Wyoming has no state income tax, so it sets no residency day count. You become a resident by establishing domicile, and the high-tax state you left still applies its own rules, usually 184 or more days plus a home you keep. Wyoming has no individual income tax of any kind.
Move the center of your life to Wyoming: driver’s license, vehicle registration, voter registration, and your home, financial accounts, and daily routines. Domicile is intent plus action, and auditors look at where your life actually sits. Wyoming has no individual income tax of any kind.
Because Wyoming takes no position, residency is decided by the state you came from. Most high-tax states treat a maintained home plus more than 183 days there as residency, and count any part of a day as a full day. Keep your days in that state under the line.
