bathtub sessions
I'm going to start doing some taming session in the bathtub with my 3 robos, how long should the sessions be?
Thanks

Re: bathtub sessions
How long are your usual playtimes with your robos? I'd go with that long. You've not tried to tame them yet?

Re: bathtub sessions
I usually keep the robo's out untill they start huddling up and trying to get some sleep. And then still some 5 minutes or 10, seeing if I can make a little house with my hands and sneakily stroke their backs carefully

Re: bathtub sessions
They have playpen time for about 20mins, but they generally huddle in a corner and are frightened
I did initially except the fact that the robos were never going to be completely tame, but I want them to be more comfortable around me atleast. They don't bite, they just want to run away from me lol

Re: bathtub sessions
Yea robos are least likely to bite you out of all the dwarfs since they'd much rather run away. Luppi was completely tame so it's not impossible to tame a robo.

Re: bathtub sessions
I've just had them in the tub for 20 mins and they seemed alright, happily crawling all over my legs and chest. They are only shy of my fleshy parts, like my arms, hands and feet lol. Will have to video it and take pictures next time

Re: bathtub sessions
Ah, sounds good. How're they dealing with the separation by the way?

Re: bathtub sessions
In the bath, I go for 10 minutes sitting with them, then for the other 15 minutes I'll just put them in by themselves with some toys.

Re: bathtub sessions
Yeah I aim for about 20 minutes max in the bathtub, I always find myself happily watching them and end staying there the whole time

Re: bathtub sessions
Oh, the seperation is fiine, Tre is happy in his zz1. He will be moving into the mini duna today and I've ordered a fuzzbutt hammock for him too but...the only colour they had was pink lol
I thought sitting in the tub would be really uncomfortable, but it's really nice and the robos love to clamber all over me
