Since not much has happened with Rex besides him growing to about 14 inches in 7 months I haven't updated much.
To maintain the variations for him in feeders that he needs and his food and heat has been rather funny. Over winter with the extra dry air his humidity levels has been harder to maintain as well... I have faked more than one rain season...
he is not tame yet, but he will eat from my tweezers, he will try to bite me if I reach down too much, once in a while he will let me pet him but only so little, however he loves nailpolish and will try to eat that if I have it on my fingers.. However, his emotional responses are so good, so I know he's healthy and doing well....
I am moving in three weeks and after that I wll start building on his grown up enclosure, it will likely take up half a wall, Im aiming on doing 12-14 feet long to give him plenty of room.
Here's a video of him deciding that my fingers are NOM!!!
