hi guys! Kismet is doing great! I just bought him a new tank this morning
One of my employees found it at a customer's home and I only had to pay $50 for it! It's a nice big 48x12x18 with a wooden stand and everything! I let him out to check out his new digs but he was more interested in wrapping around my neck and sleeping behind my keyboard
His old home:
His new home:
I've still got to finish cleaning it up, and of course have to order my screen top for it. I've already got my plan together. I'm going to get a new UTH and drill a hole out of the wood frame for the cord to go out. He should be very happy when I'm done!
He's also gotten to be surprisingly affectionate. He will wrap around my head and then keep putting his head under my chin or around my ears. He's awesome! He's definitely not head shy either, I can touch him freely and he doesn't shirk away like he used to. I guess he trusts me now!

I think I can post a picture of that lid if you like. I'll get a pic tomorrow. It was very easy to build, wasn't expensive, and worked perfectly.
The hardest part was drilling the plexiglas so it wouldn't crack, you have to start out with a super fine bit and step up slowly or you'll ruin the plexiglas.
It is very sturdy, not overly heavy, and best of all it really helped my humidity in the large glass tank.

He's looking so good, and I'm so glad that you decided to keep him! Call me any time if you have any questions!
thanks~! I still want to get him sexed but I want to get him comfortable first. I picked him up this morning and put him in the tank and he scooted around in there like there was no tomorrow!
