Cool as shit. He's going to freak chicks out, if your not married.

From what I've read, temps and humidity need to be pretty high so their internal body temp doesn't drop. Like Florida on a hot day.
I rally don't think a chemicals heater would be too good of an idea what with a sealed environment and fumes....

oil radiators are sealed, but use a ton of power.

He has his own room thats currently staying around 80-85 in the day. Humidifier will be pulled out for when we hit a dry spell. Looking into options for heat in the winter though. Was going to use an oil radiator with a safety surround but now thinking of infrared as it actually heats up the objects in the room and wont get hot to the touch.

cant imagine this guy killing anyone or escaping and suddenly reproducing and wiping out a plant/animal species.

I would actually love to see a sloth infestation. Kinda like tent caterpillars but cuter.

Great pet. Looks like you are doing a good job taking care of him as well.
If you had to go on an extended trip, or hospital misadventure who would take care of him? Zoo?
As fare as the legality. Most of the animals on the illegal list are there because they pose a danger to the public and/or their owners (chimps will bight off your fingers, gouge out your eyes, and rip off your manhood if you piss them off) or pose a threat to native animals and plant life. I cant imagine this guy killing anyone or escaping and suddenly reproducing and wiping out a plant/animal species.

I am very curious now.

DETAILS!

[delatlanta1281]

So how are you climatizing your house? does he have a room he lives in that you keep warm and humid?

[Swanny]

Does he sing "I've been looking for free rent"?

Na he just defuses bombs.

Uh oh you've caught onto my secret

[mrsleeve]

Yeah I am familiar with NYS and your particular area I have spent a lot of time working around that area an up towards Cooperstown and Onenonta.

[Swanny]

Well WOW. I agree I dont think I could sleep knowing the Hasselsloth is the next room plotting my demise.

I think its cool that you can though.

I do have one question though, how did you get around NYS Exotic Pet ban laws ?? I thought NYS had an out and out ban on nearly every conceivable pet out side of the what is considered the "norm" for pets you know domestic non-hybrid cats, dogs, Non banned non native fishes and reptiles and such.

Thats NYC and Rochester. I, thankfully, live in much more rural area. Talked with the DEC and spent hours digging through the state laws regarding animals and since a sloth is its own species it doesn't fall into any banned category.

lol weird

its only weird if you get caught dude
