Default Re: Zylvan, another new man in my life!

Thanks everyone
He really is the sweetest

Lizzy the white stuff with his veg is tofu, they all love it although I have no idea why!

We seem to be doing the one step forward, two steps back dance with taming at the moment & he has got quite nervous again, it's a little odd that he doesn't seem overly stressed in the taming bin but gets much more nervous in his cage bin after I've tried it once or twice so I'm giving that a rest for a bit again or he's going to stop coming out completely until it's dark & quiet.
I was thinking he maybe needs to go back into the smaller bin but he does seem more tolerant of my hand in the current one & although a bit nervous of the space obviously enjoys the things that are in there so rather than change him over I'm going to try changing the layout later today to see if that helps.
He needs a proper house anyway, with all his burrowing the Christmas pudding house is now pretty much lying on it's side & just acting as a burrow entrance while he sleeps in the substrate beside it!
I have one of the smallest granite houses to try him with which will give him a better house plus a bit of an extra level to put things on & less scary space in the middle of the cage, fingers crossed he'll like my ideas....!
