I use the hook handle to let him know that no food is coming. He decided to wrap around it quick and go for a ride.

What great colors and pattern!
He looks great.

Feliz left some urine today and weighed in at 425G, but is due to leave me something else soon, so probably a little less than that.

He's such a sweetheart when out, but continues to strike the acrylic doors with movement. Katie and I are making a drape tomorrow for him, similar to what Behira has. I don't want him hurting himself and he does not seem to growing out of this at all. Feeding every other week now probably isn't helping, but it didn't seem to matter when he was fed more frequently.

In the meantime, I got a few pics and a video of him being sweet and chill with me.

Thanks Rich.

I think the drape will do a world of good. I wish he could relax when I walk by like he does when I handle him, but it's not like I can explain that to him :).

The drape is up! Katie made the it tonight and we put it up. I walked by his tank several times feeding Ferry this evening and no strikes. YAY!

In the meantime, he's looking good!

What a beautiful face he's got! But that chin...that chin needs a tickle. :D
So now he's got drapes...what's next? His own lounge chair? :rofl:

Thanks Rich! I agree. I really didn't want him hurting himself.

LOL! He's pretty chill. Not quite Behira chill, but he will let me rub under his chin. It's the top of his head that he isn't as fond of, but he's okay with it. Behira lets me do both, but she is also much bigger and braver. I'll give Feliz some time and size.

Feliz has had the drape up for a few days and is doing great with it. He spends less time looking out and I am finding him curled up in the corner or in a hide more often. When I walk by at night, as expected, no strikes.

I am very pleased with the results, similar to Behira.

That's great news dave, at least he won't hurt himself this way
