Default First 4 weeks with rehomed dwarf Poppy

Hello everyone, I ahve introduced my Woody montsh ago and rehomed a Robo last month. As everyone has been so helpful on here I thought I ll let you know how I am getting on (or we )

First, here is Miss Gorgeous:



The first week was mostly spent me sitting next to her and admiring her and boring her with my stories but she has gotten used to my voice so she usually comes out and watches me, too, which is nice. I cleaned her a couple of times and it was less adventurous then I thought although she is difficult to catch (and so light!) After the first time cleaning she sat in a corner in her cage facing the wall as if for detention but was fine the next day. I don't think she is afraid as she gets into a massive box with toys and food for her "run" and she always juts gets on with things and seems quite complacent.

She loves her sand bath and digging in general, I never know where she is as I filled in the cage deeply with megazorb and she hides somewhere new every day and then comes shooting out from where you don't expect it.

She remains in general a fussy eater and swaps things she loves after a few times for something new but I am still not through with all the things on the list I made from tips people gave me here so it should be fine. And sunflower seeds are still her favourite so I am busy hiding the in new places every day. There were a few confusing things in the bags from the previous owners, like green milk drops. She likes them but does anyone know what they are? I have yoghurt drops for my Syrian Woody but I thought it may be too sweet for her and also have I never encountered green ones.

Although she is not tame I am still so happy we adopted her as she is so funny to watch and simply incredibly cute , I have taken so many pictures, she probabaly thinks she is a model So thanks again everyone for the advice, it was all much appreciated.
And here are some more pictures:

She is lovely! What a sweet little face she has.
Robo's are definitely a lot more skittish so it's good to hear you are making some progress with her.

Aww, thank you, I will tell her and pass on the compliments
Yes, it's all baby steps with her warming to me but there is constant improvements, which I am very happy about. The best thing about her (apart from her cute little mouth)she is up every morning when I get up which really makes my day instantly a good day!

Hm, Apple drops, that would fit as she loves apple. Will look out for them. Tonight I am trying broccoli. In miniature size, I still have to get used to her tiny size meals, especially as my Syrian eats like a pig (and does not look it)
