels, and the 'little' guy decided to come over and say hi. He crawled on my arm and was trying to jump out of the enclosure . He let me move him back inside the enclosure without getting upset or trying to bite me . I think the extra time I've been spending with him lately is really paying off.
I have to admit I was a bit nervous when he climbed on my arm as I only had the one oven mitt on and no sweater...

Re: New Photos of my big guy

Finished adding three more shelves this morning . All that's left to do is change the location of the bulbs at the second basking site, patch up the old holes from the lights, and add the shelf on the second level. I decided not to seal the wood for the shelves- its only cheap OSB board, so if it rots I'll just replace it .
I havn't installed the UV bulb yet since I'm deciding how to make a cage around the tube lights so he can't break them...
I took a video a few minutes ago, but am just waiting for it to upload. I'll post it in a few.

Re: New Photos of my big guy

I bought Toothless a mouse today as a treat, and decided to toss the empty box in there for him to mess around with. Kept him occupied for about 20 minutes .
Last ToL measurement (semi-accurate) was an inch over 3 feet. He's definately slowing down quite a bit.
