i will make him like me

ok, thanks.

So, any progress with him?

 

[Shanna66]

a little bit. he lets me pet his head but thats it, if i touch him anywhere alse he goes into a panic and god forbid i try to put my hand inder him trying to get him to crawl on me. he has seemed alot more active in the smaller tank, but that may just be because he has less plases to hide.

and my god he gets so pissy if im late feeding him. if its 9pm and his bowl is still empty he goes into another panic and runs around the bottom of the tank until i put food in there. i think i must have gotten the neurotic one when i picked him out lol

still hasnt bitten me which i guess is a good sign.

but yeah, so far i put my hand in there and pet him for a little bit 3 times a week  

[Sarahmooo]

Ah, well that's good.
A little progress is better than none, o'course

 

[Shanna66]

yup. im still so suprised he hasnt dropped his tail yet  

[Shanna66]

he let me hold him for a bit longer today ^.^ i got to pick him up and he just sat on my hand and looked around my room before he decided he was done. he still hasnt left the tank (random escaping during meal time aside xp ) but i think we may be close. he is still prone to doing leaps of faith so until he trusts me a bit more all handling sessions are in the tank only.

also when i checked on him today he was all fired up so i got to see his colors ar their best. i havent seen him that bright since the reptile show when i got him
