New Tank and Desert King Pics

Well I just finished setting up a removal perch in my Desert's 33 gallon tank. "Tigre" definitely approved of his new home..He was having so much fun cruisin' the branches that he didn't want eat..He crawled out of his feed tub and headed straight back to his home.. no help required.. I just put him back in and he kept on cruisin'. Here are a few pics I took yesterday.

Enjoy

Jim

Here's one of the whole tank setup. "Tigre" uses his whole environment. I have done similiar setups for my Honduran and my Boa. Pics to follow

Although the pic is a little blurry, this is actually the best pic of "Tigre" showing his true colours. All the others make the yellow look white.

Very nice! I don't see too many Desert Kings. They should be more popular...

Think "Tigre" is a Harley approved product? He was quite taken by his reflection in the Speedo
